2016 Spring Camporee

Live the Life of the Mountain Man this Spring!

Traversing the rugged Rocky Mountain Range from 1810 to the 1880s, the Mountain Men opened up the American Frontier for settlement. Without the efforts of these Brave Men, Americans would have experienced tremendous difficulty in creating a country that spanned Sea to Shining Sea.

Experience the Frontier Lifestyle Firsthand

The Spring Camporee this year will give Scouts a glimpse into the lives of the Mountain Men. Experienced Reenactors will be present during the event to portray the Frontier Lifestyle. Scouts will also take part in Mountain Man activities such as Tomahawk Throwing, Spear Tossing, and Blacksmithing, among other things.

The Spring Camporee will be at Darien Lake State Park this year, conveniently located at the center of Council. Friday, May 13th - Sunday, May 15th 10475 Harlow Rd, Darien Center, NY 14040
