A camporee is a gathering of local Scouting units for a period of camping and common activities. Typically, the camporee involves competitions, with events such as fire building, knot tying, first aid, emergency preparedness, pioneering or orienteering. The camporee may be centered around a central theme such as living history, horsemanship, aquatics, shooting sports, a historical trail or a service project. Camporees often have a campfire program with awards and presentations, skits and songs.
