*NEW* GSR LOYALTY REbate
All rebates are non-transferable and cannot be combined with other units.
Daniel Webster Council is introducing a loyalty rebate to all units; this includes out-of-council units. If you attended Griswold Scout Reservation in 2023 & 2024 and will attend in 2025, you will receive a 3% rebate on paid attending youth. This rebate will be credited to your unit account or sent to your respective Council for credit into your respective unit account at the end of the season and after all weeks have been reconciled. After this inaugural year, the following rebate schedule shall apply.
For example, in 2025, if you return after attending in 2023 & 2024, your unit will receive a 3% rebate at the end of the season. Assuming you have 7 paid youth at the early bird fee, your unit would receive a credit to your unit account of $117.60 (7 youth x $560 = $3,920 x 3%).
Years Camped at GSR | Rebate % |
---|---|
First Two Years | 0% |
Three Years | 3% |
Four Years | 4% |
Five or More Years | 5% |
*NEW* GSR Growth Rebate
All rebates are non-transferable and cannot be combined with other units.
Daniel Webster Council is introducing a growth rebate to all units, including out-of-council units. If you increase the number of youths attending resident camp from the previous year, you will receive a growth rebate, as shown in the table below. The rebate is only applied to resident camp fees and is not applicable to any other program fees.
For example, if your unit brought 5 youth in 2024 and 7 youth in 2025, then at the end of the season, you would receive a 2% rebate. Assuming all 7 paid the early bird fee, your unit would receive a credit to your unit account of $78.40 (7 youth x $560 = $3,920 x 2%).

1 - 5 Additional Youth | 2% |

Cancellations & Refunds
Deposits are non-refundable.
The Daniel Webster Council will refund the balance of a registration fee in the following conditions: (1) a Pack or family notifies the Daniel Webster Council Program Department, in writing, of a camper cancellation at least two weeks before scheduled arrival; or (2) in cases of injury or illness within two weeks of scheduled arrival, the pack or family sends a letter from a healthcare provider (MD, DO, PA, or nurse practitioner) with the refund request. Daniel Webster Council will refund fees for chartered pack sleepover camper cancellations to the pack in these cases. No refunds will be issued for attendees who leave camp after arrival for illness, injury, or behavioral challenges.
Apart from these circumstances, packs are responsible for paying the registration fees for no-shows. Even when packs or families provide two weeks’ cancellation notice, deposits are non-refundable. If the entire pack cancels its reservation, site fees are non-refundable. All space is available on a first-come, first-served basis for those paid in full. Payments are transferable to another camper.
Pre-Camp Leaders Meetings
All pre-camp leaders meetings will be held on Zoom. Pre-registration is required.
