About the Camp
Born in 1965 near beautiful Cypress Gardens (now Legoland), Flaming Arrow Scout Reservation is located near national landmark Bok Tower at 1201 Boy Scout Road in Lake Wales, Florida.

It is the home to year-round programs available to Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturers, Sea Scouts, Girl Scouts, JROTC cadets, religious groups, police search and rescue dive teams, sheriff rifle teams, and other groups that look to enjoy the facilities at the camp.
