Summer Camp

Troop 10 attends summer camp every August at Griswold Scout Reservation in Gilmanton Iron Works, New Hampshire.

Summer camp is one of the highlights of the Scouting year. Griswold offers a wide range of programs and activities, including sailing, swimming, merit badges, outdoor skills, and traditional summer camp activities. Scouts have the opportunity to try new things, build friendships, develop new skills, and experience the independence and adventure that make Scouting special.

Summer camp is also an important part of building a strong troop. Scouts who participate return with new skills, experiences, and enthusiasm that they can share with the rest of the troop.

Register Early!

Early registration means more programming choices and less last-minute chaos. Please take a few minutes to complete the Pre-Registration and Adult Volunteer forms when they become available.

To provide the best possible camp experience, we need to know whether your Scout plans to attend by March. We also need enough adult volunteers to provide the required supervision.

Adults are encouraged to join us! Spending a week at summer camp is a great way to get involved with Troop 10, support the Scouts, and enjoy the camp experience yourself. It is a rewarding experience and, with a good team of adults, doesn’t have to be a heavy lift.

Financial Assistance

Troop 10 believes that no Scout should be excluded from summer camp because of financial hardship.

If your family needs financial assistance, please contact our Campership Chair, Charles Hatvany, at charles@hatvany.com. All requests for assistance are handled confidentially.

We want every Scout to have the opportunity to experience summer camp, regardless of their family’s financial circumstances.
