Whether you’re into high-energy adventures, peaceful nature getaways, or something in between, Scouting America Family Adventure Camps have something for everyone. From tents to cabins, hiking trails to tropical waters, you can choose your own pace and comfort level.
“These camps are all about families spending time outdoors and creating memories you just can’t get anywhere else,” says Andrea Watson, Scouting America’s Family Adventure Camp coordinator. And the best part? You can bring the whole crew — little kids, teens, grandparents — everyone’s welcome.
