Camp founder "Uncle" Frank Gray would spend summers living in the Old Guard cabin (Sleepy Hollow), but as his health worsened, he was unable to climb up the hill. So the original Library was built for him in 1922.
Today, the Library will be used for special events and programming as announced here
on our web site.
The Library porch beckoned visitors, as Uncle once said, to "come and sit awhile".
The Library faces Lake Vreeland which mirrors the sky and the hills
surrounding camp. As the original library building deteriorated, plans were put together
to recreate the building. View the reconstruction
pictures.

The newly reconstructed building has been renamed as the John C. Whitehead Library in honor of a great friend of camp. |  |

Blake Memorial camp museum, honoring one of the people responsible for
building our camp. The museum will be used to display the vast quantity
of historic material contained in the camp archives.
