The summer adventures of the 583 wouldn’t have been possible without the vision, dedication, and hard work of the staff of Cub Scout Day Camp, Camp Akela, and Bear Creek Summer Camp. Staffing camp can have its challenges, but these Scouts and Scouters remain flexible and believe in the mission of Scouting. These adults and youth are changing lives – that’s not an exaggeration. For some of their campers, it’s their first time away from home. For others, it’s the first time on the range. These are moments that campers will never forget…the very foundation that has made most of this year’s camp staff so eager to be counselors themselves.
Our volunteers and staff not only ensured the safety and enjoyment of our campers, but also served as role models, mentors, and friends. They taught essential skills, from knot-tying to archery, and instilled values of teamwork, leadership, and perseverance. Their enthusiasm and dedication were evident in every activity, campfire story, and badge earned.
A special thank you goes to our camp directors, program leaders, and support teams. Your behind-the-scenes efforts made everything run smoothly, allowing our Scouts to focus on having fun and learning. Your commitment to excellence is the backbone of our success.
We also want to acknowledge the families of our volunteers and staff. Your support and understanding allowed your loved ones to devote their time and energy to Scouting, creating unforgettable experiences for countless young people.
As we look back on this summer, we are filled with gratitude and pride. The positive impact of your hard work will resonate for years to come. Thank you for your unwavering dedication to the Boy Scouts of America and for making this summer an extraordinary adventure for all.
We salute you!
