Drawing of the future cabin

Camelot Bunkhouse Fundraising

A core part of the MITOC community, and in particular our access to the mountains, continues to be our well-loved "Camelot" cabin, located in central New Hampshire. As you may know, Camelot was built in the 1970s (on a shoestring budget), and it is nearing the end of its useful life. Since 2013, the Outing Club has been working to build new, safe and modern sleeping quarters on the Camelot property, which will ensure that MITOC can fulfill our mission for decades to come.

MITOC partnered with Maclay Architects to design a new bunkhouse for Camelot which will be located approximately 100m from the existing cabin. The new bunkhouse will contain five bedrooms (sleeping ten persons each), a large central hallway, and a covered deck. We anticipate the cost of the new bunkhouse to be approximately $500,000.

With the design now complete, we are actively seeking donations. If you are able, please consider donating to help us hit our fundraising target. We broke ground on site preparation in 2024, and fundraising permitting, we will complete the new bunkhouse in 2027. This project will ensure we can fulfill our mission for the next generation of MITOCers.

Outing Club to Make Trip to Blue Hills

The Tech, Vol. 44, No. 4, page 3 · March 26, 1924

Read the original issue on archive.org →

A hike through the Blue Hills Reservation on Saturday, March 29, is being planned by the Outing Club, starting from the main lobby and going by street car to Blue Hill Station. The hike will begin with the ascent of Big Blue, the highest point of land around Boston. It will include Wildcat Crater, Hoosicwhisick Pond, Hancock Hill, and Breakneck Ledge, returning to the car line by the Neponset River Parkway. The trip will cover about ten miles of hiking, and will cost not more than about 50 cents.

The Club will soon begin an extensive series of trips, including weekly horseback rides, and an all day trip to Mount Monadnock, outside of Jaffrey, N. H., to take place Sunday, April 5. More trips will be arranged as soon as roads are in condition again.
