CUB SCOUT RESIDENT CAMP
Pipsico Resident Camp at Pipsico is an overnight camping experience. Cub Camps are family friendly
and open to every level of Cub Scouting, plus siblings, family members, and den chiefs are more than
welcome to join in the experience.
Pipsico is the perfect spot for your family to have a great outdoor adventure. It has 916 acres of land,
with a mile of unspoiled beach on the bank of the James River in Surry County, Virginia. It is home to
bald eagles, blue herons, wild turkeys, deer, and much more. On the beach you will find fossil remains
of sharks and whales amongst shells and fossils pouring out of the cliffs on our beach. Facilities include
an air-conditioned dining hall, a swimming pool (with handicap access), shower and latrine facilities
(for both male and female participants), a fully equipped health lodge, a trading post, shooting ranges,
and more.
All Cub Scouts, leaders, den chiefs, parents, and siblings are encouraged to participate in the theme
during their stay at Pipsico. As you travel through the day’s activities, everyone will participate in
hiking, games, and swimming; however, some activities are just for our Cub age participants, such as
craft, and shooting sports.
Cub Scout Packs are highly encouraged to designate one “camp coordinator” for the purpose of
registration and passing information back and forth between the Tidewater Council and the families
attending Cub resident camp. Doing so will increase the efficiency and overall planning experience. If
your Pack is not planning to attend, families may register as an individual unit.

CAMPSITES
Every campsite in Pipsico is divided into patrol sites. Larger Packs may have a campsite to themselves,
while smaller Packs may share a campsite, each occupying their own patrol site(s).
Every campsite has a latrine facility with a washstand, running water (for washing and drinking), trashcan,
shovel, rake, and hose. The tools serve as fire control equipment and the hose also helps to clean the
latrine. Throughout the site are some picnic tables, common bulletin board will have a Fireguard Chart,
which should be completed on check-in day. Most patrol sites have an established fire ring, where you
are welcome to have Pack or den campfires in the evenings. Please do not dig into the ground to form fire
pits as our tree roots could catch fire. There is ample dead wood on the ground around camp, which you
are welcome to cut and burn; do not cut any standing trees or saplings. For safety, you should establish a
properly marked ax yard for adult use only. There is wood available in the Axe Yard too. Platform tents
measure 9 ft. x 7 ft. and are equipped with two army-style cots each. For your sleeping comfort, we
recommend each camper bring a mosquito net and poles to support it (these may be lashed to the cot
legs.) Mosquito nets are available for purchase in the Trading Post. Personal tents ARE permitted.
Hot showers are available at the pool for youth & adults. A shower house with individual full bathrooms
is located between campsites 9 and 10 and is open to all.
