    • I am not in the troop, I am third party that was approached for advice. 
    • All of last year the national and regional meetings discussed consolidations of use and more days of use on existing camps.  I get what is being said, a lot of camps are literally used for only 6 to 8 weeks a year and then they sit unused drawing resources for maintenance. 
    • Is the board really trying, or is it just for show?  I have become very jaded about how boards operate based on stories I see, and local experience.  They seem to not make the issue public until it is too late to do much, and often many are completely caught off guard.    
    • Another reason on adult attitudes was WHEN (emphasis) they were in Scouting. I know a former Scouter who was an Eagle in the 1972-1979 "Improved Scouting Program" era. That was when it was possible to be an Eagle without a single night of camping. He could not understand why camping was important.
    • Another camp is on the chopping block for a local council.  Tunnel Mill Reservation board scrambling to save historic Charlestown camp.   https://www.newsandtribune.com/news/tunnel-mill-reservation-board-scrambling-to-save-historic-charlestown-camp/article_2c417778-020b-411d-bbce-da57dde48d15.html The council has three camps, and this one may be on the realtor pages in July.
