The 2025 Summer Campership is financial assistance that helps a young person attend a summer camp. Camperships are usually need-based for youth who cannot afford the full cost of camp. Circle Ten Council supports Scouts by providing financial aid to ensure every Scout can experience the magic of camp, regardless of financial constraints. These scholarships foster growth, resilience, and lasting memories.
