Trooper Island Camp was developed by the Kentucky State Police as part of a
long range program of public service to the youth of Kentucky: a place where
the tensions and turmoil of our everyday lives can be forgotten; and for one
week young people can be given a touch of hope and desire of a better tomorrow.
Spearheaded by former State Police Director, Colonel James E. Bassett, the idea
was to establish a permanent recreational site where trooper and child could
share a week long experience.
A location was selected in a secluded corner of Dale Hollow Lake
near the Cumberland and Clinton County line, where an island was leased from
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and a non-profit charitable corporation was
formed.
