History of Lake Shore Park

Jim Ryan was my uncle. He, my Dad, Paul Greeley, and Vic Hatem, Joe Mahoney, John Ronan bought Chanticleer circa 1960. They sold lots and ran it for many years... Jim was the general manager and they all worked on weekends. I started cleaning cottages very young... Those were great days.

My nana, Margaret Greeley ran the Inn. She was awesome.

All of those names are so familiar to me. I spent 15 summers going up on weekends & vacations with my husband & my daughter. She wanted so badly to purchase the camp from her grandmother, but it didn't work out that way. My daughter would say that her happiest summer days were spent up there. She played with the Hatem boys & all of the other kids up there. I am going to send her the link to these posts & pictures, I know she will be happy going down memory lane.

I can't recall what led to the exodus of several families from Lake Shore Park to Chanticleer.

Were they angry at Spanos / Rugg and some of their policies for LSP?

Hi John,
Absolutely. Spanos and the Ruggs became very intrusive. I don't know if all of the families felt that way, but I know that quite a few of them were upset by the management policies.
regards,
Dick
