Memories Hi Jim, I remember you at Camp Columbus like it was yesterday. I was camper there from 1967-74 and a worker in 1975 (sadly the last year it was open). You worked with my brother, Bill Holt, in 1973. He was a Cub Village counselor. The pictures you posted are priceless. I recognized so...

Hi all, for any of you interested in Camp Columbus, I have set up a facebook page where you can add pictures or memories. Here is the link: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Camp-Columbus-Bamber-Lake-NJ/231302316366?v=wall. It's nice to keep the old memories alive. Chris Holt 1967-75.

If your first name is Tim or Tom I was one of the campers in your cabin. I think it was Cabin 8. I was there for four weeks in the summer of 1973. My brother Bill Holt was a counselor in the Cub Village that year.

Red Bridge Red Bridge was the original dam where the horseshoe/covered bridge dam is now. If my memory serves me right this picture was at the camp beach by the spillway that used to be part of a mill that was there.

Test photo Gary, I figured I'd try to post a resized photo that you emailed me. Here goes.

1969 Here is another photograph from 1969 in the Senior Village of Ricky (on the left) and Timmy (on the right), last names unknown. The name of the following song escapes me at the moment, maybe it was "The wild goose flight". It was always prefaced by describing a group of Indians braves...

1969 Hi again. Here is a picture from 1969. I'm not sure who is who but Raymond, Marshall and one unidentified boy are in the picture in front of cabin 5. The boy on the right is holding a turtle, I think. Take note of the fishing pole on the porch. Fishing was just one of the activities you...

Reply to message from Kevin Early Kevin, Sorry to say I don't remember you by name but I do have a photographic memory. Were you in any of the pictures that were posted? Cabins 1, 2, (Cub Village) and 3 (Senior Village) did have electricity including a single light bulb that hung from the...

Nice job on the touch up. Did you use PhotoShop? I was pressed for time and wanted to get the pictures up quick. Thanks.

My Dad is still around just turned 71 last month. Good assessment on too old for a hippie.

1969 picture The canoes were only used after the dam broke and the lake level was too low for the row boats to be used. Prior to the canoes, the rowboats were kept at the boat dock in the Cub Village and the oars were kept in a box along side of cabin 17. Life jackets had to be worn at all...

Take note of the Kerns soda bottle on the porch.

More pictures from 1969 I'll try again.

More pictures from 1969 I remember a soccer game that was played in the Senior Village after a torrential downpour. There was close to a half of a foot of water on the ground. The wooden porches in front of the cabins were floating away. If my memory serves me right, Mike Welch was one of the...
