Lake Erie Council, Boy Scouts Of America

Since 1910, Scouting has led the way as the premier youth-serving organization in the United States. Scouts have changed the world for one hundred years and we will continue to do so for the next hundred. Lake Erie Council was formed on January 1, 2017, under the direction of the Scout Executive, Marc Ryan. The council spans from Sandusky to Conneaut, Ohio and covers a total of seven counties. The council combines the former Greater Cleveland Council, Greater Western Reserve, and Heart of Ohio Council. Overall, Lake Erie Council serves over 15 thousand youth and adults in programs such as Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing, Exploring and Sea Scouts. Our programs are supported by our three outstanding camp properties, which are located throughout northeast Ohio. Beaumont Scout Reservation in Rock Creek is the home to the Boy Scout Summer Camp Program. Firelands Scout Reservation in Wakeman, Ohio is home to Cub Scout Adventure Camp, Webloes Resident Camp, and Wood Badge Training. Camp Stigwandish in Madison, Ohio is the primary home to training including National Youth Leadership Training, Cub Scout Adventure Camp, and Red, White, and Boom, our premier Fourth of July celebration. Coming together as one family has not only allowed us to impact more youth across our seven counties but has allowed us to share resources, and ideas as we are now stronger together as the Lake Erie Council.
