Located near Waverly, Iowa, Ingawanis Adventure Base is for everyone- Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, and Venturing Crews; youth groups, retirement homes, physically/mentally disabled groups, church groups, schools, college clubs, and organizations. Having direct access to the Cedar River, we host tent and cabin camping, canoe floats, trail hikes, mountain bike rides, training sessions, dinners, weddings, birthday parties, swimming parties, and other activities. Wooded rolling hills and winding trails at Ingawanis Adventure Base provide a challenging place to hike, or for the less adventurous you can walk the easy trails or the camp roads.

A huge thank you to Jesup Boy Scout Troop 95 for providing the labor and materials to build a new shelter at Ingawanis Adventure Base! The new shelter will provided a great place for Scouts and Leaders to congregate in the shade!

I want to give a “Shout Out” to Camp Director Whitney Jensen, Program Director Sarah Estus, SPL Keegan Herzmann, and the rest of the Ingawanis Adventure Base 2026 Summer Camp Staff for all their support last week. This was my fifth year as Director of “Trail to First Class”, a program for first year campers. It was a pleasure to work with the Scouts, and the parents and leaders who sat through and assisted with the training. By the end of the fun filled week, I was a bit exhausted, but I had a smile on my face that would last me for a year. I look forward to seeing all these Scouts at Summer Camp next year as they continue their quest for the rank of Eagle Scout.
Thanks, from “Special Ed”!!!
