Central Wisconsin Environmental Station Scouting

Camp Chickagami

The land at CWES is leased to the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Foundation from the Trustees of Camp Chickagami.  This scouting legacy continues today. Members of the Samoset Council can reserve space on weekends for scouting events between October 1st and April 30th. Reservations typically include Anderson Lodge, which sleeps 22 and has a common area with a dry kitchen including a refrigerator and stove.  White Pine Lodge is also made available if the group size is larger than 22.  A shared bath house with toilets, sinks, and showers is just a short walk from the lodging.  A separate sink room is also available for doing dishes.

Eagle Scout Projects

If you are looking for an Eagle Scout project, CWES is happy to work with you! We have a variety of Eagle Scout project ideas that would benefit CWES and the scouting community.

In 2021, Brandon Bella completed a project by building an education pavilion on site.
