=====Camp Cochegan===== Camp Cochegan, also known as Cochegan Rock and Becker Memorial Scout Reservation, was a {{convert|92|acre|m2}} camp that was donated to the Pequot Council in 1963 by the family of Nathan and Ida Becker. The reservation has also been operated by the Indian Trails Council and most recently by the Connecticut Rivers Council. [[Cochegan Rock]] is believed to be the largest freestanding boulder in New England, {{convert|54|ft|m|0}} long, {{convert|50|ft|m|0}} high and {{convert|58|ft|m|0}} wide. It weighs 10,000 tons. The property has been transferred to the [[Mohegan|Mohegan tribe]] in exchange for a $1,000,000 contribution to the council's Capital Campaign. Tribal officials consider the rock an important piece of their heritage. 350 years ago, chief Uncas, who founded the Mohegan tribe and made peace with the colonists, may have held tribal councils there.
