Hey Jo, Saw your post and thought that i would do a review on Resica Falls Scout Reservation for you. It might be bias because i am the lake director but I am very truthful and have been in the same position as you looking for camps for my troop.

Camp Big Springs - Resica Falls Scout Reservation - Marshalls Creek PA Cradle of Liberty Council, Eastern Zone Reasons: The camp is amazing. Not only is the program put together really well, but the staff is awsome. Last year was my first year going to the camp and i fell in love with it.

Hello all, I need some help with this one. I was an SPL who ran everything. Did everyones job for them. I did all the campouts, youth training, ceremony's, meetings, parties, etc. and now that i am JASM i feel like i have no active leadership role. Its kind of just a place my scoutmaster throws you when you have no where else to go. I was wondering what do you other scoutmasters have your jasm do to keep him busy and if you have a set job description. Any input would be greatly appreciated as i have a meeting with my scoutmaster to discuss my role as JASM. Thanks,
