JARED GOLDWATER was one of the most improved campers in our group. He was a good swimmer and a valuable player in almost all sports at camp. He did all things with a smile. JARED especially liked kickball and softball. PETER NEWMAN is without a doubt the most improved camper in Bunk l. PETE, although the youngest Ken-Mont camper, became the fourth member to pass his intermediate swimming test. He was also a good athlete and did especially well in soccer, softball, and kickball. He- was always anxious to join in any activity. IRA SHERMAN was another camper who im- proved greatly over the summer. He became a good swimmer and also enjoyed softball, and kick- ball, as well as arts and crafts. I BUNK 2 FRANK LAUREDA, a very athletic boy, par- ticipated in many sports. He especially liked kick- ball and soccer. Even though a Bluejay, FRANK was very strong and excellent competition for many a Sparrow. MIKE PRELL was our swimming star. Right from the beginning of the season, MIKE was a dare-devil in the water. He enjoyed diving and all kinds of water tricks. He was also an enthusiastic participant in land sports. A PAUL FELDAN was a fine all around camper. He no-t only participated in both land and water sports, but also joined in non-athletic events as well. Paul played soccer, kickball, baseball and new- comb with as much enthusiasm as he participated in Arts and Crafts, Indian Lore, and Nature. MANNIE PEARLMAN, nicknamed Mayo- naisev, was spread evenly all over the camp. MANNIE was a good athlete and participated in all sports. He enjoyed Arts and Crafts, Indian Lore and Nature as well. ERIC METZENDORF enjoyed swimming and playing soccer. Eric was a very well liked boy and added much fun to the games he participated in. WAYNE RUBIN made the greatest strides in swimming, more so than anyone else in bunk 42. By the end of the summer WAYNE was able to swim in the deep water unhesitantly.

All of these boys participated in sports of all kinds in- cluding soccer, basketball, kickball, capture-the-Hag, softball and swimming. Swimming of course proved to be the favorite! Five boys became intermediate swimmers: MIKE PRELL, JOHN DOPPELT, PAUL FELDAN, PETE NEWMAN, and ERIC METZENDORF. On several occasions these eleven cooperative boys played the Sparrow Division, boys a full year older than they were, and put up a good solid team, so good, in fact, that they were able to beat the Sparrows in a game of Newcomb. Yea, Bluejays! ! ! BUNK 1 All new to camping, and the first time away from home for most of them, the boys of Bunk l were amazing in their rapid adjustment to camp life. DAVID COHEN became one of the best liked campers this year, because of his willingness to help and his friendly personality. DAVE also was 21 major contributor to any sport or activity. He especially enjoyed kickball and arts and crafts. JOHNNY DOPPELT was one of the first Blue- jays to pass his intermediate swimming test. He is an excellent player in any sport and excells in kickball, soccer, and softball. JONNY often pro- vided the necessary spark for his teammates to go on to victory. , , ,,,, W-, .- u--5.5-7 V - Y-.....- --f----S -v--- me-:rw --YA Vi- ---- ....-V--V ... m....m.-..f-.-..,.......n....ii -'-an - -: '- - -.- - . .:::.:: :-.3-3,-333: Lq.jj.:g 5-1-7 7Q1I1 .T' rg- jf..-ffn:-'gr r:::':f :- r - --.-.,...:.'::. . .:-- 3:1 F .,7F-'.'..'T1:w:- ' -

SPARROW SPOUTINGS The 1967 camp season marked the first sleep- aw-ay camping experience for most of the 26 boys in the Sparrow Division. However, it did not take long for the old and the new campers to combine and form the closest as well as the most exciting group at Ken-Mont. It would be futile to pick one activity the boys enjoyed most because they participated in and en- joyed them all. Arts 8c Crafts, Indian Lore and Radio were very popular. The boys became so good at building model airplanes and ships at Arts 81 Crafts, that they were almost given a government contract. By summer's end the Sparrows knew as much about Indian Lore as did the Indians. Broad- casting over KAMP caught the fancy of many of our men. Other favorites were capture the flag, softball, kickball, basketball, soccer, tennis, boxing, nature, swimming and ski and sail. The Sparrows are proud of the fact that every boy learned to swim. Most became intermediates. Some achieved advanced status. Eleven boys were able to pass the sail dock test and six of the eleven passed the two mile lake swim. As well as improving their swimming, most of the boys learned to ski by themselves. Twenty Sparrows received beginner patches. The Sparrows will also remember their overnight hike at Mohawk State P-ark which they enjoyed immensely. The boys slept in tents, ate food cooked on a campfire, played army, and heard a story about The Mummy . During the day, Jack took the campers on 2 hikes, one to the bog and one to the ranger tower. Another highlight was the fishing trips to the lake where the boys fished out of rowboats with their own homemade fishing poles and used live worms as bait. The boys caught 53 fish which were cooked and eaten at a fish fry. The Sparrows also excelled on the ballfield. The Mino-r League had a very successful season with the Tigers finishing on top. Five boys were selected to play hardball on an American League team as well as playing in the Minor League. Bunk games also held an important place in the Sparrows group of activities. A hard-fought Nok- Hockey Tournament produced a champion from each bunk and a group champion. The 26 members of the Sparrows will undoubt- edly look back on the summer of 1967 as one of ng-,--...,::, W-Tl.-. q,uT:y::3-. 2:-leg-a:.........
