Camp season 2025 is nearing for the Northwest Georgia Council of Scouting America.
Eric Vaughn, council board member, says that Camp Cards are now available for purchase at a cost of $10. Buyers may enjoy discounts at local businesses in exchange for their support of scouting.
Camp Cards may be obtained online at www.nwgascouting.org or from any scout. Proceeds from the sale of these cards will support camp scholarships.
Some of the scouts look forward to spending time at Camp Sidney Dew in Armuchee, while others will head west to Philmont in New Mexico over the Summer, enthuses Vaughn.
New scouts and volunteers are sought by the Northwest Georgia Council of Scouting America year-round, adds Vaughn, who urges locals to join.
Over a month has passed since the organization previously known as the Boy Scouts of America officially transitioned into Scouting America. The name change coincided with that organization’s 115th anniversary celebration back on February 8, 2025 and is intended, attests Vaughn, to reflect an increased inclusiveness.
