Treasures of Scouting Series
Located just five miles northeast of Stillwater, Minnesota is Fred C. Andersen Scout Camp. The camp boasts 260 acres along the St. Croix River. Year-round camping, 17 winterized cabins, campsites, and a one-mile trail to a backpacking campsite make this property one of the most active camps in Northern Star Council. The Andersen-Weekes Tree Farm is a 60-acre site of gently rolling hills, open fields and woodlands perfect for camporees, district events and large groups.
Many years ago, this camp was known a River Camp. Later on, Fred C. Anderson (Anderson Windows) provided funds to purchase the property and keep it as a council property for years to come.
