Making Unforgettable Memories on Lake George at Silver Bay

In this episode of ADK Talks, we visit a unique destination on the Queen of American Lakes: Silver Bay YMCA. Lindsey Butler, Executive Director of Sales and Marketing, is our guest as we take a deep dive into this unique place to visit and stay along one mile of gorgeous Lake George shoreline.

Lindsey provides all you need to know about why Silver Bay has been a favorite get-away for families and friends for over 100 years. But it’s more than just a place to stay; Lindsey describes how Silver Bay is the “Swiss Army Knife” of destinations because it serves so many purposes—great activities, water sports, lecture series, hiking, performing arts, skilled arts and crafts and much more. Visitors can purchase a day or season pass to enjoy Silver Bay’s fantastic facilities.

We also discuss Silver Bay’s storied history, including its important role in creating the Boy Scouts (soon to be known as Scouting America in 2025) and other interesting facts.
