Kimball Scout Reservation In Action

If you have not seen Kimball Scout Reservation lately, you need to come and see what all the fuss is about.  We have added new programs and facilities to make your camping experience top notch.

Our new clay pigeon throwers make it easier for our youth to excell at the Shotgun Merit Badge
The new basketball stand gives the boys something fun to do during free swim. 


 The Honor Trail is a great evening activity that ends with a interfaith worship service

 First Aid being taught under the new porch of the Founders Lodge

 Yes, they are fishing at Lake Marrietta.  The lake was recently stocked with catfish and bluegill.  This last week boys spent time in the evenings trying to catch the biggest fish.  Some succeeded and others had fun trying.

We have bought new shotguns, clay pigeon throwers, kayaks, pool toys, and so much more.  Scoutmasters can even get WIFI on the new porch to keep on their work.  We are committed to making camp a better place and we have just scratched the surface of the things to come.

Thanks for you support.

Kimball Scout Reservations New Look

The new buildings at Kimball Scout Reservation make your camping experience even better.


Here is a look at the downtown part of camp looking from the Shotgun Range.

The Founders Health Lodge provides a great facility to take care of campers and also provides plenty of shade and for the leaders.  You can even catch up on emails with WIFI now available.


The new Potosi Pete's Trading post also has a porch that provides shade. For all those looking to cool off they can come in get a cold drink or slushy and relax under the porch.

Trees have been planted and many more to come will be planted to help provide additional shade.  If you have not seen Kimball Scout Reservation lately you need to come see what we have to offer and put us in your camp rotation.  We promise you won't be disapointed.
