NoBe history and setting — 380 acres in the Kittatinny Mountains since 1927
Since 1927, No-Be-Bo-Sco has served thousands of Scouts and their troops. Set on 380 acres in New Jersey's Kittatinny Mountains, No-Be-Bo-Sco's idyllic landscape offers troops an opportunity to experience Scouting in a way that has changed very little since the early days of scout camp. We take pride in offering a top-quality program true to Scouting's roots.
