The Joseph A. Citta Scout Reservation at Brookville is a Boy Scout Camp located in the Brookville section of Ocean Township, New Jersey. First opened in 1957, it was originally established as the Ocean County Scout Reservation, before becoming the Brookville Scout Reservation. The camp was later named for Joseph A. Citta, Ocean County's first public defender and philanthropist who donated the land to the Boy Scouts to create the scout reservation. It is located in the New Jersey Pine Barrens.[4]

Citta currently has nine campsites that are available year round. The sites are Apache, Seneca, Comanche, Iroquois, Algonquin, Kewe, Chippewa, Mohican, and Mohawk. For Resident Summer camp, two-man canvas tents are provided for camper usage. When summer camp is not in session, people are required to bring their own tent, except in Kewe which has year round lean-tos.
