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 />
