For Scouts that are members of OA, there are some high adventure opportunities in Summer 2025 that are now open for registration. Requirements vary, as does availability.  

If you have a scout attending Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan, make sure that you have scheduled a physical for them prior to leaving for camp.   

Per BSA policy, any camp stay over 72 hours requires that the BSA Medical form part C be completed by a physical prior to attending that campout.   

For those of you attending Ma-Ka-Ja-Wan this summer, we are doing a T303 shirt order like we did last year. This year the available options have been expanded.  Additional shirt types are available as well as hats and water bottles.  Mr. Schoppe MUST have your order by 8:00pm on Sunday 5/19 to ensure our order is placed before orders are cutoff. Mrs. Murphy will invoice your scout account. For a list of available items, please see here: https://stores.classb.com/ma-ka-ja-wan/shop/home
