Scouts
Petersburg OEC has three campsites for scouts.
The Orchard is an area which can accommodate
80-100 people. It is completely surrounded by a 10 foot wall, providing ideal shelter from the elements. There is a water tap on site as well as toilets and a shower block.
Lakeshore-Sites 1 & 2:
The Lakeshore camp sites can cater for groups of 25-30 people. Both are extremely scenic. A certain amount of shelter is provided by trees for lakeshore campsite 1, lakeshore campsite 2 is enclosed on two sides by walls. Water is available on both sites. Shower blocks and toilets in the centre can be used by arrangement.
