     History
    The fourth of the Massawepie Scout Camps, Forester opened in 1969 as a remote camp for Senior Scouts interested in Patrol Cooking. It closed in 1994 partially due to its waterfront losing certification due to a rapid underwater drop-off point (Deer Pond) Remained abandoned until 2006 when part of the property was leased to a hunting club for five years.

     Future Plans
    probably no future for most of the property; remains abandoned as it cannot be resumed as a summer camp due to its waterfront issues and distance from the camp office/health lodge.
