Schroon Lake Community Church

Our church is both United Methodist (UMC) and United Church of Christ (UCC).  It is our attempt to have wholeness in worship which should move us to social commitment and deep spiritual concerns with caring for one another as we try to walk in the footsteps of Christ. It is our intention to be inclusive, creative, and outgoing as a congregation with open hearts and minds to serve others.  Everyone is welcome and we mean EVERYONE.

Hiking Challis Pond

The trail traverses a hemlock and cedar forest. This is a very enjoyable just over half-mile hike to a pond; it's easy to fall in love with. The trail passes a small, attractive waterfall before it reaches the north end of Challis Pond.
