"Camp Lowfayl"

Linda McDonald shared this information about the history of her house in the valley.

"It was 1913 when grandpa built the cabin. The club "Woodland Valley Park Association" itself was founded in 1906. My grandfather's name was James T. MacDonald of Clifton NJ (notice I married a McDonald)! Before I inherited the house, my parents had inherited it, Janet MacDonald & John Dunnican. They had it from 1951 until 1992. Then when Dad died it became Mom's & mine. 2 years ago Mom signed her shares over to my daughter Jessie, so she is the 4th generation to be part of Camp Lowfayl. (pronounced - Loaf A While)."
