Recent destinations have been Camp Tuscazoar and the Warther Museum in Dover, Mohican Wilderness Campground, Camp Stigwandish, Top O’Ledges, backpacking to the Meadows in Brecksville Reservation, Buffalo Naval Park, Kelley's Island, Beaumont Scout Reservation, and Manatoc Scout Reservation.

We go to Seven Ranges Scout Reservation for summer camp. This is a week long trip beginning on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday, usually the fourth week in June.
