Bear Creek Scout Camp

Bear Creek Scout Camp Summer camp changes lives! Check out our summer programs at https://www.alamoareabsa.org/summer-camp/

Acquired in 1957 and offering Boy Scout Summer Camp since 1964, Bear Creek Scout Camp has been a summer home to thousands of Scouts. Providing unforgettable camping memories, Bear Creek has afforded many young people their first opportunity to experience self-reliance in a beautiful natural setting in the Texas Hill Country.

Remember those days and nights at McGimsey Scout Park, Mays Family Scout Ranch, or Bear Creek Scout Camp? The campfires, the laughter, the teamwork — and the pride that comes from watching Scouts grow in confidence, leadership, and character.

Those moments are what make Scouting unforgettable. And right now, the Alamo Area Council needs your help to ensure even more youth have the chance to experience them.

Today, we’re serving about 4,500 Scouts across our council. Not long ago, that number was closer to 10,000. Together, we have an opportunity to rebuild that level of impact so more families in our community can discover what Scouting truly offers.

Join us for the 2026 Friends of Scouting Breakfast
📅 Tuesday, January 13, 2026 @ 7:00 am
📍 McGimsey Scout Park Dining Hall
🥞 Complimentary breakfast provided

You’ll hear inspiring stories — including one from an Eagle Scout whose life was shaped by Scouting — and learn how we can strengthen Scouting’s future in our communities.

We’re reintroducing Friends of Scouting with a renewed focus. Rather than asking more of those who already give so much of their time and talent, our goal is to invite new people to learn about the mission, values, and impact of Scouting.

That’s where you come in.

How You Can Help
• Save the date and plan to attend
• Invite at least three friends, neighbors, or coworkers who may not know much about Scouting
• Share your Scouting story and why it matters to you

RSVP Today!
Please confirm your attendance — and your guests’ — at:

✨ NEW STORY: From Campfires to Chords ✨
Eagle Scout and longtime Scouter Brad Barrows has turned decades of Bear Creek memories into something truly special — a brand-new music album, Back to the Creek. Inspired by real adventures right here in our council, this project gives 100% of its proceeds back to Bear Creek Scout Camp.

His journey, his music, and the impact it will make… it’s all in our latest article.
