The Choconut Foundation is an organization consisting of alumni, families, and friends
associated with Camp Choconut, located on Lake Choconut near Friendsville, Pennsylvania in the Blue Ridge Mountains next to the New York State border.
Camp Choconut is a residential boys’ camp that was founded in 1896 as one of the first summer camps in the country. It provides a setting for boys where outdoor activities such as camping, backpacking, canoeing, and sports help to instill the values of cooperation, teamwork, responsibility, and friendship. Our camp also teaches archery, swimming, canoeing, hiking, construction, fishing, woodworking, and our legendary “big games,” some of which are 100 years old.
Our 86th season is a six-week session from June 26 – August 7. A concurrent three-week session is available from June 26– July 17. The second half offers a multi-day canoe trip on a local river and the “Villa Hunt,” a three-day game of hide-and-seek on and around our square-mile campus. Family Camp is planned for August 9 - 15.
