As the summer of 2007 draws closer, AGBU's Camp Nubar is gearing up for another fun and stimulating season in the breathtaking Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. Registration is now open to Armenian youth, ages 8 to 15, and AGBU encourages new and returning campers to come take advantage of the recently renovated facilities and enjoy all the exciting activities Camp Nubar has to offer.

Situated on 365 acres of unspoiled forestland with its own spring-fed lake, Lake Arax, Camp Nubar provides a diverse summer program for young Armenians from around the world with cultural, social and recreational activities. Campers can choose from an incredible variety of activities, including archery, Armenian language and cooking classes, arts and crafts, basketball, boating, computer classes, horseback riding, photography, sailing, softball, swimming, tennis, volleyball and water skiing.

With newly renovated and expanded facilities for both campers and staff, Camp Nubar has kept pace with the growing demand for modern and spacious accommodations. Just last year, construction was completed on numerous camper cabins, the staff lounge and a new Almuni House. Accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA), Camp Nubar is unique among Armenian camps in its ability to ensure a high-quality program that meets or exceeds the most rigorous safety supervision and competency standards in the industry.
