Plant and Wildlife
The acreage surrounding Moon Shadow Lodge is home to several protected
species of plant life of the quaking bogs which are a unique Southern
Adirondack geographic feature. Walking, snowshoeing and skiing
trails are cut through the gently rolling forested land to provide
easy viewing of the active beaver lodge, deer bedding areas, and
black bear dens. Mink, raccoons, wild turkey, ptarmigan, pileated
woodpeckers, and great blue heron are also local residents. Views
from surrounding mountain peaks are spectacular for photography
and gaining an appreciation for the vast surrounding wilderness.

Your guests can have uninterrupted use of the entire facility
and walking, snowshoeing trails, pond and stream. Use the Lodge
as a jump off point for hiking the thousands of acres of the Adirondack

Facilitation Center
Moon Shadow Lodge hosts the Facilitation Center, an internationally
recognized management training and leadership development consulting
firm. Our facilitation processes work with small or large groups
and are customized to meet your needs. Both facilitation training
and our workshops are available on or off site.
Workshops
Using best practices from leadership development, teambuilding,
and strength-based approaches, the Facilitation Center offers
education and training for at risk youth, their families and service
providers. Available on request, the 30 hour “FLAME”
program can be offered to groups or individuals. One-on-one coaching
is also available on an hourly rate.
Facilitation Training
Managing dialogue and group processes can be a challenging task
in our diverse and complex work environments. Facilitation skills
provide the means by which leaders and managers can produce high
performance results from teams and decision groups. This 3 level
certification series is designed specifically for mid to upper
management and management consultants.
Strategic Planning
Manage time and resources towards meeting your outcomes. Strategic
planning workshops offered by the Facilitation Center provide
a proven process for effective strategic planning that accelerates
outcomes achievement. The process focuses on structured dialogue,
inclusion, consensus-building and decision-making which are useful
for creating visions, performance objectives or outcomes, policy
formulation, and action planning.
Custom Designs
An international consulting firm, the Facilitation Center custom
designs all of its in-house training programs, workshops, and
process facilitations to meet the specific needs in outcomes,
timeframes, scheduling challenges, and unique characteristics
of each organization. Our professionals are committed to meeting
the needs of the organization and individuals rather than marketing
a specified approach. In business since 1993, we have served clients
at the local, state, regional, national, and international levels;
worked with Fortune 100 companies and executives; heads of state
and leaders in all stages of development. Our skills include conflict
resolution, teambuilding, dialogue management, systems thinking,
and consensus decision-making.

An
Adirondack Retreat
For Overnight Guests and Exclusive Events
Available by Reservation Only
410 Roaring Branch Road
Stony Creek, NY 12878

The Lodge was originally
a barn constructed circa 1868. In the early 1900’s it was
moved to its present location and remodeled into a private home.
There is a  town-maintained
Civil War era family cemetery with 2 marked and 5 unmarked gravesites
on the property.
The roughly 37 acre property was purchased in 2003 and completely
renovated to serve as a “micro” conference center
to house both the Facilitation Center and to accommodate day use
and overnight retreat guests. The Lodge features a central use
wood stove, reading room, community gathering area and small group
meeting space. Great effort was taken in remodeling to retain
the original post and beam structure and an Adirondack Great Camp
feel.
