🏕️ BE ALL IN FOR McKEE!

For generations, Camp McKee has been the place where Blue Grass Council Scouts have learned to lead, challenged themselves, earned merit badges, laughed around campfires, and created memories that last a lifetime.

Now it's our turn to ensure those traditions continue.

If your troop has been exploring other camps over the past few years, we invite you to bring Camp McKee back into your summer camp rotation for 2027. There's never been a better time to come home.

When Blue Grass Council troops choose Camp McKee, they're doing more than attending summer camp—they're investing in the future of our council camp, strengthening programs for every Scout, and preserving a place that has served generations of young people.

Make your commitment by October 1 to earn exclusive ALL IN recognition for your troop, and reserve early to take advantage of Early Bird pricing through December 31. (link in comments)

💚 One Council. One Camp. One Promise.

Let's make Summer Camp 2027 a celebration of everything Camp McKee represents. Together, let's be ALL IN for McKee and ensure the next generation of Scouts experiences the same traditions, adventures, and lifelong memories that have made Camp McKee the heart of Scouting in the Blue Grass Council.
