Campership Assistance Application

MECKLENBURG COUNTY COUNCIL
BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA
CAMPERSHIP ASSISTANCE APPLICATION
Purpose: To make participation available to deserving youth who would otherwise be unable to attend camp. In
administering funds, great care must be exercised in order that only those youth who need and deserve financial
assistance shall be aided, and that the details shall be handled in such a way as to cause no embarrassment to the
youth or his family. All youth who receive camperships will be required to earn or provide part of the fee, in
keeping with the Scout Law-“A Scout is Thrifty”-unless conditions known to the Scout leader are such that this is
impossible.
th
Applications for all scouts should be returned to the Scout office by April 14
. Campership requests for Camp
st
Grimes submitted by April 1
receive priority consideration. Under normal conditions, the campership
approved is 50% of the total fee. If there are unusual circumstances, the Campership Committee will consider a
th
larger portion of the fee. Applications received after April 30
will be expected to pay 50% of the camp fee, as
funds will be limited if deadlines are not met.
A deposit of $10.00 needs to be paid when the application is turned in at the Scout office. The balance is due no
later than 14 days prior to the event.
