2025 Camp Barstow Staff

Are you prepared to spend 5 1/2 weeks this summer making friends and having the time of your life working from sun up til sun down? The staff is what makes a Scout summer camp special.  It’s the secret sauce that can turn an ordinary campfire into a hilarious event that you tell your friends and parents about later.  The staff are the ones that sing that favorite song that you can’t get out of your head for weeks after you return home.  They are also the ones that take time to get to know your name and are there to help you learn a new skill or encourage you to finish the badge.
