Winter Summit 2023

Due to various circumstances, Aloha Council will be conducting a short-term, 3-night Winter Summit this year. It will be held from Wednesday, December 27 – Saturday, December 30, 2023.

Annual Health and Medical Record forms Parts A-C are REQUIRED to attend Winter Summit.

As this will be a short-term camp, we will have a shorter period of time to work on Merit Badges. The loose schedule for camp will be as follows:

Wednesday – check-in, set-up

Thursday – merit badge classes (4 class periods)

Friday – merit badge classes (4 class periods)

Saturday – make-up time, breakdown, check-out

We are looking to offer Eagle required merit badges along with elective merit badges. Eagle merit badge classes will be 3 hrs each day for a total of 6 hrs of class time. Elective merit badge classes will be 1.5 hrs each day for a total of 3 hrs of class time.

We are asking troops that are attending, that they have at least 1 adult attending to teach a merit badge(s). If they are a registered Merit Badge Counselor and would like to teach any of the following classes, please let us know immediately. Most listed should be able to be completed in the timeframe above but also understand that there may be a few that will earn “partial” credit and will need to follow up on their own time after camp.
