Firelands Scout Reservation is located 5 miles west of Oberlin, in Wakeman on 455 acres of land, most of which is protected. The reservation holds two camps, Camp Avery Hand and Camp Wyandot. Each individual camp is named in honor of the former camps once a part of the original councils that merged. Firelands has a rich history of serving Scouting and has operated as a Scout Camp since 1938. For the Lake Erie Council, Firelands serves as the home base for all Cub Scout and Webelos Resident Camps, and advanced leadership training including Wood Badge and NYLT. The camp is also open to all Scouts for year-round camping and activities.
The reservation is about 70% wooded. Camp Wyandot features a 23-acre lake with an island connected by a peninsula, a best-in-class climbing tower and high ropes course, and 16 beautiful rustic campsites. Camp Avery Hand is home to a dozen camping sites, and cabins available to families and units that sleep four to 32 people! Recent improvements in 2017 include a stunning renovation to the Avery Hand shower house and a brand-new Human Foosball Court.
