Rota planning preview
A glimpse of the current camp duty planning interface.
Overview
Camp Chores is built for planning camp chore rotas, especially for Scout camps. It makes duty planning easier to understand than a sprawling rota spreadsheet.
Add people, groups, rota items, and sessions, then build a clear schedule for the work that needs doing across camp.
What it is for
- Patrol chore rota Share jobs fairly across patrols or groups.
- Free time rota Plan who is available and when.
- Washing up Make the post-meal rota less arguable.
- Food prep Allocate kitchen help across the camp.
- Cleaning Keep cleaning jobs visible and scheduled.
- Wood collecting Add outdoor duties without losing them in the margins.
- Tent inspection prep Plan inspection prep and tidy-up time.
- Multiple days Spread camp duties across longer events.

Notes
This is hobby software, not a corporate product with a support contract. It is shared because it solves a real camp admin problem and is useful in practice.
The Microsoft Store is the official download source. The privacy policy covers the Bear Camp camp tools.
A small Scout honesty-box request
Before you download, take a moment at the virtual camp gate.
Bear Camp tools are offered on trust. There is no paywall, no lock, and no awkward begging bowl. Just a simple honesty-box request: if these camp tools help your group, please consider buying me a coffee for £1.
The Scout laws that feel especially relevant here are:
- A Scout is to be trusted
- A Scout is helpful
- A Scout is friendly and considerate
- A Scout makes good use of time and is careful of possessions and property
These apps are built in my own time to help leaders spend less time wrestling with admin and more time planning proper camps, supporting young people, and doing all the unpaid behind-the-scenes jobs that appear just before departure.
