get-ready-for-camp

Scout Shop has huge surprises for shoppers next week.

To help you #GetReadyForCamp, it’s rolling out an epic lineup of incentives. (Pro tip: Read this entire post to find out how you can start taking advantage of all this event has to offer!)

From May 13 to 18, Scout Shops will have incredible deals both online and in store. We’re talking up to 20% off camping gear!

(This deal excludes gift cards and program literature.)

Plus, you have three ways to win prizes online and score in-store exclusives. Check them out below!

Upgrade your #InvisibleHammock

Post a photo on Instagram that shows how you would lounge in a hammock… if only you had one! Get creative – from lounging on a desk to lying on a bale of hay, share your best hammock chill pose on Instagram using #InvisibleHammock and #BSAcontest (be sure your pose doesn’t conflict with The Guide to Safe Scouting). Boys’ Life will select a winner to score a hammock and a ton of other cool stuff (worth $250!). Post your pictures between May 6 and 16 to be entered to win. The winner will be announced May 17 on Instagram!

A truly Scouty scavenger hunt

Head to ScoutShop.org between May 13 and 18 to join in the hunt for a hidden icon. The icon, seen in the photo directly below, is stashed on the site and could be anywhere – hiding in product details or on your favorite page. When you find it, click on it and it will take you to a page where you can enter to win a $150 gift card to Scout Shops (valid both online and in store). 

Tune into Facebook for daily prizes and gear Q&As

Monday, May 13, to Friday, May 18, at 11:30 a.m. Central, tune into daily Facebook Live discussions hosted by Boys’ Life to learn more about summer camp’s hottest topics (pun intended). Comment with your gear questions or “like” the Facebook Live post to be entered to win a prize every day.

Why you should head to Scout Shop on May 18

If you head into your local Scout Shop on Saturday, May 18, you can talk to gear experts, see cooking demos and pick up a summer camp packing list. You can check out the #GetReadyForCamp page for more info!

So what now? Get ready for contests, giveaways, sweet deals – and most of all, #GetReadyForCamp!

Let us know below what questions you have for Scouts Shop’s gear experts! You may see your questions answered during one of our Facebook Live Q&As!
