The comfortable overnight accommodations at this location (Copake, NY - within easy driving distance from anywhere in the greater southern New England area) are similar to those of a motel, and all guest rooms have their own private bathroom & shower. The home-cooked meals (the facility can accommodate most special diets), and all-day access to the heated pool make this facility unique. There will be a limited number of single-person rooms available, and these will be assigned on a "first come, first served" basis. (Please see the registration link for details.) There are a few rooms that can sleep 3 or even 4 people in "family-style" lodging, and we are pleased to pass along a discount that the camp offers for children 12 and under. We will have an outstanding roster of invited mycologists and expert identifiers on hand, and foraging on the 460-acre premises and the surrounding parks is reliably excellent.
There will be scheduled outings to designated parks on Saturday & Sunday, and the event features both afternoon and evening programs or workshops, with "social hours" (snacks, drinks, music) starting at 9 PM each night. You may register for the "full" foray, 3 days, 2 days, or even a single day. The Clark Rogerson Foray is well known throughout the region, not only as a great learning experience, but it's also such wonderful fun that we've been doing it for the past 46 years! For the past several years, this event has filled up quickly, so we strongly advise reserving a spot ASAP. (Go to for details or registration.)
