Summer camp is a place where children come to grow, learn, have fun and build
lasting memories. Camp is more than just a place to go. It is an
adventure to experience. At camp, children learn and practice the skills
of making and keeping friends.
At Timber Lake we foster values of sharing, integrity, responsibility, and
respect in a friendly, safe environment of fun. They learn to value
others by being valued themselves. And they leave camp with memories that
will last a lifetime. This is what we have been doing successfully for
more than four decades. It is what Camp was always meant to be.
A traditional, 8-week co-ed camp, Timber Lake is made up of two separate
campuses; one for boys and one for girls, with campers ranging from 7
through 16 years old. Located in New York's Catskill Mountains,
its 500 secluded acres are only 2 and ½ hours North of New York City and
feature two private spring-fed lakes and an outstanding array of facilities.
Our camps’ mission is to teach children the skills of making and keeping friends, while building their self-esteem, self-confidence and resilience.
Rookie Day is a great way for NEW families to
share the Timber Lake Experience first-hand. Children entering 2nd through 4th grade in the fall of 2009 have the opportunity to enjoy a grand slam day of camp activities and adventures!
