History:
In the 1990's a committee of volunteers envisioned a camping atmosphere at the Council Scout Reservation that would provide for Cub Scout age youth the excitement and wonder experienced by all boys of this age. In 1998, our council embarked upon the largest capitalcampaign in its history, “The Campaign for Family Values”.The purpose of this campaign was to strengthen Scouting in central Virginia and to raise thenecessary funds to enable the vision of a Cub Scout Adventure Camp to become a reality. It is our hope that the vision created and the subsequent facilities brought forth from this vision and the funding of the capital campaign will encourage every Cub & Webelos Scout to experience camping and the Cub Scout program as he has never had the opportunity to do before.

The Cub Adventure Camp is located on the Heart of Virginia Scout Reservation in Goochland
County, Virginia. The Cub Camp is situated on 120 acres adjacent to Boy Scout Camps T. Brady
Saunders and S. Douglas Fleet. The Cub Camp is the newest facility on the reservation, in its fifth
season after opening in July 2002. Its facilities and management are surely one of the most current
and exciting within the United States.

The theme of this year’s Cub Adventure Camp is “Space – The Final Adventure” Whichcontinues the purpose of Cub Scouting which is to develop and build character in our youth whilehaving fun. The program that the Cub Scouts will participate in allows them to explore a wide range
of experiences and activities. Through the activities they learn to develop character traits and
experience the Cub Scout Motto: “Do Your Best”.


Facilities available for use by Scouts include a central dining hall, numerous theme-based
camping areas, such as the Western Fort, the improved Tee Pee Village, Mountain Cabins,
Yurt Village, and Baloo Tent Village along with several summer camp style camping tent areas.
Program areas that we have are: a nature center, an 800-seat amphitheater, a 64’ long Discovery Ship with fishing area, a “New World” style Fort for BB’s, archery, and games. Also available is a mineshaft and cave, handicraft lodge, a Castle which houses our pool / spray ground, BMX Track and much more!
