Through sun and shade, rain or hail,
Our Cub Scout spirit never fails.
We thank thee, Lord, for food and friends,
And Kirby fun that never ends!

Camp Kirby’s staff is well-trained, enthusiastic, and prepared to deliver an exciting program for Cub Scouts. The theme at Camp Kirby for 2011 is “Sea Adventure: A Pirate’s Life For Me!” The opening campfire program and all program areas have activities related to this theme. All campers are encouraged to bring a theme costume for our campfire on Saturday night. The schedule for this next summer’s program is available here:

Cub Scout Vespers:
As the night comes to this land, On my promise I will stand.
I will help the Pack to go, As the Pack helps me to grow.
Yes, I’ll always give good will, I’ll follow my Akela still.
And before I stop to rest, I will do my very best.
