Camps

Camp Waubeek

Camp Waubeek was the originally used area within the reservation. The camp had been minimally used for some time. Some of the facilities include a dining hall, a medics quarters, and various other small shelters. During the summer, the camp was used for a week youth training program call NYLT. For the off season the camp is used for wildness survival training and other programs.

Camp Wakonda

Camp Wakonda is the currently used camp for most activities. Boy Scout, Cub Scout, and special camps are held in June–August every summer. The camp includes many large facilities.
