LOCATION

Chateaugay Lake is a mid-point of the summer playground, situated in the Northern edge of the Adirondacks. A one hour's drive takes one to Lake Champlain, the St. Lawrence and the Saranac-Lake Placid section. It is seventy miles from Montreal and twenty-eight miles from Plattsburg. The lake itself is twelve miles long, having an elevation of over thirteen hundred feet and is surrounded by evergreen and birch clad hills and mountains.

HOUSING AND EQUIPMENT 

All Housing is in Substantial Buildings, there being seven in all.
The main lodge is a beautiful stone columned building on the shore of the lake, with wide porches, living room, six fine bedrooms, faculty dining room, two fireplaces, kitchen, three baths, a large sleeping porch sixty feet in length.
Adjoining the main lodge in the rear is a large open air, screened dining porch which is also used as a recreation hall for parties, dances and orchestra rehearsals.
A spacious cabin near the main lodge on the East is used as sleeping quarters by senior girls, and the junior girls are comfortably housed in the main lodge.
The second floor of the large boathouse, extending out over the lake, furnishes excellent sleeping quarters for the intermediate girls.
Boys of each group have their own cabins, and additional cabins are constructed each season to accommodate increases in the enrollment.
All buildings are screened and electrically lighted.
