Summer Trespass Warning at Camp Ethan Allen Training Site

Vermont National Guard Public Affairs

CAMP JOHNSON, Vermont  –  

As warmer summer months approach, the Vermont National Guard wants to remind the public that Camp Ethan Allen Training Site is a closed installation and all visitors must process through the main gate security checkpoint.

This is to ensure people’s safety so they do not enter active training areas.

There are numerous training areas at Camp Ethan Allen Training Site including multiple active firing ranges. Trespassing risks the safety of the trespasser and can inhibit military training from occurring.

Trespassers will be cited, and security personnel at CEATS will work with local law enforcement accordingly.

Effective October 1, 2024: To streamline communications, all F-35 and Air National Guard related inquiries should be routed directly to the 158th Fighter Wing contact page or by calling 802-660-5379. F-35 flying alerts (ie night flying schedules) will only be posted on the Vermont Air National Guard website.
