Campership Request Form
PROGRAM REGISTRATION
Climbing and mountain biking have a limited number of openings. These are filled on a first-come basis, so advanced registration is strongly recommended.
There are several steps to Register for Camp Programs:
Camp Laramie Peak was purchased in 1920 by a group of volunteers wanting
a place to take Scouts in the wilderness. The rugged terrain, rambling
brooks, and mountain backdrop was the ideal location.
Camp Laramie Peak is located northwest of Wheatland, Wyoming, near the
base of Laramie Peak, in the Medicine Bow National Forest. The elevation
at the Camp is approximately 6800 feet, which means we have cool evenings
and mornings. Our temperatures during camp range from the 40's at night
to the 90's during the day.
SPECIAL SCOUT AND UNIT AWARDS
Individual Scouts will have an opportunity to earn the following awards:
- Project SOAR Award
(Save Our American Resources)
- CLP Honor Troop
This web page is intended to give you basic information about Camp Laramie Peak.
The downloadable 2013
Leader's Guide contains detailed program information, copies of needed forms,
award requirements, and more.
UNIT ADULT LEADERSHIP
Each Scout unit - troop, team or crew - is required to
have at least two adult leaders in attendance at all times for each ten
Scouts. One leader must be at least 21 years of age or older. The other
leader may be age 18 or older.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
No pets (dogs, cats or otherwise) are allowed in any of the Longs Peak Council Camps.
A current Annual Health and Medical Record, with Parts A, B, and C completed within the past 12 calendar months
is required for all staff, leaders, and campers in attendance. The Colorado Camps Medical Form (fillable pdf) (even though we're in Wyoming) will also be accepted.
The Ben Delatour Scout Ranch, Elkhorn High Adventure Base, and Camp Laramie Peak seasonally
