Adults may attend in a chaperone capacity. The Scouting American (Scouts BSA) and Girl Scouts need at least two chaperones per troop. All other youth groups will need at least 3 youths for every adult. Please do not add more adults than what is required. We realize this event is just as fun for adults, but our goal is to prioritize registration for youth in our communities.
