What programs are available to Cub Scouts and their leaders?

Cub World offers several programs to meet the needs of all Cub Scouts regardless of age and experience. This manual will highlight the different camps available, and be a resource for leaders to utilize.

What programs does cub World offer?

Hello,

It is that time of year to register your Scouts for summer camp. For those of you that have attended camp in the past, you know how fun it can be. If you have not attended camp before, I can assure you that Cub World will be the highlight of your summer. I am pleased to tell you that the staff is already hard at work improving the program and coming up with new activities for you and your Scouts to participate in.

Summer camp is a time for Scouts to grow in many areas of their life, and it is also time for them to make new friends and strengthen existing friendships. Our program is designed to engage both leaders and Scouts to help them develop teamwork abilities and self-confidence.

Yours in Scouting, Eric Muench L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation Director

Aquatics Information

Below is an excerpt from the BSA Aquatics Supervision

Manual regarding Swim Test.

Aquatics is one of the favorite activities at Cub World. At Cub World (and in all Cub Scout and Boy Scout activities) we take safety very seriously. To the right is the swim test that you will take upon your arrival at camp. Youth and adults who want to participate in Aquatics programs must take a swim test. Most youth that attend Cub World are at least a beginner, so do not worry if you are not the strongest swimmer. The staff at Cub World will do some swimming instruction. The paddleboats and rowboats are available to all youth no matter their swimming ability, but they must wear a lifejacket and be accompanied by an adult who has passed the swim test as a Swimmer.

Being prepared helps the check-in process go a lot more quickly. Here is a check list of everything needed upon check-in. These apply to any overnight resident camp.

• Medical Forms: For Cub Scouts and all adults staying overnight at camp (these will not be returned so please

plan accordingly). Bring copies. Keep originals. We must keep the copy that is brought to camp.

• 2 copies of your final roster: This helps us stay organized and keep track of who is at our camp!

• Medications: Each Pack is responsible for securing and distributing medications to their Scouts from the

original labeled container. If you need a secure lockbox, Cub World will have some available for you to check out.

• Swim checks will happen right after check-in, so have your swimming gear ready! Scouts and Adults can take

the swim test.

• At least one registered adult leader per pack

What do I need to have when I check in?

Cub World Program Highlights

Climbing Tower: Scaling the 16-foot climbing tower is a must for all participants at camp. All safety equipment is provided for this challenging program. This helps youth develop confidence in themselves and others.

Fitness Course: Want to test your agility and strength?

Our obstacle course has more than 10 obstacles to challenge the most active Cub Scout!

Outdoor Skills: During Outdoor Skills, youth will start learning the skills required to be a Scout. The hands-on experience of knot tying, making a fire, cooking, and camp skills is perfect for you and your scout to do together. Youth will also get to look around a handmade log cabin.

7

Cub World Program Highlights

Waterfront: Swimming in Bass Lake is one of the most popular activities at camp. There are three swimming ability classifications for Cub Scouts and adults: Non-swimmer: Cannot complete the beginner’s swimming test Beginner: Must be able to jump into water over their heads, level off, swim 25 yards, turn, and return to starting point. Swimmer: Must be able to swim 75 yards in a strong manner, 25 yards using the elementary back stroke, and at the end of the 100 yards rest by floating. NOTE: Instructional time will be available for Cub Scouts to learn how to swim or improve their current skills. Boating will be available under the direction of the Aquatics Director.

Shooting Sports:

Cub Scouts will be able to receive instruction in archery, B.B. Guns, and rock throwing.

Handicraft: All Cub Scouts enjoy it. It offers many crafts to challenge the most creative Cub Scout.

Nature: The 1450 acres of L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation provide a perfect classroom for young Cub Scouts. The reservation is an ideal environment for deer, bald eagles, loons, porcupine, beaver and much more. If fishing is your game, then be sure to bring your fishing gear.

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 Scouts. 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!

• We celebrate your involvement! Every session, after the Cub Scouts go to bed we gather in the fort for our leader’s cracker barrel. It is a time to play games, unwind, tell stories, make friends, and just relax!

• 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!

Cub World: The adult experience

Leadership Policy

We strongly encourage every adult attending camp to take Youth Protection Training.

Each unit attending Cub World must have a minimum of two BSA registered adults with the group at all times, plus one additional adult for every 4 cubs attending. (8 Scouts = 2 adults; 9-11 Scouts = 3 adults; 12-15 Scouts = 4 adults).

Adults must be at least 21 years of age and can be male or female. They are expected to keep order among the Cub Scouts in the campsite and give direction to their movement from one area to another as the schedule permits. You are to ensure there is adult supervision at all times.

It is important that camp know in advance how many male and female adults will be attending with your Pack. Please indicate that on your online registration. Tiger/1st Grade scouts must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.

15

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!

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.

Housing

Facilities

Cub World has shower facilities located near the Handicraft Building. This allows us to better accommodate the number of Scouts and adult leaders that can shower each night. Having extra showers and restrooms also offers convenience for guests that are staying in our Western Village.

Fort Rice also contains male and female restrooms and showers, a fully refurbished kitchen, a dining hall, and a NEW mini-trading post to offer convenience for those last-minute purchases!

Cub Scouts and adults will sleep in the comfort of Fort Rice or Western Village (cabins) or if desired, tents. Campers sleep on 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. Meals are served in the new Cub World Dining Hall.

