2009 Summer Camp
Information |

General Camp Information |
 |
Troop 166 is
attending two weeks of summer camp this year at
Onteora
Scout Reservation
in the Catskills and
Camp Minsi
in the Pocono's |
 |
Scouts
are encouraged to attend both camps, but a Scout can
attend either or both weeks. |
 |
Onteora sits on 1,400 pristine acres in the heart of the NY
Catskill Forest Preserve, with elevations reaching over 2,000
feet. Onteora's location gives Scouts the unique opportunity to
truly know the great outdoors. Orchard Lake with its native trout
and other exciting fishing combined with our rugged land and
trails makes OSR the prime place for the Boy Scout Summer Camp
Program. Onteora's
Dan Beard Program is one of the best first year programs
around. OSR also offers many opportunities for all scouts
including COPE, climbing, kayaking, The Glaize and the
trailblazer program for older scouts. |
 |
Located on the
shores of 315 acre Stillwater Lake in the Poconos, Camp Minsi has
a wide variety of activities for Boy Scouts and Adult Leaders.
Among its many program areas are a top quality waterfront,
exciting shooting sports, crafts, archery and Scout Skills. Minsi
has 10 campsites, a large shower house and a great trading post
stocked with all of your favorite snacks. Be sure to join in the famous
Muck Hike while you're at camp! |
 |
Here is a good guide on
what to bring to both
Minsi and Onteora. |
 |
Here
is the
registration form for both camps. |
