List of locations in Camp Lazlo

These are the various areas which appear in the Cartoon Network animated series Camp Lazlo.

Camp Kidney

The camp where most of the show takes place. The campers only attend it in the summer. The sign states "Don't steal anything" as you are leaving. The scouts that take residence there are called the Bean Scouts, and the Squirrel Scouts are welcome to visit. Amongst the campers, Camp Kidney is known as the place which has "the coldest showers on earth".

Supporting details are broken snorkeling masks and a broken dock. Camp Kidney was almost shut down in Beany Weenies when Miss Mucus reported it to Commander Hoo-ha, but just as Lumpus was signing the dismissal form, the pencil broke. The population of Camp Kidney is 25 scouts.

All the cabins are related to beans, i.e. Jelly and Pinto cabins are named for beans.

Camp Kidney's Mascot is currently Edward as the Duke of Lice. Former mascots were Disco Octopus and Diplomat Duck, but their fate is left a mystery.

Like any normal summer camp, there are a varity of activities in which the scouts can participate. This list is not exhaustive, but rather some of the more interesting activities at Camp Kidney:
*Collecting firewood
*Latrine duty
*Leaf raking
*Dredging Leaky Lake
*Tug of war with Squirrel Scouts
*Running the Camp Kidney radio station
*Running the Camp store
*Being mascot
*Kitchen duty, with Chef McMuseli
*Running "The Bean!", the weekly camp newspaper, formerly known as "The Weekly Bean"
*Secret marshmallow roasts
*Shaving Lumpus's back
*Quilting
*Interpretive Dance
*Running the Movie Theater Projector

As we see in the prequel Where's Lazlo?, Bean Scouts are allowed to name their cabins after any particular type of bean. The current cabin assignments are:
* Jelly Cabin: Lazlo, Raj and Clam. Raj originally protested the name, since it's not a "real" bean.
* Pinto Cabin: Edward, Chip and Skip
* Fava Cabin: Samson, Dave and Ping Pong

Acorn Flats

Acorn Flats is across the lake from Camp Kidney, who's residents are a type of girl-scout called the Squirrel Scouts. Acorn Flats has obviously better facilities than Camp Kidney, as we see various recreational areas such as a tennis court. Acorn Flats does not have a nurse, do to the fact that no one gets sick or hurt. The current residents are Patsy Smiles, Nina Neckerly, Gretchen, Almondine, Amber, Honey, Toodie, Suzie, and several unnamed scouts. They have a watch tower to protect the camp, pelting tresspassers (and especially Bean Scouts) with watermelons upon sight. Acorn Flats hosts an annual International Cheese Ball, which appears to be an open invitation, as we see Camp Kidney residents as well as people from from Prickly Pines.

It appears that the Squirrel Scouts are free to visit Camp Kidney, as we sometimes see the Squirrels using Camp Kidney's mess hall. The two camps also share resources, such as the boy's bus, driven by Slinkman, for field trips to a ski resort and a geyser.. Not only are material assets shared, but sometimes personal, in the form of Samson, who is the postmaster for both camps.

Both Camp Kidney and Acorn Flats are part a larger hierarchical organization. Commander Hoo-ha is the overseer of both camps; "The Big Bean" is the head of all scout chapters, which includes Beans and Squirrels (and possibly Tomato) Scouts.

Acorn Flats activities are:
*Snail bathing
*Hornet racing
*Scummy dipping
*Scummy snail racing
*Horse back riding
*Tug-o-War (with Bean Scouts)
*Jai Alai
*Selling cookies, with a related business for the cookies
*A medieval-style battlefield called Madison Squirrel Garden, a reference to Madison Square Garden.
*Launching Watermelons
*A spa
*Running the Acorn Flats Sunflower Field
*A single appearance of an Italian restaurant named Don Calzones

The population is 10 scouts plus Jane Doe as Scout Mistress and Rubella "Ruby" Mucus as Jane Doe's assistant.

Prickly Pines
Prickly Pines is a town that was founded by Piercly R. Prickly. Its exact location is unknown, but it can be determined that it is located in the Western United States, judging by Camp Kidney's radio call sign KDNY. Some of the places to appear in Prickly Pines are, in alphabetical order:

* Beef Lumberjack's: A restaurant that lies in Prickly Pines. This is the restaurant that the bean scouts ate in when they had no food at Camp Kidney due to their chef, Chef McMuesli, being very ill. Raj and Clam also ate here in Where's Lazlo when they were looking for him. The restaurant only sells beef to eat, even when having dessert.

* Eats: A place with the appearance of a bar.

* Go-Kart stores: The town has two go-kart stores, down the street from each other:
** Cheapo Go-Kart Parts, who's sign states "When the camp paying for it is a tightwad".
** Deluxe Go-Kart parts. This one looks a little more upscale than the Cheapo one, the display models are bright and shiny. Their motto is "When mom and dad are unknowingly paying for it". This is where Edward buys his go-kart to win the annual go-kart race.

* Laundry Mat: Laundry shop owned by Laundry Matt.

* Manure Shop: A shop where Lazlo stacked 128,513 beans and is tied with the Navy Turtle.

* Pickles: An unknown store in Prickley Pines. It is implied that it sells pickles, otherwise it is the last name of the store owner. It is also located next to where the Squirrel Scouts sold their cookies.

