1. You can always spend the day working in camp. Want to paint a building? We'll even supply the equipment. (It was worth a try –- besides, think of the money you'd save!)

2. Honesdale is located about 20 minutes from camp. There are a variety of specialty shops, stores, restaurants and local attractions.

3. Middletown is about 60 minutes from camp. Middletown is a city with several large and attractive shopping malls. The malls are your best bet and have a good selection of movies.

4. Cooperstown is about 2 hours by car. Home of the Baseball Hall of Fame and Doubleday Field,it hosts beautiful Otsego Lake. A nice idea for a day trip.

5. Travel through Oneonta, NY, a quaint college town, worth seeing.

6. New York City is only 2.5 hours away! Whether by bus or by car, the City is an attractive highlight. The office will help you coordinate your travel plans. Plan to get back to camp on time!

All counselors will hopefully have one period off during each day and a few evenings from 9:30 until curfew to unwind. Two nights per week, every counselor must take an OD (on-duty) shift watching his/her bunk at night from the end of Evening Activity until counselor curfew. Additionally, the entire staff is on camp every Saturday night for a staff meeting, staff party and a host of organized sporting events only for staff.

During time off counselors and other staff may use the camp facilities as long as that use does not interfere with ongoing camper activities. Waterfront facilities are available only when a qualified lifeguard is on duty. The Canteen (snack bar) is open everyday from 9:00 PM and 11:45 PM.  We also provide a bus to town 6 nights/week for the staff at a cost of $3 roundtrip. In addition, on days off, we will do our best to reasonably accommodate staff needs for rides into and out of town. Information regarding camp transportation will be provided when you get to camp.
