FRONTIERS CAMP
Mt. Norris Scout Reservation, Eden, VT

Summer 2020 Remote Rendezvous

Starting on Monday June 29, we will provide 7 weeks of planned programming, in a combination of video, “live” Zoom-type meetings, and livestream, that will share our Staff Crew passions for the skills we all so love about Frontiers Camp.  This is not in any way intended to “replace” a week of camp with us, but may just set you up to win that next Thursday feast lashing or sign language contest when we see each other again in 2021. 

These weekly events are available to all youth members of Scouts, BSA. Our Monday Skill Videos and Physical Challenges can be viewed by all. If you have never attended Frontiers Camp and wish to be a part of our "live" Wednesday sessions, please email us at Frontierscampvt@gmail.com to request access.   
​
Each week is broken into three parts:
  • On Mondays, a “Skill Challenge” video and “Physical Challenge” video will be posted to our YouTube channel.  Watch this at your convenience, and if you get the skill, or learn a new technique, awesome.
  • On Wednesdays, join members of our Staff Crew for a live Zoom, where you can practice the skill and get pointers on how to take it to the next level, or just come join the comradery of seeing people you may only see once a year. Please email us at Frontierscampvt@gmail.com to receive the link for this weekly event.
  • On Fridays, you can choose to show us what you know – send us a video of you doing the skill you learned, or give it a twist and show us how you’ve applied that skill to something at home.  Your videos don't have to be fancy so don't be held back worrying about the video quality.

The buttons below will change color from brown to orange as each button becomes live with an actual link behind it. At that point you'll be able to click the button in order to access that content.

Frontiers Camp is a unique resident specialty summer camp program offered for eight days and seven nights (Saturday through Saturday) and presented once each summer for BSA registered Boy Scouts and Venture Crew members at the Mount Norris Scout Reservation located in Eden Mills Vermont.

Frontiers' Camp is centered around the activities of a 1830s-style mountain man American frontier rendezvous. The goal of Frontiers' Camp is to develop self-reliance, team-work, and moral and ethical judgment in a hardy eight-day, seven-night BSA resident camp using Scouting and other approved programs (such as State Hunter Education and NRA)  using a proven, experienced, and all-volunteer staff of over 60 (85% adults). Our goals are: fun, leadership development, advancement and merit badges. All staff members are hand selected from previous Frontiers Camps and are volunteers who are well trained and very capable. All merit badge and rank instruction is provided by the adult staff.
