The Fall Camporee is around the corner, Register NOW!

The Fall Camporee is around the corner, Register NOW!
We know that many Troops have existing relationships with Cub Scout Packs in the area. We encourage you to reach out to those Packs and invite their AOL Scouts to attend Camporee and if possible, host them overnight on Saturday. We will also reach out to all Cub Scout Packs in the District and provide them with information about AOLs attending Camporee.

If your Troop would like to host AOL Scouts, please reach back out to us and let us know how many Scouts your Troop would be able to host. We will pass this information along to the Packs in the District.

We look forward to seeing your Troops at Fall Camporee for a fun filled weekend of Scouting activities! If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Mission Peak will host its one and only Camporee this Fall, from September 19-21, 2025 at Rancho Los Mochos in Livermore, California!

Registration details were recently posted on Slack, and the same information will be posted to the Mission Peak District website in the coming days. Here’s a link to the registration: https://scoutingevent.com/023-88638

As with recent Camporees, registration is by Troop, with one registration per Troop. The cost for any Scouts BSA youth and adult is $28 per person. If there are Scouts from your Troop serving on Camporee staff, please include them in your Troop’s registration (select the “Youth Staff (Scouts BSA)” option)

Registration closes soon so register as soon as possible. Once your troop registers for Camporee, the registration contact can edit the registration to add more Scouts and adults, until registration closes.

This Fall, Camporee is excited to welcome AOL Scouts. We hope to show the AOL Scouts that the fun continues as they continue their Scouting journey. AOL Scouts will be invited to attend from Saturday morning and will have the option to camp overnight on Saturday night, with a host Troop. The cost for an AOL Scout and their parent/guardian is $8 per person.
