CSR 2020 | Scouts BSA Summer Camp 2020 + UseLetter 11 – Summer Camp Cancelled + Announcing New Camping Opportunities

6/8/2020

0 Comments

 
It is with great sadness and disappointment that we announce the cancellation of Summer Camp 2020, at Cherokee Scout Reservation, due to continued decreases in participation.
 
With the reduced participation and lack of payments, we do not have the cash in-hand to pay our bills; therefore, we cannot successfully operate camp.
 
Please share this information with your Scouts, leaders, and families.
 
Full refunds of all fees paid will the processed within the next thirty days. Unit leaders do not need to take any action regarding refunds.
 
We will refund the full amount paid via check. Refund checks will be mailed on Friday, July 3. For in-council units, refund checks will be mailed to the Scoutmaster. For out-of-council units, refund checks will be mailed to the address on file.
 
Memorabilia pre-orders: Memorabilia has been ordered. Some has arrived at camp. We will send memorabilia orders to the unit leader for distribution to the unit.
 
Direct questions regarding refunds to Kristina Edmondson at 336-378-9166 or Kristina.edmondson@scouting.org.
 
We will announce the campsite reservation process for 2021 by July 3.
 
We look forward to you and your Scouts joining us at Cherokee for Summer Camp 2021.
