The council was formed in 2012 by the merger of nine councils. OrganizationThe Organization of the Boy Scouts of America councils in Area 2 of the Central Region is unique to Michigan. The Michigan Crossroads Council (MCC) was created by the merger of nine councils in the lower peninsula of Michigan. It is a coordinating council that oversees properties, personnel, and program. The MCC is then split into four sub-councils or "Field Service Councils" which are then divided into districts.
HistoryThe Scouting program in the Lower Peninsula of Michigan saw drastic drop in membership beginning in the early 2000s. The decrease in population was due to the economy in Michigan and the resulting outmigration of population, jobs and industry. The Area 2 Project was created in 2010 and studied the impact on Scouting and presented the Crossroads Recommendation, which proposed that the ten councils in Michigan merge into one large council.[1] Erie Shores Council in northwest Ohio voted not to join Area 2 project. Hiawathaland Council in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, voted against merging into the MCC and later merged with the Bay-Lakes Council in Wisconsin. As a result, in 2012, the remaining lower peninsula councils were merged into the Michigan Crossroads Council and its Field Service Councils. CampsAll properties in the Michigan Crossroads Council are operated by the council-wide Outdoor Adventures Division.[2] Each year, the Outdoor Adventures Committee assesses the council property and determines which programs each camp will be operating such as resident summer camps, weekend camping, or shooting sports activities.[3] The following is a list of camps that MCC operates: Resident campsThe following are open in the summer for Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Venturing resident camps. Additionally, they are also open for weekend reservations year-round.[4]
