Woodruff Scout Reservation - Georgia




Located near Blairsville in North Georgia, Robert W. Woodruff Scout Reservation is a 1575-acre (637-hectare) camp property adjacent to Lake Notley and the Chattahoochee National Forest. The beautiful North Georgia Mountains surround most of the camp. Woodruff offers a spectacular 86-acre mountain lake, a climbing/rappelling tower, nature center, trading post, a COPE Course, astronomy, shooting sports, heavily wooded campsites, and great hiking trails. Scouts have the opportunity to enjoy our great aquatic area or visit the nearby Nantahala or Ocoee Rivers for whitewater rafting, canoeing, or tubing. The Appalachian Trail and Cohutta Wilderness is close at hand and offers the opportunity for extended backpacking trips.

We went to Summer Camp on 2004 with Troop 840 from Miami. We brought 44 scouts and a lot of adults. We did high adventure, COPE, white water rafting, horseback riding, merit badges, and new scouts program.

Troop 182 from Jacksonville has been in Woodruff in summer camps in several opportunities. Last time was in 2007. I am sure our scouts and adults will always remember the real CPR/AED experience.

Taking regular breaks is pretty important for every individual. Working 24/7 can be a strenuous experience, which is why every one takes some time to clear their head and venture off into the wilderness with their friends and family. My favorite spots are the national parks to spend the break. Of course, what fun would camping be without delicious food cooked over an open flame or without playing games in the open air? Since I do this regularly I started collecting good sites and articles related to camping and fun activities or games for camping (more than 200 sites for camping and 200 sites for making your camping fun). You have all the information related to camping, camping gear, how to prepare for camping, how to choose camping sites, food, games etc.,. If you are interested take a look at the below link.
