* Overview * |
|---|
The Ventura County Council was chartered in 1921. The purpose of the Boy Scouts of America — incorporated on February 8, 1910, and chartered by Congress in 1916 — is to provide an educational program for boys and young adults to build character, to train them in the responsibilities of participating citizenship, and to develop personal fitness. The Boy Scouts of America is the nation's foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training.
The camp has been open since 1933 and named for three local waterfalls: North Falls, Middle Falls, and Bitter Falls running from the mountains above the camp. It is available for summer camp, winter camp and weekend adventures. This is the Council where Rock Climbing and Rappelling started in the Scouting Program in 1973. Camp Three Falls was the first BSA summer camp to offer Rock Climbing and Rappelling as a new program element in scouting. This was 22 years before it was considered to become a merit badge at Philmont. A 57-foot Climbing tower was built at Camp Three Falls in the spring of 2003.
