About
Camp Shenandoah offers merit badges in Scoutcraft, Handicraft, aquatics, nature, STEM, and shooting sports. The camp also includes hikes to Elliott Knob, a high adventure program, supplemental training in aquatics and boating safety and in CPR for Scout leaders, and the Timber Mountain program for new Scouts. Each summer over 50 individuals are hired to serve on camp staff, and there is a Counselor-in-Training (CIT) opportunity for 15-year-olds.
