Camp Birch is a great camp to visit. It's close to Wright Patterson AFB for day trips, and is walking distance to Clifton gorge, a great place to hike. They also just finished a COPE course that is supposed to be really nice.

Enjoy your trip, and if you get a chance, stop by "Young's Dairy" on the way out of camp (it's in the town of Yellow Springs), great food and ice cream.

Bruce Henry writes to say "There is a scout camp on base at Wright Patterson Air Force base. It is right beside the runways and you never know what you will see! If you check with your local Scout office and they can get you the forms for staying on a military base."
