*We are adding 2 new program areas to Keyauwee!
This spring we will be putting up an Alpine Tower and a Team Development Course.
We are currently in the planning process and hope to break ground in February.
Staff should be trained this spring and program areas will be running for summer
camp programs and troops can book these activities for Fall camping. We are
sorry for any inconveniences but hope that you are excited for these new
activities at Keyauwee!

This information is for you to use to teach your troop how to
geocache. When you check out GPS units to use for geocaching at
Keyauwee, we will provide you with this same presentation in a
binder, so you do not have to print it off before you come to camp.
