The Musser Scout Reservation is located along the Unami Creek on over 1,400 acres of Marlborough Township, Pennsylvania. It is part of the largest contiguous forest in Southeastern Pennsylvania. It now includes Camp Hart, Camp Delmont and Camp Garrison.
The Cradle of Liberty Council, Natural Lands Trust, Montgomery County Lands Trust and Montgomery County signed a conservation easement permanently protecting over 1,200 acres of the Musser Scout Reservation. The easement is a perpetual, legally binding agreement to remove certain rights from the property owner. The effect of conservation easements is to provide permanent protection from future development while leaving the land in private ownership.
In case you haven't yet heard about it at your Roundtable or from unit leaders, one of the large focuses of the 2012-2016 Strategic Plan for the Cradle of Liberty Council is to revitalize our camping programs offered at the Musser Scout Reservation. The camps of Hart, Delmont, and Garrison are loaded with hidden traditions and legends, beautiful hiking locations, great camping sites, and encompass nearly 1,400 acres of contiguous forest.
We are committed to bringing these facilities up to the class A status our Scouts deserve to enjoy!
Check out the efforts of volunteer groups from across the Council on this checklist of projects, and talk with your unit to decide which project YOUR GROUP wants to tackle!
Together, we can all ensure that the vision becomes a reality.
