6102 Boy Scout Rd.
Camp Belzer Boy Scout Camp
Lawrence, IN
1-Alarm Building Fire with multiple extra companies
Heavy Fire upon arrival, flames could be seen for miles in the night
sky.
Camp Belzer, a 130 acre boy scout camp that dates to 1918, next to Fort
Harrison State Park.
As many as 60 firefighters, using multiple tankers from several area fire
departments
responded to the large building that houses the mess hall/cafeteria at
the Boy Scout Camp.
Firefighters had a very
hard time getting water on the fire because there is only one hydrant in
the area,
so water had to be trucked in.
Fire took well over 2 hours to get under control.
No injuries reported.
