Yes it was a large building on the lake. During the summer in the late 1940's I used to go dancing there most every Saturday night - sometimes a band and sometimes to the juke box. There was a bowling alley on the ground floor with duck pins and candle pins. First and only time I've seen candle pins, and was almost impossible to get a strike. They got large crowds of young folks - the only jumpin' spot in town.

Alan T, thanks so much for replying to this thread! I would love to hear anything else you have to say or remember about the lake and the area! Please hang around and respond to pertinent posts on the forum. You would be a treasure trove of memories which I and many would appreciate!!

Dan
