2026 Scouts BSA STEM + Skilled Trades Summer Camp
July 19 to 25, 2026
Camp May at Beaumont Scout Reservation
📢 Time to enroll for one of the most unique camp experiences in Scouting! 🙌
Now celebrating its 13th year, STEM & Skilled Trades Camp blends cutting edge science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and skilled trades with the overnight camp experience Scouts love. ⚜️
Each Scout chooses either the Merit Badge or the NOVA Award Track, while our incredible Program Director carefully crafts a jam-packed schedule built just for them! Every Scout’s week is intentionally designed to maximize learning, earning, and fun. 💪
With more than 60 merit badges and all 11 NOVA awards available, Scouts experience a week thoughtfully tailored to their interests and goals while still enjoying Camp May adventures. ⛺
From Robotics, Welding, Aviation, and Engineering to Archery, Space Exploration, Plumbing, Entrepreneurship, Nuclear Science, and more, this is a camp designed for curious minds and future builders! 🤖🥽✈️⚙️🎯🚀🛠️⚛️📻🤯
Afternoons and evenings are packed with games, movies, inflatables, patch trading, exploring hands-on STEM + classic camp activities and more! Scouts can experiment with drones, 3D printing, chemistry labs, CNC routers, laser engraving, electronics, and trades simulators. They can also cool off in the pool, sharpen their aim on the range, climb the tower, compete in chess and math challenges, explore the Trading Post, and gather around the campfire with friends and counselors. (WATCH OUT FOR THE BEAR HUNT!!! 🐻)
👉 This is not a typical summer camp week!! 👈
💫 It is an immersive experience where Scouts live at camp while diving deep into innovation and real world skills. ✨
Scouts may attend individually or with their troop. Only 160 spots are available, so act soon!
(After registering, families will receive the Program Manual and instructions for selecting merit badges and NOVA awards. Track selection and badge choices begin later in the spring.)
If your Scout wants a week that blends innovation, adventure, and classic camp spirit, this is the place to be! 🫡🖖
