Ken, I am 78 today, but as a kid, I went to a Fresh Air fund camp on Lake Stahahe. I was told then that there were 16 camps around the lake.
I do not remember the name of the camp I was in but I do remember the name of Pequot. It may have been because it was described to us as the widlest of the boys camps. Wild in behaviour that is not wild life ! I guess I was in an all girls camp. I lived in N. Y. C. And was sent here with my sister as part of the program to get city kids out into the fresh air for a while. I still remember the star gazing walks to the lake late at night. Being fearful of water, I was cajoled rather insistantly into learning how to swim, so that I got my Red Cross beginners card.
For the resistant like my self we were once taken to a camp on the lake for handicapped children. We saw children missing limbs that could swim. We were then told there is no such thing as I can't. !
A life lession was learned then, I guess.
Lea:
Camps Sebago and Wabenake are both on Wabenake Rd with the latter closer to County Highway 106
Ken Fairchild:
I'm 73 now but still relive the years spent on Lake Stahaha at then Camp Pequot. That's over 63 years ago. Does anyone know the camps name now? I even still remember the camp cheer.
Paul:
As a kid growing up in the early 60s my dad use to take us there and I wonder what it's like now.
Glen Southwick:
I attended Camp Pratt on the lake in the 1950s. It was a YMCA camp back then. Lake was pristine and the fishing fabulous

Lake Stahahe is always a pleasure to visit. A magnificent site to camp here at Lake Stahahe is Robert Moses, and on a tremendous day it's a great idea to spend the day at Old Sebago Beach. Hiking along the Kakiat Trail is glorious fun, and you can run the rapids of Ramapo River. From a rainfall point of view Lake Stahahe is a pretty normal location; May is the month that gets the most rain; February on the other hand is the driest.
