Properties

The Northern Lights Council operates five camps located at four different properties located throughout our council to best serve the youth and leaders in our program.  Each of these properties is unique and provide different programs and experiences to meet the needs of the campers.  The outdoor program has been at the heart of Scouting for over 100 years and our “Outdoor Classrooms” are some of the premier properties in the area.
