Overnight Camp
- Adults: $100
- Youth: $150
- There are many places to camp out at Cub World. As a Pack or as a family, you can decide if you would like to sleep in a bunk house near the fort, experience living in the “Wild West” in our Western Village, or if you want to battle the elements and risk sleeping in a tent near the fort.
- Fort: Campers will sleep on the bunk beds with firm mattresses. All sleeping areas in the fort are enclosed and screened for your comfort. The fort contains male and female showers and toilet facilities. There is a large individual-stall shower house near Western Village as well.
- Western Village: Experience a Western style village and bunk down in cabins with a “Western” facade. Each cabin has 4 beds with mattresses to accommodate your pack. Eight buildings are available. You can sleep in the church, store, or jail when you stay there.
- Tent Camping: For those packs looking for a more traditional camping experience, tents are available upon request on a first come, first served basis. Each tent sleeps 4 people and mattresses are provided for sleeping. These nylon tents with floors are set up in a small field next to the fort.

Leaders are the foundation of all Scouting programs. Without your involvement there would be no Cub Scouting program. Our Cub Scout program not only provides fun and exciting experiences for youth, but we try to involve the leaders as much as possible. Here are the reasons we want YOU at Cub World.
- Leaders are role models to our future members of Scouts BSA. Cub World is a fast-paced, fun-filled environment that promotes good citizenship and opportunities for personal achievement for both adult leaders and for Cubs.
- Opportunity to spend time with your child or others in your community. Cub World offers multiple opportunities to bond with Scouts, make a difference in their lives, and release your inner child.
- Each session we gather in the fort for our leader’s cracker barrel after the Cub Scouts go to bed.
- Opportunities to learn new skills. Many adults are new to Scouting. Cub World provides the skills needed to assist your child's progression through Scouting. Many activities for adults are available including fire-building, knife safety, boating, climbing and rappelling, and archery, as well as other life skills that will benefit both adults and kids.
- We have good food. Our goal at Cub World is to ensure that we not only feed our Scouts correctly, but provide delicious and nutritious food for adults as well.
- IT’S FUN! Cub Scouts, leaders, and staff participate in skits, games, and themed activities. If we can find a way to involve the leaders, we do!
