My kid will be about 5 hours east of your son at Goshen in the mountains of VA during the same week. This is the BSA reservation that his troop usually attends although last year they went to Camp Barnhardt in NC and were introduced to the apparently delicious Cheerwine.
I don't think my son is planning to actually sleep or relax at Goshen as he officially signed up for 7 badges and is going to attempt to squeeze in an 8th. None are Eagle-required as he has all those. The potential 8th one has a lot of overlap with the 7th one so he is knocking out all the paperwork on both this week.
I took a peek at the Camp McKee website. It looks like a fun camp for the Scouts. I was curious if they had the same crazy out-of-order prereqs for certain badges the way Goshen does and they do. If your son is doing Fishing or EP MBs, I can PM you what the SM and I were laughing about tonight while waiting for the inquisition to end in the other room.
