Welcome to North Star District's Cub Camp 2018!
I want to thank you and your unit if you have already registered online and submitted paperwork for this years North Star District Twilight Camp. I encourage those that still need to turn in the paperwork to finish it up as quickly as you can and submit to Carolyn Lane, Ben Segars or David Beard this Saturday morning. To further facilitate this, I would like to send you a link to a shared Google Drive of this year’s Twilight Camp Documents that will also become available on the District website soon. The documents include paperwork to be used when submitting the registration forms but also include additional guides for leaders and parents to help plan and prepare everyone for this exciting week.
If you have not already done so, please review the following to complete the forms and organize them into groups for the specific participants to facilitate the turn-in this Saturday morning.
