Bear Mountain's 23rd Annual Scout Weekend runs Saturday and Sunday, March 13-14, 2027, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at Bear Mountain in Big Bear Lake. The first-party event page says active Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts can work toward a Snow Sports Merit Badge in skiing or snowboarding, with volunteer merit-badge counselors focused on on-hill testing. Scouts should arrive with their workbook completed and bring their Blue Cards; every participating Scout receives a 2027 event patch. Applications are open through Big Bear Mountain Resort Group Sales. The resort says participating Scouts receive discounted lift tickets, lessons and rentals, and attending family members are eligible for special pricing with no minimum participant requirement; current 2027 prices, package inclusions, payment deadline and capacity are not published and must be confirmed in the group quote. The event page lists the overall 9:00 AM-4:00 PM window but has not published a 2027 check-in time, lesson assignments, evaluation blocks or daily run of show. Links labeled as last year's check-in and schedule are retained by the organizer only as prior-year planning references and are not treated as the 2027 timetable. Participants should complete the current 2026/27 winter waiver, confirm guardian requirements for minors, bring suitable ski or snowboard clothing and equipment, and review current mountain safety, transportation and operating conditions before travel. The event is outdoors and snow operations are conditions-dependent; no Scout Weekend-specific cancellation threshold, parking allocation, lodging block, accessibility service, livestream or results program is announced. Contact Group Sales at 909-366-4941 or 909-366-4942 for quote and package questions.
