First Encampment, The
The Boy Scouts of America has been called the largest environmental organization in the country, and its handbook a conservation best seller. That both were launched one hundred years ago on Lake George, at Silver Bay, might have remained forgotten were it not for the work of a fifteen-year-old film maker from Latham.
Blake Cortright's The First Encampment, a documentary about the Scouts first camp at Silver Bay, will be shown on public television stations later this year. In 1910, representatives of boy's groups from across the country gathered at Silver Bay to create an experimental camp devoted to the teaching of outdoor and leadership skills.
