Welcome to the 2015 season at <strong>Sabattis</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong> <strong>Camp</strong>.<br />
Located within the beautiful Adirondack Park in Long Lake NY, <strong>Sabattis</strong> is<br />
surrounded by a plethora of mountains, hiking trails, streams and ponds. Here,<br />
your son will have the opportunity to experience Scouting as it was meant to be<br />
when Sir Robert Baden-Powell started the Scouting movement in England in 1907.<br />
Outdoor activity is the most appealing feature of the Scouting program that draws<br />
boys from all walks of life to experience activities not available in the city. <strong>Sabattis</strong><br />
offers hiking, swimming, boating, Scoutcraft, COPE, shooting sports, archery,<br />
canoeing, and high adventure treks among the many weekly activities.<br />
Scouting here at <strong>Sabattis</strong> is tailored to meet both the needs and desires of Scouts<br />
and their families. Scouts ‘grow’ in maturity here at <strong>Sabattis</strong> as they learn the<br />
teamwork necessary for patrol cooking each meal. This experience will prepare<br />
the Scout for his troop campouts through the coming year. It also helps develop a<br />
community within the Scouts as they learn to work together with their fellow<br />
Scouts.<br />
This guide has been prepared so that you and your Scouts will get the most out of<br />
the time spent here at <strong>Sabattis</strong>. Please take a few minutes to acquaint yourselves<br />
with how the camp operates and what it can provide to Scouts, and their leaders<br />
who spend a part of their summer here.<br />
Yours in Scouting,<br />
