Sam McLamb Philmont Campership Fund

The McLamb family established a campership in memory of Sam McLamb, who passed away after a battle with cancer in June 2021 at the age of 33. The Sam McLamb Philmont Campership Fund will provide a $1,000 annual stipend to a deserving Chief Seattle Council Scout attending Philmont Scout Ranch. Friends and family are encouraged to make donations to this fund, so that additional camperships may be funded in Sam’s memory.

Sam McLamb was an Eagle Scout, member of the Order of the Arrow, and a leader in both Troop 600 in Bellevue and Troop 112 in Paris, France, where he began his Scout adventures. Sam especially enjoyed camping at Camp Baden Powell in England, Camp Parsons and Camp Sheppard in Washington. Most of all, he held his High Adventure trip to Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico as a special memory.

This fund will exist in perpetuity as part of Chief Seattle Council’s permanent endowment fund.
