Scout Campus

The Orange County Council, Boy Scouts of America has moved its office of operations to the Irvine Ranch Outdoor Education Center forming a new Scout Campus. Earlier this year the Board of Directors of the Council approved the sale of the building in Santa Ana. In early 2020 volunteers and council staff cleared out the Santa Ana office and have since setup the our new Scout Campus. 

Scouting thrives in the great outdoors and now volunteers, Scouts, the community, and Council staff will be immersed in Scouting and the outdoors every time they visit the Scout Campus. The move allows the Orange County Council to focus introducing more youth to the outdoors through the life-changing programs provided by Scouting.
