Our trips are broken down into three categories.
Wilderness trips are designed for participants who are looking for a challenging, outdoor experience away from civilization and creature comforts. The group will be staying primarily in tents in primitive campsites, which means running water, showers and toilets are not available.Participants will have opportunities to take on leadership roles and learn back-country skills such as how to read a map and compass, knot tying and water purification techniques.

Multi-sport trips are designed for participants who are looking for a fun, outdoor experience. The group will be staying in tents in established campsites and campgrounds (unless otherwise noted) during their trip, where they will have access to showers, flushing toilets and running water. Participants will be responsible for camp chores (setting up tents, cooking, cleaning, etc) and most meals will be prepared by the group members on camping stoves. Trips destinations include Maine, West Virginia, Vermont, White Mountain and more!

Our Service Learning Adventures offer three trips partnered with Habitat for Humanity™ to build, landscape and create a home where a deserving family can start a new life. Gain the community service hours that many high school’s require for graduation, add to your college resume, and most importantly, make great friends and learn new skills while giving a part of yourself to service. (Must be 14 years or older to participate.)

We would like to welcome you to Forest Lake Camp, one of America’s great sleepaway camps since 1926!

Our camp was founded by H.T. Confer, and remains in family hands to this day. Since 1926, thousands and thousands of boys and girls have experienced the wonders of Forest Lake Camp, gaining independence, developing self-confidence, establishing strong new friendships, touching the majesty of the outdoor world, and sampling an extraordinarily broad range of activities never experienced before.

We very much encourage you to take a look at our website, www.forestlakecamp.com, and begin to get to know us. Read about our values and principles. Look at our Directors and Counselors. Order our free DVD and see for yourself the absolute beauty of Forest Lake Camp, our fields, our private Adirondack mountain lake with its extensive swimming and boating activities, our tennis and basketball courts, our horses for our outstanding riding program. View and read about the whitewater rafting trips, the hiking and fishing trips, our performing arts programs, and so much more. Read the testimonials, unsolicited, and check our parent references.

Forest Lake Camp is a wholesome, healthy, life-shaping experience for a child. It just might be right for yours.

Sincerely,

The Directors of Forest Lake Camp
