Goldstock is held at Camp Weequahic, a children's camp located in Lakewood, PA which is about 40 miles northeast of Scranton. Weequahic is in a rural area, located on a lake; you will find sand, dog hair, and foot/paw prints most everywhere, and although the bunks are modern buildings with bathrooms, showers, and hot and cold water, it is still a camp with camp beds and predominantly group living. This is a weekend to celebrate our dogs, visit with old friends, welcome new friends, and most importantly, support rescue.

Everyone you see working to make this event a success is a volunteer; please be patient with us and when you can, offer to help. One of the easiest ways to meet new people, is to volunteer anywhere and everywhere. Goldstock brings together a diverse group of people sharing a common interest in our dogs and in rescue; please be respectful of each other and our often differing opinions.
