This past summer we went to Hidden Valley Scout Reservation, Gilmanton Iron Works Village, Newhampshire. Hidden Valley offers a traditional Scout camping atmosphere with merit badge opportunities, First Year Camper Program, Troop activities, camp wide competitions, dining hall and much more. Hidden Valley is the place Scouts think of when they think summer camp! A quick glance through the Valley and you will see beautiful lakes, several mountain tops for great day hikes, hundreds of Scouts involved in dozens of activities, top notch facilities, an enthusiastic staff of over eighty scouts and scouters, and finally� great food in a majestic dining hall. Hidden Valley is the land made for Scouting! At Hidden Valley most of the scouts did the COPE corse. COPE stands for Challenging Outdoor Personal Expirence. We had great instructors and there were great peaple in the program. It's a long haul from here, but overall I can say that we had a good time. Just look above.
