Area 7 Camp Promotions Initiative

One of the four purposes of the Order of the Arrow is to "promote camping, responsible outdoor adventure, and environmental stewardship as essential components of every Scout’s experience, in the unit, yearround, and in summer camp."

In order to achieve this we have created this, the Area 7 Camp Promotions Initiative with the hopes of promoting scout camping in the area. To this end we created a Where to Go Camping Guide of all the local council camps and well known National and State Parks. The Where to go Camping Guide portion includes all Area 7 Council Camps and other frequently used properties by Area 7 Units. Our hope is to provide a resource to the units of the local camps, in order to make it easier for them to register and find a camp that meets their individual needs.

We have also provided numerous resources about program aspects to camping, such as Leave No Trace, camp fire planning and much more. These documents were created with the hope of providing units with everything needed to put on successful events.
