Your Next Adventure Is Closer Than You Think

Summer may be over, but the adventure certainly isn’t! New England Base Camp in Milton offers opportunities throughout the year for Scouts and families to get outside, learn new skills and enjoy time together.

With fall colors, cooler temperatures and plenty of opportunities for outdoor fun, October is a great time to return to Base Camp.

Schedule your open program visit for October 24th!

🍂 Grab your gear and make Base Camp part of your fall adventure!
