Registration for COMA’s 44th Clark Rogerson Foray Is Now Open

2024 CLARK ROGERSON FORAY

Registration for COMA’s 44th Clark Rogerson Foray (9/27/24 to 9/30 24) is now OPEN.

The overnight accommodations at this location (Berkshire Hills Eisenberg Camp, Copake, NY) are similar to those of a motel; all guest rooms have their own private bathroom & shower, and the home-cooked meals (the camp can accommodate most special diets) and all-day access to the heated pool make this facility unique. We will have an outstanding roster of invited mycologists and expert identifiers on hand, and foraging on the 460-acre premises and the surrounding parks is reliably satisfying.

On Saturday & Sunday there will be scheduled outings to designated parks, and the event features both afternoon and evening programs or workshops, with “social hours” (snacks, drinks, music) starting at 9 PM each night. You may register for the “full” foray, 3 days, 2 days, or even a single day, and Copake is within easy driving distance from anywhere in our area.

There will be a limited number of single-person rooms available, and these will be assigned on a “first come, first served” basis. (Please see the registration link for details.) There are also several options for sleeping 3 or even 4 people in “family” rooms, and we are pleased to pass along a 50% discount that the camp offers for children 12 and under. Please let us know if you are interested in the family rooms and/or the children’s discounted rates. (Questions? JLBCO@hotmail.com)

For the past several years, this event has filled up quickly, so anyone interested is advised to reserve a spot ASAP.
