Camp Description:
We are a 1,000-acre camping facility nestled in the forest near Mount Sterling, Kentucky. We are owned and managed by the Blue Grass Council Lexington, Kentucky, affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America.During the summer season we host hundreds of Boy Scouts from Kentucky and across the country for a week of fun and adventure at summer camp. Summer camp offers boys an opportunity for excitement, advancement within the Scouting program, and personal development in beautiful and relaxing surroundings. Scouts are able to participate in aquatics, ecology, scout craft and handicraft, earning merit badges along the way. We also offer our “Baden Powell" program to teach many of the basics to younger Scouts, and for the older boys we have an excellent C.O.P.E. and Climbing program with a low and high course and climbing and sailing programs in the nearby Red River Gorge and Cave Run Lake. We also offer some of these programs and camping in the "off" season for Boy Scouts and other youth organizations.
