Boy Scout Camping Activities
All Troops are welcome to our Camp!
Tired of just being a number at a mega camp that over crowds scouts each week without providing the cheerful service of individualized attention, great programs, and a truly memorable camp experience? Consider Wallwood Scout Reservation, a camp that has been in operation since 1966, offering over 30 Merit Badges, over a dozen special
awards & badges. We serve real "home cooking" and plenty of delicious "made from scratch" meals, and then serve them family style, at your dining hall table, not with your troop waiting in the chow line for half an hour.
