A residential environmental education camp operated by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation.
The DeBruce Environmental Education Camp, for youth who are 11 to 13 years old, is located in Sullivan County about eight miles east of Livingston Manor, NY. Situated on over 300 acres of land adjoining the Catskill Forest Preserve, Camp DeBruce has been in operation since 1948. Formerly a private estate and fish hatchery, DeBruce was acquired by the DEC in the 1940s and converted into a conservation education camp for boys. In 1975, Camp DeBruce began operation as a co-educational facility.

Camp DeBruce is within walking distance of natural forests, trout streams, the Catskill Fish Hatchery and Mongaup Pond State Public Campsite. The camp week emphasizes hands-on exploration, recreation and making friends.
