Since 1944, Camp Karankawa has been a place for young people to take chances, try something new, make new friends and develop lifelong values.
Camp Karankawa is located on Lake Corpus Christi, near Mathis. This 130-acre Scout camp includes 16 campsites, large swimming pool, waterfront with canoes, rowboats, kayaks, and sailboats, craft areas, nature area and trails, archery range, rifle and shotgun range, campfire amphitheater, trading post, 300-person dining hall and other facilities including a large indoor training center. It has year around “weekend” use as well as the full summer camp operation. It is staffed the year around by a resident “Ranger” Frank Funke.
To provide an environment that is fit for adventures, that creates lasting memories, and that instills life-long values.
