I'm thinking it's because yours is a Cub Scout event and a Camporee is a Boy Scout event. Different rules for different activities.

My son's Webelos Den just participated in a BS Camporee. It was quite an experience for the parents...boring as we weren't given anything to do, alarming to see the Boy Scouts behaving in ways we don't allow our Cub Scouts to (fire safety and buddy system), and confusing because we were constantly given conflicting information regarding program timelines. May have just been the Troop though.
