Boy Scouts, Mountaineer Area Council

The Mountaineer Area Council, serves Boy Scouts and Scouters in the four counties of Monongalia, Marion, Preston, and Taylor within North Central West Virginia. The council has units for all Scouting programs (Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venturers, and Varsity Scouts) that participate in a variety of activities throughout the year.

The council camp, Camp Mountaineer, is just south of Morgantown and encompasses over 1,000 acres with a lake, quarter-mile zip lines, climbing towers, hiking trails, campsites, and cabins.

Volunteers with Scouting have the opportunity to work with young people and their families, improving your community by enriching participants' lives through fun-filled, worthwhile programs that teach important skills and values. By making the commitment to serve as a volunteer, you can help make a positive difference in a Scout's life and build a better future for our nation.
