2024 Northern Lights Spring Cub Camporee

Are you ready to get outside and challenge yourself? 

How far will you go to prove that Fear is not a Factor for You?

 

Cub Scouts Pack 57 proudly presents “Fear Factor” at Citta Scout Reservation.  Are you ready to get outside and challenge yourself?  How far will you go to prove that Fear is not a Factor for You?  Would you: 

  • Slip and slide into a pool filled with worms (spaghetti)?
  • Put your hand into a bucket filled with real bugs?
  • Smash an egg (or water balloon) on your own head?
  • Eat a sardine, or a chocolate covered grasshopper?
  • Walk the unstable balance beam?
  • Climb a rock wall?
  • Take on our Team vs. Team obstacle course?

All of these and more will be waiting to be conquered during our full-day Fear Factor team event! Six teams of scouts will meet in the morning on the parade field, to compete head-to-head on our obstacle course. Are you brave enough to climb the cargo net? Will you get dirty on the army crawl through the mud?

Teams will then move around to six different stations, with a lunch break in the middle, so that all scouts get a chance to participate in each of the various Fear Factor challenges – Heights, Balance, Cold, Food, Bugs, and general Grossness.  All challenges are optional, but every scout who bravely completes one will have the opportunity to earn points for their team!

At the end of the day we’ll gather around the closing campfire ring to celebrate our bravery, our team spirit, and all of the new things we conquered that we didn’t even know we could. Scouts will walk out proud of their accomplishments, dirty, and exhausted

IMPORTANT: This is not for the faint of heart, or for the clean of shirt!  Leave your Class A uniforms at home, unless you really enjoy cleaning them.

Where: Joseph A Citta Scout Reservation (229 Brookville Rd, Barnegat NJ)
