Summer Camp 2023 January Newsletter

Dear unit leaders and summer camp coordinators,


I hope your 2023 is off to a good start. I know summer camp is many months away, but I wanted to provide some information regarding the summer camp fees. You can access the 2023 fee schedule here. Our fee structure includes two different discount tiers. Each family in your unit could pay a different amount based on when they pay you, and you in turn submit payment to the Washington Crossing Council. Our deepest discounted tier is available through February 28. Let your families know so they can take advantage of this discount.


You can make multiple payments throughout the year for each discount deadline. Each payment should be accompanied by a transmittal. If you have any questions about the payment process, please reach out to Michelle Cathers via email or call 215-348-7205 x305.


Through the contributions of generous donors, the Council is able to offer a limited number of camperships which can cover up to 50% of the camp fees. The campership application is available here. The deadline for application is April 1. The campership committee meets shortly thereafter to determine award amounts.


We still have several positions available on our summer camp staff. If you have a Scout or Scouter who might be interested in working at Ockanickon, more information and an online application is available here. If you have any questions about specific positions or qualifications, please reach out to me via email.


Lastly, save the date for our online, virtual leaders meeting on Saturday, May 6th. We’ll go over the most up to date program and food service information.


As always, feel free to reach out to me with any questions via email or 215-348-7205 x318.


With regards,

Todd Warner

Director of Support Services
