Camp Details
Camp Rock Enon Scout Reservation or CRE is a Scouting America resident summer camp for Cub Scouts 6-10 and Adventure and Specialty Programs for Scouts BSA and Venturing 13+. The camp also hosts many weekend activities and seasonal camping for Shenandoah Area Council and Onerahtokha 297 events. The mineral springs of the area afforded the development of a resort in 1856. 89 years later in 1944 the area began the conversion to youth development resources. The summer camp offers familiar outdoor programs to Cub Scouts like aquatics, camping, outdoor skills, fishing, handicraft, RATA, climbing, and nature. Adventure and Specialty Programs include Thrive On: Backwoods Survival, Rock On: Climbing, Repelling, Cascading, Hike On: Backpacking Trek, Trades Week, Eagle Merit Badge day camp, and Tenderfoot to 2nd Class day camp. The property includes 14 campsites that accommodate from 16 to 56 campers in tents or Adirondack shelters as well as a dining hall that can serve 450 at a time. The camp is 1.6 miles (2.6 km) from the border of Virginia and West Virginia, 35 miles (56 km) from the Maryland border, and also 35 miles (56 km) from the Pennsylvania border. Units from Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia most often frequent the property.
