BELGRADE — Camp Bomazeen Director Julie McKenney announced the schedule for the 2022 camp season, including two weekends of Scout camp.
“The pandemic kept everyone indoors for a long time,” McKenney said. “What young people are looking for now is a chance to get outside and have fun. At 
Camp Bomazeen is on Great Pond in North Belgrade.
The schedule this summer is:
Fun Pack Weekend July 16-17. Bring your family, or your whole pack or den. This is a family event. From noon Saturday to noon Sunday, Scouts and parents will participate in sports, archery, waterfront, outdoor skills, nature, BB, and craft rotations.
Cub Scout Day Camp, July 25 – 29. The program is open for both boys and girls, Cub Scouts and non-members, currently registered in grades K-4 although those entering first grade in the fall must be accompanied by a parent. “Last summer we ran a pilot program including non-members during Day Camp. We found out that families are eager for a program for the kids like Day Camp. It takes a lot of help to run Day Camp,” McKenney said. “Any parent who comes as a Day Camp den leader will receive $100 the cost of one child to attend camp.”
Short-term Scout Camp Aug. 12-14 and Aug. 19-21. Hiking, swimming, boating, Scoutcraft and shooting sports are a few of the adventures for Scouts ages 11 through 17. Those looking for a longer experience may attend Camp Hinds in Raymond for a week or more!
Camperships. Money should never be a reason for a youth not to enjoy summer camp – those who’d like to help a kid to get to camp make make a donation to the Pine Tree Council campership fund.
