All the information you need to sign up for camp.
Please read through this entire page before signing anyone up.

Quick Facts
Leaders Required
All units must provide adult leadership at camp, unless the youth(s) attending are Provisional Scouts or Provisional Venturers. There is no provisional program for Webelos Resident Camp. If a contingent is only a parent/child combination, that is acceptable.
Who Registers?
Only one person, the Unit Registrar, should manage the registration, enter information, and make payments on behalf of the unit. (Parents should contact their unit registrar to register their youth to go to camp.)
Reserve Your Spot
To reserve your unit’s spot, the unit registrar needs to enter their unit information and register 1 youth (and 1 free adult, for Webelos). This youth will be your Deposit Scout and will hold spaces for the rest of the unit.
The number of spaces held will be based off the Estimated Youth and Adults field you fill out in the Registration Contact’s information.
All Goshen camps will be in deposit mode until November 1, 2021.
Password?
There are two options for creating a registration: make an account or continue as a guest. Regardless, you’ll still be able to access your registration. Need to get back into your registration?
Adding Campers
Units will be able to add campers beginning on November 1, 2021.
Add campers to your roster only when you are ready to pay for them. The registrar does not need to know exactly how many people are coming to reserve space at camp. Additional attendees can be added to your registration as youth and adults commit.
Free Adult Policy!
Every unit will receive two free adults, regardless of the unit size. The system will automatically subtract the cost when you go to Make a Payment.
Pay in Full
Each participant will need to pay in full to be considered registered for Goshen Summer Programs.
Camperships
If you plan on applying for a campership for a youth, please DO NOT pay for them right away. Voucher codes will be sent out after camperships are awarded.
Other Helpful Information
Sign up for MBs
Scouts need to be paid in full before they can sign up for the various programs, such as Merit Badges.
Choose your campsite?
When you register your unit, you may list any campsite preferences. We’ll take those into account when placing your unit in your campsite for the week!
Webelos Ratios
We require a 1:4 adult to Webelos/AOLs with a minimum of 2 adults per unit. To give all the Webelos & AOLs the best program, please avoid a 1:1 adult to youth ratio.
Splitting Adults
If you have adults that are splitting the week (one comes down for the first half and the other comes down for the second half), register them as one full adult.
Camperships & Vouchers
If you have a voucher code for a campership or some other program, like popcorn, make sure the Scout’s name and unit match those from the application. If they are bridging into Scouts and you need to update the unit information, please let us know.
Credit Card Service Charge
Due to a change in policy in our Council, there is now a service charge for credit cards when registering for camp and other events. There is no service charge for e-checks.
Registering a New Troop
New Troops can go ahead and sign up for camp, even if they don’t have an official Troop number yet. Use the National Capital Area Council Troop 1 (Girl Troop Placeholder Unit) to register. We’ll use the unique registration number and your email address to identify your registration. Once you get your official Troop charter, let us know and we’ll help you change it on your registration.
Carrying Over Credits

Adult Requirements
At any time, a Unit must have two adults over the age of 21 who are registered with the BSA. If there are female youth members, one of those adults must be female.
Adults, anyone ages 18 and up, who are present at camp for 72 total hours need to be registered with the BSA and need to have current Youth Protection Training. The 72 hours do not need to be consecutive.
Everyone in camp must have Parts A & B of the BSA Medical Form. Any youth or adult camper staying for more than 72 hours and/or participating in camp activities must also have Part C and the NCAC Health Advisory.
Lenhok’sin High Adventure requires additional training. Please visit the Lenhok’sin High Adventure page to see what training is required for your chosen trek.

2022 Refund Policy
If the unit cancels, the deposit payment (the cost of one Scout) may be saved as credit for the unit OR a refund may be requested for a limited time.
If an individual cancels, a replacement scout may be found, the cost may be saved as credit for the unit, OR a refund may be requested for a limited time.
- Refund Requests
- On or before August 1, 2022: A refund of 85% of registration costs will be granted for any reason by request through our Refund Request online form. Only requests from unit leaders will be honored (parents, please work through your unit to receive a refund).
- After August 1, 2022: Registration costs may be donated or saved as rollover credit.
Non-registration fees (i.e. ATV, Shotgun, Robotics, bus fare) are non-refundable. All refunds will be subject to final review in the Council office before the check is issued. Online payments options will be credited where possible, or paper checks will be issued to the unit.
Camperships
Each summer, funds from the Greg Augustine Campership Fund are made available to help campers be able to attend a week of summer camp and have meaningful experiences.
The Campership Committee will convene and make award designations. Requests received after the due date will only be considered if funds are still available.
If you plan on applying for a campership for a youth, please DO NOT pay for them right away. Please do not pay for the camper until you have received a response from the Campership Committee. Camper aid will not be awarded or refunded to registrants who have secured funding from other sources and have already made a payment online. Be sure to notify your Goshen unit registrar that you plan on applying for a campership for your youth.
Voucher codes will be sent out after camperships are awarded.
Due March 1st
We are still accepting applications and will be granting camperships as funds allow.
