NORTHERN CALIFORNIA HAS THE FINEST CAMP FACILITIES

 

The Council owns and operates two year-round camp facilities and three high adventure camps. The Council employs two full time camp rangers to maintain the facilities.  Continuous improvements are made throughout the year to provide the best possible summer program.

 

 

 WHAT TO EXPECT AT CAMP in 2008!

CAMP PAHATSI:
Since camp Pahatsi’s closure in 2002, many Scouting families and units have never experienced the great outdoors at this Boy Scout facility. We would like to invite you to visit us at camp. We are taking reservations for families, and Scouting units to use camp in exchange for service work hours.

In preparation of the reopening of camp Pahatsi, work NEEDS to be done to remove fallen trees, restore electrical needs, repair the water system, and conduct normal maintenance.

Please help us by donating your unit’s time to help us maintain, rebuild and improve your camp in lieu of a rental fee. For more information please visit Camp Pahatsi under the CAMPING tab of this website for more information and a flyer.

CAMP LASSEN:
Camp Lassen will be open this coming summer for all of its traditional activities such as nature, handicraft, aquatics, shooting sports, and Scoutcraft. Special features that you have grown to love will also be available such as a full C.O.P.E. course, mountain biking, and horseback riding treks. Our program has expanded to include Troop horseback riding excursions and Troop COPE experiences. We will be adding Cub Scouts can look forward to Lassen’s new tradition of providing great programs by participating in the Cub Resident Camp. We have invested in 10 new bikes for camp! Camp Lassen will be commemorating its 75th anniversary with a special Fourth of July celebration and special patch.

Camp Winton is scheduled to open with 8 full weeks. Instructions in aquatics, personal fitness, outdoor adventure, conservation, ecology, handicrafts, shooting sports are to be offered, amongst others.
