National Camping School Emblem Meaning

  • The elk antlers refer to the great outdoors and the conservation of wildlife.
  • The 13 points on the antlers indicate the 12 points of the Scout Law and the duty to God.
  • The red outer circle represents the aquatic program, which holds the number one interest for boys in the camp program.
  • The teepee stands for the tent camper, the shelter a real camper sets up for himself. The three teepee poles represent the three fingers of the Scout sign.
  • The green inner circle stands for the green of all growing things in the out-of-doors.
  • Though you can’t see him through the teepee door, there is a boy in the teepee looking for the great adventure of real camping in the Boy Scouts of America. Our job is to fulfill and even surpass his high expectations.
