CAMP BARTON is a historic Scout camp which was owned and operated from 1922 through 2024 by the Ithaca Council, the Louis Aggasiz Fuertes Council, and the Baden-Powell Council. Frontenac Point on Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State has been home to Camp Barton since 1927.  In October of 2024 the property at Frontenac Point was sold to the New York State Department of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation. The site is now managed by the Three Falls LDC, a municiple non-for-profit comprised of the Village of Trumansburg, the Town of Ulysses, and the Town of Covert and the property is now, officially, a New York State Park. The Baden-Powell Council holds a lease agreement specific to the property at Frontenac Point with the Three Falls LDC so that Scouting programs may continue to operate within the confines of this historic site. 

The BADGES AT BARTON PROGRAM, is a division of Camp Barton's Summer Camp Experience. Badges at Barton is a unique camping experience which provides opportunities for skill aquisition, merit badge achievement, and rank advancement through a flexible, time efficient, & cost effective “Scout Customized Program.”

LEADERSHIP: Badges at Barton is both administrated and operated by the Camp Barton Staff Alumni Association (CBSAA) through close collaboration and support of the Baden-Powell Council. The Badges at Barton experience operates almost exclusively through volunteer efforts and relies heavily on donations, community support, and the CBSAA. The CBSAA includes a diverse & adept staff comprised of camp alumni & local professionals. These men and women uphold Camp Barton's most valued time honored traditions while executing a quality program from over 7 decades of experience and service to Scouting.
