The Tidewater Council, Boy Scouts of America invites you back again for another year of Winter Camp at the Pipsico Scout Reservation (PSR). Held over the long Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Weekend; this four day, three night camp is specifically designed to provide a great opportunity for Scouts to hone their cold weather camping skills, complete advancement requirements, earn merit badges (some of which are not typically offered at summer camps), and have lots of fun!!

Just like a Summer Camp, all meals will be provided and served within the Dining Hall. Highlights from the event include:

  • Over 40 Merit Badge Offerings (Including 5 Eagle Required)
  • IOLS Training
  • Red Cross Wilderness First Aid Certification
  • Flag Retirement Ceremony
  • Sunday Church Services

A complete list of Merit Badge and Course Offering Schedule is located within the program Guide.  Merit Badge Counselors interested in supporting/supplementing the Winter Camp program are invited to contacted Wes Parker (wparker@pipsicobsa.com) to offer assistance.
