==Boy Scouts of America in Pennsylvania Today== ===Bucktail Council=== The Bucktail Council of the [[Boy Scouts of America]] serves [[Cameron County, Pennsylvania|Cameron]], [[Clearfield County, Pennsylvania|Clearfield]], [[Elk County, Pennsylvania|Elk]], [[Jefferson County, Pennsylvania|Jefferson]], and the western portions of [[Centre County, Pennsylvania|Centre County]]. The Council was organized on July 24, 1930, and headquartered in DuBois. The Council adopted its constitution and by-laws on April 28, 1931, thanks to the efforts of John Q.

The first Council President was Lyle G. Hall (1930 – 1938, 1971), the first Council Scout Executive was H. B. Knepper (1930 – 1937), and the first Council Commissioner was H. T. Gray.

On May 1, 1932, the Bucktail Council Camp Committee reported two sites had been inspected for the location of the Council’s own camp. One was near [[East Branch Clarion River Lake|East Branch Clarion River]] in Elk County and the second site near a beaver dam along Mountain Run Stream in [[Penfield, Pennsylvania|Penfield]], Clearfield County. The Council approved the leasing of the land on Mountain Run which would be developed into the 380+ acre present-day Camp Mountain Run Scout Camp.<ref name=":1" /> The land was first leased from the Kersey Mining Company and the [[Pennsylvania|Commonwealth of Pennsylvania]]. Later the [https://visitpago.com/the-history-of-the-shawmuts-rise-and-fall/ Shawmut Mining Company], which acquired the Kersey Mining Company’s portion, sold its tract of land to the Council in 1939 for one dollar.

The Council did so by organizing a Camp Honor Society. Shortly thereafter, the Council’s Executive Board in January 1938 voted to apply for an [[Order of the Arrow]] Lodge Charter. This effort, led by John H. Keller (Second Council Executive, 1937 - 1942), would form the Lodge’s charter membership from those members of the original Honor Camper Society. On June 1, 1938, a ceremonial team from [[Laurel Highlands Council|Camp Twin Echo]] came to Camp Mountain Run to initiate those first members into the Order of the Arrow. The first official meeting of Ah’Tic Lodge was July 27, 1938, the name “Ah’Tic” taken from the [[Ojibwe|Chippewa]] language meaning “Standing Elk”.<ref name=":0" />{{Clear}} ===Chester County Council=== {{Main|Chester County Council}} {{Infobox WorldScouting |name=Chester County Council (#539) |image= |type=council |owner=[[Boy Scouts of America]] |headquarters= |location= [[West Chester, Pennsylvania|West Chester]] |country=United States |coords= |f-date= |defunct= |founders= |founder= |members= |chiefscouttitle=President |chiefscout= |chiefscouttitle2=Council Commissioner |chiefscout2= |chiefscouttitle3=Scout Executive |chiefscout3=Jeff Spencer |website=http://www.cccbsa.org }} The '''Chester County Council''' is a [[Boy Scouts of America]] service council that serves members of the Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, and Venturing programs in [[Chester County, Pennsylvania]] and Northeastern [[Cecil County, Maryland]].{{cn|date=August 2022}} ====Camps==== Horseshoe Scout Reservation *[[Camp Ware]] ([[Peach Bottom, Pennsylvania]]) *[[Horseshoe Scout Reservation|Camp Horseshoe]] ([[Rising Sun, Maryland]]) ====Order of the Arrow==== {{Clear}} ===Chief Cornplanter Council=== {{Infobox WorldScouting |name=Chief Cornplanter Council #538 |image= |type=council |owner=[[Boy Scouts of America]] |headquarters=[[Warren, Pennsylvania|Warren]] |location= |country=United States |coords= |f-date= |defunct= |founders= |founder= |members= |chiefscouttitle=President |chiefscout= |chiefscouttitle2=Council Commissioner |chiefscout2= |chiefscouttitle3=Scout Executive |chiefscout3=Raymond Tennent |website=[https://www.cornplanterbsa.org/ cornplanterbsa.org] }} Known as "America's Oldest Council," CCC is the oldest existing, continuously registered council in the United States.
