The council's nine professional staff members work with volunteer District Board composed of the regions most prominent business and civic leadership. The council owns and operates one long term camp, Camp Maubila, which is the council's centerpiece for camping, water sports, and high adventure. The current property is located about one hour 40 minutes from downtown Mobile and encompases over 686 acres. The property includes a lake for water sports, a swimming pool, a rappelling tower, one large dinning hall, campsites and facilities for archery, marksmanship and nature study. It also includes a state of the art conference and training facility for weekend conferences, used by adult Scouters. More than 75,000 (camper days) have been logged at Camp Maubila during the past thirty years. Camp Pushmataha, the council's weekend primitive facility, was at one time the Council Camp. It is located in Citronelle approximately one hour from downtown Mobile. It encompasses 86 acres. The facility is available to all boys and is opened year round. Many Scouts and leaders have enjoyed the camp for over 60 years. The Council Service Center, name for Dr. Monte L. Moorer, was renovated and repaired during the last major capital campaign held in 1995. The Service Center is located 10 minutes from downtown Mobile and is very accessible to Interstate 65 and Interstate 10. It serves as a resource for all volunteers in the four counties we serve. It also includes a full Scout Shop for Volunteers to pick up many badges of rank and supplies which are needed for their programs. Calls come from as far away as Alaska to service the needs of Scouting throughout the country. Eight Scouting professionals and support staff are also in this facility. This center is the most heavily utilized of all council properties. The Scouting program is open to all boys, ages 6-21 and girls, ages 14-21. Its members belong to Scout Units that are chartered partners with the Boy Scouts of America including churches, synagogues and community organizations. It is because of these institutions that Scouts learn principles and ideas found in the Scout Oath and Law.
