Troop 482 will travel to Boy Scout Camp Seph Mack which is located on the shores of Yellow Creek Lake which is within Yellow Creek State Park, Indiana County, PA.
We have reserved the Arrowhead Campsite the weekend of April 29th and will arrive with our very cool new equipment trailer in tow! We look forward to Camping, Hiking, Fishing and Boating! An Iron Chef Cook-Off will be the highlight of Saturday's Supper plans!
The 2,981-acre Yellow Creek State Park is located in Indiana County along one of the first “highways” in the state, the Kittanning Path. This trail was used by the Delaware and Shawnee nations and by early settlers. Camp Seph Mack located at 1966 South Harmony Road Penn Runn, PA 15765 encompasses approximately 200 acres within the boundaries of Yellow Creek State Park and lies along the north shore with of almost 4,000 feet of lake frontage. Camp Seph Mack takes its name from the late J. Sephus Mack of Indiana, the patriarch of the family that originally donated much of this land for youth activities in the 1930’s. The 720-acre Yellow Creek Lake is a destination for boaters and anglers. The lake and park are an important rest stop for migrating birds. The park is named for Yellow and Little Yellow creeks, which create the lake. The creeks have lots of yellow clay in the banks and bottoms
