ERE in the heart of the Adirondacks we have our own is the "Woods" and our buildings are of the woods. The assembly rooms are spacious and attractive and the sleeping quarters are comfortable rustic bungalows with baths and electric lights in each. Cabins that are always ready to welcome you back from the trail, and which will keep you dry and warm through the stormiest nights. They make colds almost unknown in camp and have done much to secure for us a most enviable health record.

To fill the days, we have all the activities of the usual camp, plus the best of aesthetic dancing, fishing, archery and rifle practice, and many trips of two days and longer by foot, by horse, and by canoe.

Horseback riding is always the favorite sport and in '27 it again is to be under Baretto de Souza, dean of the country's horsemen and author of many books and articles on Equitation. In addition to the daily rides there are a number of longer trips and these are included in the season fee. As is everything that the camp offers.

There are no "extras." All materials, laundry, the trips and even the tutoring, where it is desired, are free. No additional money can pass through the hands of the camp.

Our table, while more elaborate than most, is wholesome, well cooked, and well served. Our councillor staff is exceptional -- in training, in personality, and in experience. Three miles away the management owns and operates "The Mohawk," a modern hotel for parents and friends.

If this description and these pictures of our "Camp in the Wilderness" appeal to you, we will be happy to mail you a booklet and to answer all your questions Address:
