Camp Skymeadow is located at the southern tip of Armstrong County, near Avonmore, about a one-hour drive from both Pittsburgh and Johnstown and about 150 miles south of Erie.
Camp Skymeadow sits on 371 acres of forested hills and serves as our council’s horse program headquarters! All campers will meet and ride the horses during each resident camp session at Camp Skymeadow. However, horse sessions will have daily, scheduled horse activities. With miles of trails, girls will continue to be challenged as they progress through our riding levels.
As age, skill, and weather permit, campers can create crafts, take a dip in the pool, try out archery, and have s’mores over a campfire.
