Summer Camps--ages 12 to 17

Full or partial scholarships for two summer camps are available to any children ages 12 through 17 living in the Adirondacks.

Weeks for 12- to 14-year-olds at Camp Colby near Saranac Lake, which features environmental education, start on June 27 and go through Aug. 7.

At Pack Forest Camp, near Warrensburg, that same age group can take part for a week at a time July 18 through 24 and Aug. 1 through 7.

Weeks for 15- to 17-year-olds are June 27 through July 17 and July 25 through 31.

To qualify, students need to show a sincere interest in living in the outdoors in a natural setting with other campers and participating in fun activities, classes and games that teach the wise use of natural resources.

The scholarships are sponsored by the Cold River Chapter of the Adirondack Mountain Club, located in the central Adirondacks. Enrollment is limited and will depend on space available. Two scholarships will be awarded.
