I've been the young men's president in my ward for nearly 5 years now. I've been on various camps and even try to go with my sons on their week-long camps when I can. The boys and leaders have raved and raved about Bear Lake for years. This year I finally went to Bear Lake with Blake and his troop. The Scout Master makes sure to secure THE premier spot in the whole camp, which has a large double-pavilion with 2 tables and a wide area for sitting. It also sits RIGHT next to the lake. Seriously, it's about 50 feet from the water's edge.
My blasted SD card reader is lost and I have yet to secure another, so all you get to see is a single grainy picture I took with my BlackBerry from our camp.
I cannot say enough good about the camp. It was as relaxing as any camp I've been to. We swam in the lake to our hearts content - like 4 times a day. The boys had plenty of free time between merit badge classes to just have fun. The only drawback is that there is REALLY good cell coverage, so I wasn't TOTALLY removed from civilization - which is what I prefer. There is a "leaders" building which has Wi-Fi and a bunch of large sectional couches. Somehow I found myself napping in them every day at 10:00 AM. Nice and relaxing. Just my style.
