Boy Scouts of America® Leatherstocking Council

Blizzard Camp

What do you do when a camp sits in one of the snowiest places in the United States?

       You embrace it and create a winter camp experience like no other! That’s exactly what we have done with Blizzard Adventure Camp at Camp Kingsley. Our staff looks forward to sharing a unique resident camp experience with you that will create memories to last a lifetime.

There’s tons of the stuff you love about scout camp in the summer but without the mosquitos. Scout skills, merit badges, crafts, shooting sports, games, campfires. It’s all here. Add to that the unique atmosphere of the Tug Hill plateau in January and we are able to offer a great range of winter program opportunities. Cross-country skiing, snowmobile repair, sledding, snow kayaking, winter survival, snowshoeing, and the Penguin Plunge are just some of the exciting new programs that await you. Sure, it might be cold but there will always be plenty of time to sit and enjoy hot cocoa by a warm fire.

More programming information is coming soon, but it will be a very cool Blizzard Camp this year no matter what!
