Established in 1926 following a generous land donation by Belle Naish in memory of her husband, the Theodore Naish Scout Reservation has served as a premier outdoor classroom for Scouts for a century. Nestled in the rolling hills high above the Kaw River Valley in Bonner Springs, Kansas, Camp Naish will mark this centennial with a dedicated celebration on June 13, 2026. For generations of Scouts, this landscape has been more than just a camp; from the rugged trails of the Rimrock to the enduring traditions of the Tamegonit Lodge, it remains a cherished place where character, leadership, and adventure are forged.
To celebrate this centennial of Scouting, we are also releasing a series of limited edition patch sets to commemorate the historic milestone.

As we prepare for our centennial celebrations, we are revitalizing cherished traditions with a fresh twist. This year’s camp patch is a tribute to the very first emblems issued at Naish. Inspired by the felt, diamond-shaped patches of the mid-to-late 1930s—which featured a simple “N” and the two-digit year—this design bridges our history with the present.
