HSR WEEKEND CAMPING SEASON
The 2018 - 2019 online registration system opens August 19, 2018 @ 9 a.m.
The outdoor camping experience is not just for the warm summer months . . . The Chester County Council Horseshoe Scout Reservation offers weekend camping opportunities late September through the month of May. During the weekend camping season our two camps, Horseshoe and Ware, offer the use of shooting sport ranges, slingshot paint ball range, COPE (Camp Horseshoe), bouldering wall (Camp Ware), many hiking trails, backcountry leave-no-trace campsites as well as ranger staff that can help your Scouts complete a variety of merit badges (prior arrangements required). For packs it offers the perfect opportunity to meet the camp-out requirement that is now part of each rank Cub Scouts. Use the links below to explore our camps and make your reservation.
Make-a-Reservation
Please note that a separate reservation must be made for cabin/campsite and every program area you wish to use.
Exciting News:
We are excited to announce that Camp Horseshoe will have a high-speed fiber network available this summer. As phase 1 of the fiber project, this will allow the Scouts involved in STEM programs to have access to the resources necessary to complete their merit badges. This upgrade will also ensure adults have access to work remotely while supporting their Scouts. Phase 2 of this project is to have the same access at Camp Ware. Thank you to those that donated to the Raise the Signal Campaign and the Order of the Arrow for your contributions.
Chainsaw Training
Offered October, December, March and April. Click here for additional information and a link to register.
