Troop 1778
will be attending Camp Bashore for Summer Camp.
Camp Bashore
is a 400 acre Boy Scout camp nestled in the foothills of the
Blue Mountains of central Pennsylvania. Surrounded by mountains
and wilderness, it is in close proximity to the Appalachian
Trail, while being only a short drive from major metro areas and
attractions such as Lancaster's Amish Country, Hersheypark, PA
Renaissance Faire, Cabela's, Bass Pro Shop, as well as Ski Round
Top ski area and Fort Indiantown Gap military reservation.
Founded in
1947, Camp Bashore has earned a reputation for providing one of
the Northeast Region's finest summer camp programs. Our camp
features miles of hiking trails, a 5.5 acre lake that offers
sailing, kayaking, canoeing, rowing, and fishing. We have an
Olympic sized swimming pool, Shooting Sports ranges offering
Rifle, Shotgun, Archery (3-D and traditional targets- unlike any
course you've ever seen!) as well as a COPE course and Indoor
Climbing gym! A nearby horse stable affords Scouts the
opportunity to offer Horsemanship Merit Badge. They offer
programs for first-year Boy Scouts, experienced older Scouts,
and even training for Adult Leaders- something for everyone!
