MIT Outing Club

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.

Eleven members of the Outing Club braved zero weather to climb 4,000-foot Whiteface Mountain in New Hampshire last Sunday. The group left Technology at 1 P. M. Saturday, and after a late arrival at Center Sandwich made an attempt at moonlight skiing which proved rather unsuccessful because of insufficient snow.

The night was spent at Center Sandwich, and the mountain climbing was done the next morning. The party was led by Dean Peabody, Associate Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering.

Skiing pictures will be shown to the Outing Club by Dr. Ernst A. Hauser tomorrow in Room 6-120 at 5:00 P. M.
