Potpourri

I couldn't find the posting on the YMCA camp in Medford. I found out that it is still owned by YMCA, they received a conservation easement which allowed them to keep most of the area.

The Dinkey Railroad and the remains at Crossley--was that a mill of some type?

Martha's husband had a really cool wall at their house, I'd like to do one like it. He has a map wall, and has all of the Pines topos pieced together on the wall making a huge topo map of the Pines. Cool idea, yes?

The boys camp’s name is Ockanickon. I went there many years ago. I hope this helps in the search.

I must have been thinking of the JCC camps that we discussed a while back.

Maybe. They did have serious problems-financial mismanagement by one person and embezzlemnet by another, so they thought they were going to have to sell.

Ockanickon was going to close down? That would have been awful. I spent three summers there in the camping program, as well as my 6th grade orientation, and a few Boy Scouts trips. It's a great camp, I had a wonderful time there...

The bog iron was great there! I loved Blueberry Hill.
