The '''Chickasaw Council''' serves Scouts in the [[Memphis metropolitan area]], including all of Shelby County (Tennessee) and Crittenden County (Arkansas), as well as fifteen counties in the [[Mississippi Delta]], including districts that were merged from the Delta Area Council in 1993.

====Council camps====
[[Kia Kima Scout Reservation]], near [[Hardy, Arkansas]] on the [[South Fork Spring River]], was founded in 1916 by Memphis philanthropist [[Bolton Smith]]. The reservation, which hosts Chickasaw Council summer camps, is split into three properties: Camp Osage, Camp Cherokee and the Ozark Venture Base. The original Kia Kima facilities (pre-1963) have been restored and maintained as Old Kia Kima by a separate non-profit group.

'''[[Chickasaw Council#Camps|Camp Currier]]''', Eudora, Mississippi, near Memphis, was founded in 1925 to host weekend camping and training events throughout the year. (The more remote Kia Kima operated only during the summer for most of its history.)
