Camp Woodland Reunion

I got a message last week from WCA member Bill Horne (a former Camp Woodland camper). The alumni are planning a couple of events this summer that celebrate the former camp. Here are the details that Bill has provided. 

Camp Woodland is having an official and well-planned reunion this summer. On July 14 we gather at SUNY Albany where the camp’s files, documents,  audio recordings and photos are archived. On July 15 we will be in Phoenicia.

I believe both days are open to anyone. Below is the web address for Albany event. The Phoenicia event will be held at the Parish Hall in Phoenicia. Lots of folk singing.

A Legendary and Historical Event

Camp Woodland was a summer camp in Phoenicia, N.Y. from 1939-1962. Interracial and progressive, it helped to preserve much of the folklore of the Catskills.

Alumni Sue Rosenberg, Pat Gordon Lamanna, Karl and Greg Finger, and (possibly) Eric Weissberg will give a Camp Woodland Multi-Media Presentation through photos, stories and songs.

(After-Party and Music Jam at Cara's House)
