Scouting traditions include plenty of laughter and fun, and few things bring scouts together quite like gross and silly camp songs! These songs are known for their exaggerated humor, absurd lyrics, and sometimes slightly gruesome themes, making them wildly entertaining for scouts of all ages. While they can be a bit over-the-top, they can be lighthearted, ridiculous, and designed for fun, adding energy and excitement to the campfire experience.
