K-M Program Guide 2024

Adult Program Adult programs and training opportunities are being developed and will be announced closer to the start of camp. Kendall Ghost-Post Units have the opportunity to do a unit-run outpost to spend the night in the ghost town of Kendall, Montana. The ghost-post will be coordinated with camp administration upon request. Units can use our Kendall campsite tents or sleep out under the stars. Adult supervision of this opportunity must be facilitated by unit leadership. The unit will sign-out at the office for the evening, and sign-in the next day upon return to the main camp facility. Polar Plunge Ready for an early morning dip in Taylor Lake? Our aquatics staff will offer this frigid opportunity on Wednesdays mornings at 6:00 each week. Program Descriptions Merit Badge Prerequisite Requirements Please note that some merit badges have prerequisite requirements that the Scout must complete away from camp. Prerequisite requirement details will be posted on our website resources. Most of these have to do with planning and executing requirements at home or time periods beyond that available at camp. Aquatics Taylor Lake is an excellent place to relax, have fun, and cool off on a hot summer day. Note: Scouts must be BSA Swimmers to take Swimming Area badges. Scout-appropriate swimwear is required. Due to the rocky shoreline, water shoes are recommended for boating and swimming activities.
