Places to go with your Scouts
Have you and your committee been stuck trying to pick out somewhere to take your pack or your den?
Is that Patrol Leader’s Council stumped for ideas on an outing?
Or maybe you just need some ideas of places to take your family for a vacation or a long weekend.
Take a peek through this list of 149 locations that are good for your unit (or family) to visit. The criteria being that it had to be in Pennsylvania, specifically the eastern portion of the state (using Harrisburg and State College as general guidelines), similar to WFMZ’s “One Tank Trips” feature.
The three lists below are the same, but are sorted differently: by the name of the location, by the county where the location is found, and by the general category that the location falls under. Feel free to download whichever you prefer. The location categories are located at the bottom of the page.
