Venturing camps for summer 2008

[jhawk]

Anybody in a council with a really good venturing camp? Our crew is looking for a good camp for next summer to work on Ranger requirements. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

This is something we are working on a nationa level with venturing. ALl scout camps should be required to have a Ventiring Program at their Camps. It is an uphill struggle but we are getting here. How about Northern Tier or Boundry Waters. Sea Base is an Option. Isle Royale is also great. Or my neck of the Woods The Laurel Highlands of Western Pa.
There are no camps at this time But we have wihin a 20 Mile Radius. Caving,Whitewater Rafting or Kayaking,CLimbing/mountaineering,Horseback riding, Biking(the Great Allegheny Passagse) Pittsburgh to DC,Two Frank Lloyd Wright Homes and many camp grounds that are SCout friendly or Two SCout Camps that will allow you to stay there. Eberly Scout Reservation offers a Week Long Trek on the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail plus Rafting and Caving
