Had my Cub Scouts medical dog with us and it was attacked by the personal dog of the resident on the camp grounds. The dog grabbed the Cub Scouts medical dog by the throat and proceeded to shake it and try to kill it. Just thought I should worn people.

I decided this year to go to the scouting 4 eggs adult Easter egg hunt. I've never gone to this event before and I found it to be very well organized although I was a bit disappointed in the prizes.

Came here for the Treasure Hunt. I got lost and almost didnt make it back in time for the announcement of the winning numbers. They should get some staff stationed inside for guidance, or give us a number to call if we're lost, because the main one on google maps didn't have anybody picking up. Many staff are just "busy" at the main area. Place is also very hard to find, my lyft drivers overshot the entrance twice. At night it is creepy so bring a very strong flashlight. Phone flashlight didn't cut it. Finally, i didn't think there were enough eggs. People in front of me took all the eggs :(

I've been going to this camp for many years. It has a pretty nice location right off of 65, but it's not very big. That said, it is doing a lot to modernize it's facilities to meet it's growing demand and I'm excited to see where it goes.

Nice scout reservation. Really small but well kept. The property goes from prairie to gorge. Place has a good feeling to it! Gaga ball pit!!!
