    Camp Bell is open. It opened in 2000. My son just got back from Bell (first time to a Boy Scout camp) and had a blast! All cooking is done by patrol. This camp is highly recommended. EDB T186, Rochester, NH

    Camp Bell is a Patrol oriented camp. Cooking and camping is by patrol, and Scouts choose activities including water skiing, horseback riding, rock climbing, mountain man, canoeing, swimming, sailing, backpacking, and more. Camp Bell is on the western side of the 5 square mile Griswold Scout Reservation (formerly Hidden Valley Scout Reservation). (See also Camp Hidden Valley)

    Our unit just returned from Camp Bell for the second time. We had 4 patrols and 24 scouts. The experience makes our troop, patrol and individual scouts grow and live the ideals of scouting. I highly recommend this camp to all units.JSE SM T252 NH
