Not only will remaining proceeds will go to Camp Anderson, we are asking for other donations to Camp Anderson. Because of COVID-19 mitigation, all large events hosted at Camp Anderson have been cancelled. Hopefully we can help them recoup some of those losses this summer.
ABOUT CAMP ANDERSON: Situated in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains, Camp Anderson has served the region from 1926-2018. It was established as a scout camp in 1926, largely through the generosity of the late John G. Anderson, a Tyrone businessman. In February, 2016, the Laurel Highlands Council, BSA, decided to divest this property in accordance with their strategic planning. The camp was purchased and is now run by the Camp Anderson Corporation, a private nonprofit.
The facility offers great tent camping, a handicap-accessible site as well as several cabins for rent to meet your program needs. A primary trout stream runs through the camp and is a challenge for fishermen. It is a perfect place for a camping weekend, training center, reunions, weddings - the opportunities are endless.
