In 2015, Jeanne Donlevy Arnold, philanthropist and advocate for whole child health, was tasked by former Boy Scouts of America’s National President Dr. Robert Gates to lead the Presidential Task Force to address childhood obesity. Penn State PRO Wellness partnered with Ms. Arnold and the Boy Scouts of America to develop the Scouting COMPASS program, which encourages healthy eating and active living.
One of the major components of the Scouting COMPASS program includes nutritional modifications and physical activity challenges at Boy Scout summer camps. PRO Wellness has developed this Summer Camp Revamped toolkit to help troop leaders make proven changes successfully.
