4. Popcorn Certificate Rollover
Through the process of restructuring the dates for Camp Emerson in the month of July, the California Inland Empire Council offered all units with 2020 Summer or Family Camp reservations an opportunity to change their dates, request a refund, or have their reservation rolled over to 2021.
After further consideration, the California Inland Empire Council will roll over 2020 popcorn certificates into 2021 for Camp Emerson Summer or Family Camp reservations.
Popcorn certificates are issued on an individual Scout basis and not to the group, unit, Pack, or Troop for use. Camp will be in operation this July following all guidelines provided by the Riverside County Health Department to operate a safe camp. Individual Scouts are encouraged to use their 2020 popcorn certificate to sign up for camp in July. A Cub Scout can go with a parent and redeem the certificate. A Scouts BSA member can redeem the certificate by participating with a provisional Troop. We look forward to operating Camp Emerson in July and are excited to see all the Scouts back in action after the many weeks of Scouting at Home.
The health and safety of our staff, campers, and their families are of the upmost importance. As we receive information from our local County Health Departments, we will follow all regulations and guidance provided and we will continue to issue statements from the California Inland Empire Council.