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, jail, etc. 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; mattresses are provided for sleeping. These nylon tents, with floors, are set up in a small field next to Fort Rice.

Food Service

Meals at Cub World are cooked on the Boy Scout side of L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation and then transported over to Cub World by our trained kitchen staff. Have a Scout or a leader with special dietary needs? Don’t worry! Cub World accommodates for all types of eaters. When we are informed at check-in of dietary needs and allergies, we adjust our menu as necessary.

Requirements, rules, regulations

HEALTH HISTORY: Health history is of utmost importance to the safety and proper care of Cub Scouts and adult leaders. The completed, appropriate health form for each individual must be presented at check-in time. To speed up check-in, you may send copies of all health forms to the Scout Service Center two weeks prior to your arrival. This will give the medical officer time to review the forms for any discrepancies. If a problem is found, you will be notified. NOTE: All Health forms require that the parent sign the form. If your Scout has allergies, please fill out the Allergy Fact Sheet so we may have more detailed information about your child and are able to take care of their specific needs. This is available at www.campphillips.org/cub-scouts. **Without a properly completed health form, you will not be allowed to stay at camp. Adults must make sure the appropriate form is filled out completely. All unusual or special needs should be noted on the health form. The Health Lodge at L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation has a qualified Health Officer on-call 24 hours a day. Minor scrapes and cuts are handled by the Health Officer. If the injury is serious, the camper will be taken to the local hospital in Rice Lake. An adult from the unit should accompany the Cub Scout going to the hospital. The second adult and a staff member will stay with the Pack. All medication is to be maintained in original containers in a secured location by the leaders of each Pack (Lockboxes available to check out). If medication needs to be in a temperature controlled environment please mention that upon check-in and work with the Cub World Commissioner.

General HEALTH Information

Trading post

To ensure that Cub Scouts do not lose their money, we recommend that one of the leaders bring a lockbox to camp. Each Cub Scout in your unit should write his name and the amount of money on an envelope, put his money inside, and deposit it in the lockbox. The Cub Scouts can go to the Trading Post during their open time. The leader can bring the lockbox with them to the Trading Post or can hand out money before they go. When the Cub Scout takes his money out of the envelope, he writes how much he took and initials it. If he has money left after visiting the Trading Post, he can put it back in his envelope. This may be a little more work, but it will greatly reduce the amount of money lost by your Cub Scouts. Cub World will offer a Mini-Trading Post on location for those last-minute buys! This will offer convenience, accessibility, and alleviate some stress for those who forgot some of the essentials! T-shirts, Cub Scout-related items, handicraft projects, candy, and soda are available for purchase at the Trading Post.

Help improve L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation

OA Fellowship Weekends: Each year, the Otyokwa Lodge hosts both a Spring and Fall Fellowship weekend at L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation. Along with great food, exciting ceremonies, and time to bond with fellow Scouts, OA members have the opportunity to help keep Camp Phillips running smoothly through service projects. Last year the Otyokwa Lodge contributed 3,000 service hours to Camp during these two weekends! These events are open to any and all OA members from any Lodge, just visit www.bsa-cvc.org for more information.

Phillips Rangers: Are you an adult leader looking to gain a sense of pride and ownership in L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation? Do you enjoy participating in construction, maintenance, and other service projects? Than become a Phillips Ranger! Volunteers like you have helped Camp Phillips to stay on the cutting edge since opening its doors in 1952. Ranger Mike hosts two Ranger Weekends each year where ADULT volunteers take on larger projects to improve and maintain camp. Recent projects have included the Rifle Range expansion, the new fence and boat racks at the Marina, and the Med Lodge building remodel. Specifically we are looking for tradesmen (masonry, electricians, plumbers, carpenters, etc.) but are glad to have all the help we can get.

Campsite Improvements: Units are welcome to make improvements to their temporary home during their stay at L.E. Phillips Scout Reservation. Many of the fire pit benches, flagpoles, garbage can holders, and other amenities in campsites are the work of Scouts like yours! Feel free to bring tools and materials to camp, and make sure to run your ideas by the Camp Commissioner before starting improvement projects.

1) Attending Cub Scout summer camp is an integral part of the Cub Scout experience. It’s just as important as

attending Den meetings, earning badges, or racing in the Pinewood Derby.

2) Parents of Scouts who attend Cub Scout Camp are more likely to get involved in your Cub Scout Pack as active adult volunteers. 3) Adults can rotate in and out during the session as long as your Pack always has a minimum of two (one adult attends Friday - Saturday and another attends Saturday - Sunday). 4) Cub Scout Summer Camp is a comfortable outdoor experience. Join us for balanced, nutritious meals prepared by our kitchen staff; recharge while sleeping in a cabin or bunkhouse or tent; and clean up after the day’s activities in the indoor bathrooms with showers. 5) Financial assistance (camperships) is available for Chippewa Valley Council families with a financial need. 6) Scouts who attend summer camp are more likely to stick with Cub Scouting, resulting in more boys learning the great values of the Scouting program. 7) All program areas are operated by our trained, knowledgeable, and passionate camp staff. Your role as an adult is to have fun with your Scouts and help them move throughout the day’s schedule. 8) Scouts learn new skills at Cub Scout Camp, giving them confidence in their abilities to face challenges as they begin and move through the new school year. 9) Scouts make new friends at Cub Scout Camp with scouts in their own Pack, and with other Cub Scouts from the area. 10) Adults attending Cub Scout Camp report that they have just as much fun as the youth do!
