Wild places, raised right.

The Colbert Camp Foundation owns and stewards rural Kansas land so that Scouts and other young people have a real, unhurried place to camp, learn, serve, and grow up outdoors.

See the Camp

A look at the property and the work behind it.

The Colbert Camp Foundation cares for a working tract of Kansas countryside — cleared meadows for tents and tables, trails through the cedars, a fire ring, and the tools and time it takes to keep all of that ready for the next troop to roll in.

Watch the short video for a feel for the place, then come help us keep it standing.

Help keep the gates open.

Every fence post, every cleared trail, every weekend the camp hosts a troop — it is funded by people who believe young people belong outside. Your tax-deductible gift goes directly to the maintenance fund.
