A Very Special PlaceBeech Haven Camp for Girls
|
|||||||
A history of a private girls' camp that is no more, this semi-hard cover
coffee table-size book is alive with pictures, names and memories. It
tells how the camp came into being, who ran it for its 15 happy years of
existence, and why it ceased to be.This book is lovingly dedicated to the memory of the camp director, Annie Glenn Brown McCoy, who died in 1990 at the age of 95 in Meridian, Mississippi. The foreward is written by Frankie Brown McClure of Huntsville, Alabama, who was first a camper, then a counselor for all the years the camp was in operation. The afterword is written by Herbert "Bud" Hahn, a retired University of South Carolina professor, who bought the old camp site and with his wife, Sylvia, operates it as Irmolot Lodge, where guests may breathe the same mountain air, view the same vistas and walk the same paths that hundreds of Beech Haven girls did so many summers ago. In between the foreward and the afterword, voices of former campers tell the way it once was and why those "summers were the happiest times of my life." |
