Clear Lake Scout Camp

Located in Putnam Valley, NY, the Clear Lake Scout Camp (owned by the Westchester-Putnam Council of the Boy Scouts of America) sits within a small section of the largely undeveloped 1,400-acre Clear Lake Scout Reservation. The purpose of the camp is to provide weekend indoor camping facilities for scouts from the surrounding communities.

Finished in 2001, the camp facilities include nine cabins and three restrooms for scouts, as well as a smaller scoutmaster cabin and restroom. Because of the camp’s remote location and the Scout Council’s desire to be environmentally responsible, each of Clear Lake’s four restroom facilities use Clivus composting toilet systems. The reduced-size septic system for greywater, which the composting toilets allowed, represented a significant financial savings for the camp.
