Will Rogers Scout Reservation

Welcome to Will Rogers Scout Reservation, the premier Scout Summer Camp of the Cimarron Council. WRSR serves as the summer camp facility of the Cimarron Council. WRSR serves as host to many Council and District events including the Order of the Arrow and Cub Scouting.

Scout Summer Camp can be the most fulfilling experience that a Scout ever has. The activities that Scouts participate in, will stay with them long after growing into adulthood. This summer we will showcase Scouting for units across the Cimarron Council and from surrounding states. Our goal is to provide quality instruction in a wilderness setting to young men  and women as they prepare to become our Country's leaders.

The camp consists of 340 acres of Oak and Hickory forest. The camp features a centralized dining hall, regional shower facilities and program areas, with plenty of room to roam, explore, and learn. The camp also features large bluffs overlooking the Arkansas River, perfect for the curious rock climber.

WRSR is available throughout the year for use by packs, troops, crews and ships for day events, overnight camps, camporees and unit weekend camping, excluding when summer camp is in session in Cimarron Council.

Boating

The reservation includes a boat pond where numerous Scouts have learned to canoe, row and sail.

Climbing

Climbing and rappelling are avaliable on large bluffs overlooking the Arkansas River.

Shooting Sports

Will Rogers Scout Reservation has shooting ranges for archery, rifle and skeet. Units can use the ranges for a nominal fee and we welcome non-Scouting groups shooting sports. Use of facilities will be subject to complete compliance with policies established by the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America and the Cimarron Council, Boy Scouts of America, including certificates of Training in the proper use of those facilities and equipment and proper ratios of leaders to youth.

Swimming Pool

One of the favorite features of campers is the swimming pool. What better place to cool off in the Oklahoma sun than in the water?

History

According to the book “Thunderbird Tracks” by Ray Matoy, the history of Will Rogers Scout Reservation begins in February 1939 when the campsite was not yet purchased.  The camp committee was authorized to buy or take an option on the site, and if possible to secure immediate passion and to recommend a plan for financing and its development. 

At the April board meeting Elmer Heard reported the camp road was completed. Latrines were to be completed within one week, and the water line was being constructed. The Camp-O-Ral was scheduled for the new camp site on May 25-27.  

The new, and yet unnamed, summer camp was attended in 1939 by 30 troops and 308 Scouts, but $600 was still owed on the 210 acre site.

Eagle Scout Ray R. Matoy, age 20, was camp director with a salary of $15 per week.
