Absract Camp No-Be-Bo-Sco is a 381-acre Boy Scout camp located in the northwestern portion of New Jersey that exhibits many of the planning opportunities characteristic of small, low-intensity private forest landowners and private recreation areas. Through proper forest planning, consulting foresters have been able to improve the owner’s ability to deliver its program at the camp, address issues endemic to highly stocked mid-successional oak forests, and improve biodiversity. This case study examines the role of conservation planning within the Boy Scout organization as it pertains to individual camps, challenges of working for charitable not-for-profit corporations, and the role that foresters can play with smaller landowners particularly in a state or area lacking a robust forest products industry. |
