BSA Mission Statement:


The mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make

ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values

​ of the Scout Oath and Law.

Why Camp Mattatuck?

     Camp Mattatuck is located in scenic Plymouth, CT where it opened for summer camp in 1939.  The camp sits on a beautiful 500 acre property just outside of the city of Waterbury, roughly the midway point between Boston, Massachusetts and New York, New York.  Over a five week period in the summer Scouts turn the Camp into home. This includes a Cub Scout Day Camp, Cub Scout Resident Camp, Scouts BSA Day Camp and a Boy Scout Resident Camp.  Scouts reside in two or four person wall tents set on platforms with bunks and mattresses in one of our campsites. The Dining Hall provides scouts with three square meals a day prepared by a Chef and their staff.
     The available activities are unlike any other.  Take a hike down to our shooting ranges and try your hand with our .22 rifles, shotguns, or bows and arrows. For speed take a walk up the hill and try out our mountain boards or take a bike for a spin on one of our many Mattatuck biking trails. Stop by Mohawk cabin and try your hand at baking a cake with the ScoutCraft Staff. If you want to relax go for a leisurely sail around our private lake, or a paddle in one of our canoes.  If you’re feeling a little more adventurous, visit the world famous Camp Mattatuck Climbing Tower.  If you’d rather relax, head to the trading post and grab a soda, slushy, or an ice cream and play a giant game of Jenga or Chess on our jumbo-sized boards.  The Nature Center is always looking for the biggest fish, so bring your fishing pole and reel in a big one.  
Camp Mattatuck offers something for everyone young and old! Come on by for an experience unlike any other!
