Online Registration

Are you Ready?  June 6th is approaching.  Scouting families and prospective Scouting families have asked for it, and
now it is here !

Beginning this fall, the traditional paper registration method will not be the only way to join Scouting. The Boy Scouts of America will offer online registration to meet the demand for completing the entire registration process for youth members and adult leaders more efficiently.

This is a giant leap forward in allowing prospective members and leaders to
register in a way that's convenient for them, and it creates a more efficient and user-friendly registration experience for units, districts, and councils.

Cub Scout Summer Camp

Scouting doesn't stop over the summer!
The Northern New Jersey Council operates
two amazing Cub Scout camps over the summer!
It's not too late to Sign Up! 

[The] best thing I ever did was sign the boys up for Scouts. Camping... rifle shooting, archery...and even a summer job at camp.

Life has certainly not been boring!
-Rose D.

Whether it's Cub Day Camp at Camp Yaw Paw, or Cub Overnight Camp at Camp Lewis, 
every scout and every family  deserves...and needs to go to camp! The time your child spends in the woods exploring and growing with his peers will leave a lasting impression long after he (and you) return home!

JOIN THE ADVENTURE!

GET A JUMP START ON ADVANCEMENT!
