About Camp Meriwether

Troop 12 went to Camp Meriwether in 2024 and loved it!

Camp Meriwether celebrates 100 years of Scouting in 2026!
 

A Century of Scouting Spirit

This special centennial year offers the chance to experience all the camp’s best programs, from archery and rock climbing to tide-pooling and beach bonfires under the stars.

Plus, we’re planning exclusive anniversary events, including historical exhibits, reunion gatherings, and a commemorative campfire program, honoring a century of Scout spirit.

 

Camp Meriwether was named after Meriwether Lewis of  the Lewis and Clark Expedition.

Today, Camp Meriwether remains a beloved destination for Scouts looking to experience the wonders of Oregon’s rugged coastline and immerse themselves in outdoor skills and character-building activities.

 

100 Years of Tradition, Adventure, and Discovery

  • State-of-the-Art Range & Target Activities: Try your hand at shotgun, archery, rifle, and black-powder marksmanship at our modern facilities.

  • Beachfront Exploration: Enjoy miles of coastline for tide-pooling, beach games, and unforgettable sunsets.

  • Historic Significance: Walk in the footsteps of Scouts from the past 100 years in an unmatched natural setting.

  • Step Back in Time at Fort Clatsop: Experience a full-size replica of Lewis & Clark’s winter camp from 1805. Here, Scouts can dive into old-time skills like blacksmith forging, candle-making, and black-powder rifle marksmanship.

  • Endless Scouting Activities: From land sailing and rock climbing to archery and boating, there’s something for everyone.
