Camp Lawrence in the 60's

...I did walk around the entire camp every fall after all the campers were gone. My family has a place on West Bear and it was a good walk over to Lawrence. Very cool place. I can understand why you all enjoyed it so much.

I've also been to Camp Nakomis (on more than one occasion). We'd anchor off shore, swim in, and then spy on the girls in their cabins. I was only 12 or 13 at the time. The older kids I was with always told me that if we were caught, the camp counselors would make us walk through their huge cess pool barefoot.

We never got caught (chased away every time though) and that memory of Nakomis pops up every now and then, adding to the thousands of memories that Winni has provided for over 35 years.
