Camp Geronimo

Camp Geronimo’s main program is a classic Scout Camp experience based on the BSA merit badge system. Campers choose from over 40 merit badges to build their own schedule. They also get to experience an exciting and dynamic afternoon open program!

How do I prepare?

We have several resources available to help you prepare for your week at camp!

The Scouts went on and on about the staff, the events, the classes, the food, etc. Camp Geronimo was placed on the "Go there again" list, a first since I joined the troop.
