In The Adirondacks Camp Santanoni is a collection of grand, rustic buildings situated on secluded Newcomb Lake in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State. For the past twenty years, Santanoni has sat vacant on state land, with an uncertain fate. Recently the State of New York committed itself to preserve Camp Santanoni and use it for public educational purposes.
Planning is now underway, and restoration work has begun.
An intern is needed to spend the summer at Santanone in order to educate the public as to its architectural and historical significance and gain further support for its preservation. Santanoni is a 4.7 mile hike from the hamlet of Newcomb. The Intern must be in good physical and mental condition to handle an extended period in the wilderness, frequent contact with the public during the day, and isolation each evening. Although there will be support from local townspeople and volunteers, considerable self-sufficiency is required. Internship dates are June 28-September 4, 1995.
