Years the camp existed: 1964-1969. Also, I'm looking for the songwriter of a song I learned there entitled "That's My Song" -- familiar to anyone? Thanks much! |

You may not find your old camper friends, but you'll sure find a lot of interest in the old camp songs, especially when Joe Offer gets back from visiting his sister in Newtown. He was supposed to make it to NOMAD, too, where I would have introduced you to him, but he wrote down the wrong date in his little black book. Sandy |

I never went to camp myself and I'm a total cyber-klutz, but some of you web-surfing experts can probably help her. Hop it now! Sandy |

Turns out that -- I hope (I ordered the cd) the song "That's My Song" is on a Carolyn Hester double cd, along with lots of other beloved 60s folk songs -- I've been looking for a recording of it for a long time -- and I'm looking forward to mudcatting! |
