| | Sargent Center is a four-season, multiple-use, outdoor education and recreation facility located in southern New
Hampshire, less than two hours from Boston. The Camp offers a wide range of year-round outdoor activities and
programs to the Boston University community and the general public.
With 850 acres of unspoiled woodlands and meadows, an extensive trail system for hiking and ski touring, a 60-acre
pond for swimming and canoeing, two lodges and overnight accommodations for up to 175 people, Sargent
Center is an
ideal site for conferences, orientation programs, retreats, and vacations. A four-bedroom cottage is open year round for
faculty and staff rental.
The staff conducts Leadership Training and Team Building Programs designed to increase group cohesion and
effectiveness for student and professional groups, including departmental work teams. Sargent
Center is also used as a
field site for research projects in physical and social sciences, including collaboration with the National Radio Astronomy
Observatory's radio telescope installation on camp property.
Faculty and staff children, ages 10-16, are invited to join in Adventure Center each summer. Activities include rock
climbing, mountain biking, ropes course, canoeing, and more.
