CAMP OGONTZ
Camp Ogontz is a magnificent 300 acre facility in the White Mountains of
northern New Hampshire located in the rural town of Lyman, twelve miles south of
Littleton.

The camp is very rustic and includes log-cabin accommodation, meeting halls and lodges, a
dining hall where wonderful home-cooked meals are served, a recital hall, tennis courts, a
secluded lake, pine woods, hiking trails beside streams and waterfalls, and spectacular
mountain views. The atmosphere is informal and conducive to study and relaxation.
Living space is quite varied and includes rustic
"Adirondack" style log cabins, dormitory type cabins and lodges. All have
electricity and some have indoor bath facilities. Shower rooms and toilet facilities are
always nearby. Linens may be rented for a nominal fee or you can bring your own.
Accommodations are assigned by age group by the KBHC staff. Ogontz is run on a cooperative plan; all KBHC participants, faculty and
staff will be asked to help with food preparation and chores. These duties are
non-demanding and generally contribute to the atmosphere of camaraderie and cordiality
which pervades this unique enterprise.
Camp
Ogontz is owned and operated by George and Lynn Kent of Westerly, Rhode Island
where Prof. Kent serves on the music faculty at the University of Rhode Island.
George is also the founder and music director of The Chorus of Westerly and he
and Lynn organize choral seminars at Ogontz every summer. They also host other
programs at the camp including the New England Conservatory Suzuki Summer
School.
