Outside the summer camp season, buildings and campsites at Bear Paw are available for unit camping. Registered Scout units may reserve buildings for a two night stay. Each unit must provide its own leadership for their stay. Reservations may be made at the Bay-Lakes Council Center for Scouting.
Reservations for short term camping will be accepted in this order.You may think that when Summer Camp is over, Bear Paw is over. Nothing could be further from the truth. We have four fine buildings to use for fall, winter, and spring camping trips. Pick the building that best fits your needs.

The Campmaster Program is designed to bring adult volunteers and their families into camp on the weekends to allow the Camp Ranger a chance to get away. The primary responsibility of Campmasters is to provide camp security, check units in and out, and be available for emergencies. Beyond this, the requirements are what you make them.
