The Wisconsin Maritime Museum does scout overnights all the time, nearly on a weekly basis. They don't do outdoor overnight camping, but they deal with a lot of the issues you identified. If you contact them for info, ask for either Karen Duvalle or Mike Johnson. http://www.wisconsinmaritime.org/learning-programs/overnight-programs/
Also, the museum I work at also does overnights with scout groups and other groups. Contact Melissa Wersinger at the number below for more details.
