成年残障人士夏令营买下切斯特菲尔德童军胜地 The Ashmere Project, a nonprofit organization hosting summer retreats for adults with disabilities, successfully purchased the 197-acre former Chesterfield Scout Reservation at a foreclosure auction for $1.4 million on October 3, 2025. This acquisition marks an expansion of their mission to provide inclusive recreational experiences. The property, once operated by the Boy Scouts until 2011 and later unsuccessfully used for medieval-themed events, offers ample potential for enhancements such as improved accessibility. Despite significant renovation needs, including replacing roofs and creating wheelchair-accessible pathways, Ashmere plans to open its camp next summer, leveraging Northampton’s vibrant arts community for enriching activities. The nonprofit raises about $500,000 annually without charging tuition, emphasizing inclusivity and support within the New England region. 原始文章来源：[masslive.com](https://www.masslive.com/business/2025/10/camp-for-adults-with-disabilities-buys-chesterfield-scout-reservation.html)
