Named for the Scouts provinicial commissioner, Colonel James Hawsack Woods, Camp Woods has played an important role in the history of Scouts Canada and in the development of youth from all over the world. Since its opening in 1932, the property has been developed to take advantage of the proximity to both of Alberta’s largest cities, Calgary and Edmonton, as well as the extensive shoreline. The area provides for a variety of outdoor adventure activities including canoeing/ kayaking, sailing, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, archery, as well as a specialized low ropes and obstacle course. While having purpose built facilities designed for youth programming, the site features wide swaths of birch forests and open space, offering multiple opportunities for a variety of uses. Comprised of 104 acres of land with approximately 1.2 kilometres of frontage along Sylvan Lake, the property is currently designated for recreational/ residential use under the Lacombe County official plan.
