You note further down in the thread that "Scout Camp is a big deal," but that's a pretty big assumption on your part. It's not a big deal for everyone, and that should be OK.

That said, if you make a commitment to help out on something like that, you should do so only if you're reasonably sure you can fulfill the commitment.
