The Lake of the Ozarks Scout Reservation is the only Scout camp in the country to offer a program designed to stretch a young person’s mind and creativity in developing an idea, designing the idea, and then creating the project. We offer programs year round in the lab with a trained and qualified staff for Scout units and other community groups.