* Prickley Depot: An information booth for travelers that came from the railway. It also has a poster of Beef Lumberjacks.

* Rosemary's: A pie shop with a baker from Switzerland.

* Waffleteria: A cafeteria of some sort that serves all waffles. It is mentioned by Scoutmaster Lumpus.

Other places of interest
These sites appear in the show, but are not in or around the major settings. Some of these are regularly featured, and some are one-time locations, but all have had major mention in their particular episode. Listed in alphabetical order, not in order of appearance.

* Ball Factory: A ball factory which has a malfunctioning ball machine, shooting the balls out the factory, which always end up hitting Samson on the head. Balls hitting Samson have become such a standard sight gag, one wonders if they ever fixed that machine?

* Dead Bean Drop: A log flume where Slinkman had ended his career as a pro dare-devil dressed like Evel Knievel.

* Dead Miner's Logging Chute: Not much is known about the Dead Miner's Logging Chute other than it is a shortcut to get to the Rock of Hope. It fell apart when Lazlo, Raj and Clam were climbing through it.

* Fantastical Caverns: A cavern that is fifteen minutes away from Old Geezer Geyser.

* Itchy Island: An island on Leakey Lake with a supposed buried treasure. Two ancient scouts now inhabit the island, having been stranded there for 60 years while trying to find the treasure.

* Kaffizzle River: A fictional river in India. This is where Kaffizzle River snowglobe came from along with the cure for Clam's love sickness in Love Sick. In "The Big Cheese" raj receives a cheese wheel he thought was from the kaffizzle but it was actually from China. The properties of the Kaffizzle River are disputed because in "The Big Cheese" it is said that the river is acidic and if you eat a Kaffizzle River cheese wheel you will disintegrate in 13 minutes. However, in "Love Sick" Lazlo and Raj make a special tea using the water from Raj's Kaffizzle River snow globe to give to Clam to cure his love sickness, but Clam did not disintegrate, though cooking it may alter its properties.

* Lake Nosebleed: Another lake in the area, where the Jelly Bean trio took Nurse Leslie on a vacation.

* Leakey Lake: A murky lake which has a lot of camper folklore surrounding it. According to the Beans: there are bodies of dead outlaws who's fingernails are still growing; a plug in the bottom of the lake; and a lake serpent. When the Bean Scouts fish, they end up pulling snow-globes out of the water, but apparently the Squirrel Scouts have better success, where the fish simply jump into their boat.Also Leakey Lake is shown in the upcoming game Cartoon Network Universe: Fusion Fall. A 50-foot bean named Clyde also lives in the lake.

* Math Camp: A camp that focuses on mathematics, which looks like a cross between a factory and a prison. They have their own "arithmeletes" which is a spoof of the word mathlete which is in turn a spoof on the word athlete.

* Mount Whitehead: A mountain where the top has snow all year long. At the top is a ski resort with bunny slopes, skiing and snowboarding. The bunny slopes are attended by a burley rabbit, and have a ski tow; while the regular ski slopes have chairlifts.

* Old Geezer Geyser: A geyser which the Beans and the Squirrels visited during a field-trip. The brochure states that it erupts every fifteen minutes.

* Pimpleback Mountain: A mountain where Lumpus' great grandfather was attacked by his own army men. The mountain's name is, no doubt, a parody of Brokeback Mountain.

* Prickley Forest: Not much is known about Prickley Forest except that it needs to be cleaned by Slinkman and it is connected to the Rock of Hope and Dead Miner's Logging Chute.

* Rock of Hope: The Rock of Hope is now known as The Loose Gravel of Hope. From the top of the pile can be seen the World Wide Bean Scout Jamboree.

* Secret Hot Spring: A hot spring which Raj and Samson both use for their various aches and pains, which erupts into them having an argument over who gets to use it. In the end, they come to an agreement, and both enjoy the soothing waters. Unknown to either, the water comes from Lumpus's bathtub.

* Slugfest: Every five years in August, slugs get together to celebrate Slugfest, which looks to be some sort of carnival. For three days, they slime each other and eat cotton candy. Slinkman has a nervous breakdown after Lumpus denies Slinkman's vacation, but Lumpus soon changes his mind, and even attends Slugfest with Slinkman.

* Sunny Moose Retirement Village: A retirement village where you can finally "sit back, relax, and do nothing".

* Tomato Camp: A hardcore military-style camp led by Commander Hoo Ha. When Bean Scouts have earned enough merit badges, they are promoted to Tomato Scouts and attend Tomato Camp. The sign says "Be a man"; the meals are "all you can eat" consisting of gruel, dirt, brine, and coffee grinds. The campers participate in para-military wargames utilizing tomatoes.

* Wampum Springs: A fancy, secluded, and obviously expensive retreat which the Jellies stumbled upon by mistake; the staff also mistook them for three eccentric executives, catering to their every whim.

* World Wide Bean Scout Jamboree: The World Wide Bean Scout Jamboree is a place where all the super scouts compete in numerous painful and dangerous activities, such as ninjistu, armpit smelling and stubbing your big toe against a brick wall. While jamborees are normally seasonal events, this one appears to be a permanent fixture.
