Stony Point Looks to Keep Camp Bullowa from Being Sold by Boy Scouts

July 6, 2021 by helpdesk1

The fate of a beloved Boy Scout campground in North Rockland has gotten a bit more complicated following news last week that the organization has reached an $850 million settlement with more than 60,000 men who allege sexual abuse by adults in scouting over several decades. The agreement is the first legal settlement stemming from many lawsuits against the Boy Scouts, which filed for bankruptcy last year. Camp Bullowa and two other Hudson Valley properties the Boy Scouts owns have been put up for sale. Stony Point supervisor Jim Monaghan says he’s spoken to county and state representatives and Conservation Land Preservation Groups with the hope that the property can be saved and kept the way it is…

NPR reported that under the terms of the agreement, local councils are expected to contribute at least $300 million to the settlement fund. A Facebook group called “Save Camp Bullowa” has nearly 1,000 members.
