The Scout oath and law should be followed when staying on Seneca Waterways Council camp properties.
A representative from an arriving weekend camping group should stop in at Langie Lodge which is located on the right-hand side of the drive entering the camp. Check-in is handled by the Camp master Corps. and they will give you the necessary forms and facility keys. Groups will turn-in a unit roster of all persons staying at the camp. Firewood which has been ordered will have been already delivered to the facility.
The camp masters hold a meeting with cracker barrel on the first night of camping. This is usually held at 9 PM in the Langie Lodge conference room. Troops are asked to discuss their camping plans and make any special requests. Youth leaders are offered an opportunity to share.
Check out from camp is started by phoning the camp masters and requesting check out from camp. The units are expected to leave the facilities clean and as described on the documents given at check-in. The ranger and camp masters will visit, inspect the facilities, and lock up the cabin.
Off Season Camp Reservation Refund Procedure
With a recognition that sometimes even the best-laid plans need to be adjusted and that financial resources for our units are precious, the following camp reservation refund procedure is in place for all non-summer camp facility reservations.Each reservation fee includes a 50% non-refundable deposit which will be forfeit upon cancelation.
- More than 60 Days until Reservation: A refund of 50% of fees paid will be issued.
- Less than 60 Days until Reservation: No refund will be provided unless the facility is booked by another group on the date of your reservation.
If the camp closes because of weather, units will be contacted by the camping team. If the camp closes a full refund or a full credit for a future reservation within the same calendar year will be made.
The future reservation must be booked within two weeks of the time of cancellation.
All cancellations and rebooking must be done by speaking with our Camping and Program support staff by calling 585-241-8545.
If excessive cleaning is required, the campmaster or ranger will communicate to your party prior to your departure. The group can remain on site and return the facility to a clean condition or the cleaning fee will be applied. If your group leaves prior to being checked out by the ranger or campmaster, a cleaning fee may be added if excessive cleaning is required. In Scouting, be sure to always leave your campround cleaner than how you found it.
