In
Scouting,
districts
may hold
a
camporee
once or
twice a
year.
Typically,
the
camporee
involves
competitions,
with
events
such as
fire
building,
knot
tying,
first
aid,
emergency
preparedness,
pioneering
or
orienteering.
Some
camporees
also
integrate
work on
merit
badges.
The
camporee
may be
centered
around a
central
theme
such as
basic
Scouting
skills,
living
history,
horsemanship,
aquatics,
shooting
sports,
a
historical
trail, a
service
project.
Camporees
often
have a
campfire
program
with
awards
and
presentations,
skits
and
songs.
Camporees
also may
have a
service
project
that
helps
the
hosting
facility.
