Summer Camp 2026

It’s not too early to start thinking about Summer Camp 2026. We will begin collecting deposits in January 2026.

Medical Forms

Medical forms are valid for one year only. If you plan to attend summer camp, you will need a current medical form that has not expired.

Summer camp requires Parts A, B1, B2, and C, along with a copy of your health insurance card.

Please do not wait until the last minute to submit updated forms.

The Annual Health and Medical Record can be found here:

Annual Health and Medical Record | Scouting America

(Note: Part C is located under the section for camping longer than 72 hours.)

Scout Sunday

Troop 132/1132 visits a different local church each year for Scout Sunday. This year, we will attend:

Date: Sunday, February 8, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM
Location: Moscow United Methodist Church

This special service celebrates the connection between Scouting and faith communities. Scouts and families are encouraged to attend and participate.

Rechartering

You may have received a notice stating that your Scout is not registered. Please rest assured, this is not the case.

Troop 132/1132 has already paid the national individual scout registration fee for all Scouts who registered since September and whose membership would have expired before December 31, 2025. A Scout is considered registered once their payment and paperwork are submitted to the Council Office.

Our Troop will also be completing the unit rechartering process. The NEPA Council has until March 1, 2026, to submit the overall Council Charter to the National Office.

Unfortunately, the new national system is currently sending automated emails and text messages in error. Units across the country, including ours, have raised concerns about these incorrect notices.

If you have paid your dues please disregard any “not registered” messages you receive. Your Scout is fully registered and in good standing. If you have not paid or are unsure if you paid please see a leader at our upcoming meeting.
