All in all, it was a wonderful year for the boys The Robins took a first in Nature and Pioneering, of the Robins, a year for growing and learning, and showed their skills in our overnight with Big Jim. and a year to look forward to the 1968 season. BUNK 7 - CHOCTAW The Bunk 7 campers this season were all second year veterans. The counselors, although experi- enced, were new to Ken-Mont. The boys taught us quickly. . . Although the Robins have done many things as a division such as the overnight, going for pizza after sweeping an inter-camp series, Sharon Playhouse and bowling, the highlight of the season for Bunk 7 was the cook out on Blueberry Island. After the food was gone they explored Spectacle Lake in the new boat. They discovered many inter- esting natural wonders, among them finding a rare fresh water sponge. Bunk 7 can claim four A team players for the inter-camp games, three swim team members and five in-ter-camp newcomb players. It also claims one of the high ranking positions for 'chigh bunkv in inspection for the lower and upper camps. As a whole it was a great season with a great bunk. As counselors and campers depart with sore muscles and sore throats for their winter homes, peace comes to Ken-Mont once more. ALAN FRANK was the counselor's friend and one of the Robins all around men. He' did every- thing equally well, he played outfield for the Mets, and advanced from crib swimmer to sail docki' swimmer all in one season. One of Alan's favorite indoor activities was Indian Lore where he made an authentic Indian peace pipe, which incidently didn't bring one bit of peace to our bunk. DANNY COHEN, better known as '4Fang at Ken-Mont, held the bunk record for staying in bed the longest and making counselors say get up the most times. DANNY'S favorite sports were basket- ball, capture the flag, and baseball. He did well in all. DANNY was the second baseman for the Robins. ED HERMAN was the bunk card shark Cbaseball Cards that isb. He played second base for the Spades and was one of the few Robins to qualify at the Rifle Range. ED also was on the swim team. I mznr.. - man. -'.. -....mn.-...:----- .::1---- amz.. :-..... --...

Brad was also strong' at waterfront activities, being one of the first boys to pass his deep water test. NEIL SKOLNIK was one of the more versatile boys in the bunk. He was a good athlete, participat- ing eagerly in softball and capture the flag. Aside from his athletic abilities, he was interested in Arts and Crafts and Nature. His greatest interest, how- ever, was in radio. Neal was also the knock-hockey champion of Bunk Six. ERIC CBaby Cakesj SILVERMAN, besides being one of the most popular boys, was also one of the best athletes in the group and the Sparrows, Boy of the Year. He was one of the choice few to play hardball with the older boys, while he captained the league leading Tigers in the Minor League. Eric, occasionally called the '4Mighty Midget , was also a good skier. ALAN HARMON was the boy with his own toy store in the bunk. Although he had many things to keep him busy, he still participated eagerly in Arts and Crafts and Indian Lore where he made still more interesting items to make his cubbie shelves more attractive. Alan enjoyed playing Cap- ture the Flag and played third base for the Lions in the Minor League. Also one should not overlook his ability in skiing. All boys new to camping, we proved long before season's end we deserved the accolade, real Ken- Mont Campers! We are looking forward to re- newing our comradeship in 1968 as Robins. ROBINS From the first overnight trip of the 1967 sum- mer, to the final exciting days of Color War, the the Robin Division showed outstanding spirit in real Ken-Mont tradition. Thirty-six young men and eight wonderful weeks combined to give the ,67 Robins a summer they will long remember. Active in all phases of camp life, the Robins were tops at Arts 8c Crafts, Indian Lore and as disc jockeys for KAMP. We numbered half a dozen lake swimmers, and numerous sail dock swimmers as well. Our inter-camp team took on all comers and won all their games! Robins were among the U...-.... 4-..,.,... . . ......- . ,vga H e .- - -,...v.i.., ..-.i.. if ---A -.- -..,- -- ..

Bottom: scorr WEBER, Bossv PRAVDER, JoHN KATZ, JoN SCHOTTLAND, LENNY RUSSELL, sruART Hmscn-J, JACK sc:-JULMA-N. MIKE LAZERWITZ, the brains of the bunk, was one of our outstanding campers. Although he did well in everything, MIKE's favorites were ten- nis and rifiery. He held the lower camp record for high score in riflery. He also played third base for the Mets. ION LIEBMAN, the boy with a thousand nick- names, was a good little ball player. He made the A team as catcher for inter-camp games and was on the Aceis starting line up. Robin Hood of the Robin division, JON'S aim won him a free canteen from the archery instructor. RICHARD WOOD, 'the bunk's beam swinger de- lighted us all season with his amazing vocabulary. One of the campis better athletes, RICH excelled in everything he tried. Space does not permit the listing of all his accomplishments this season but two of the more outstanding ones were skiing slalom and making the two mile swim. MARK WEISS, bunk vocalist and orator added spark and life to our bunk this season and our meals in the dining room. MARK has played left field for the Cubs and was also a sail dock swimmer. MIKE ROSEN, 'the bunkis big mann, used his size to great advantage this season. One of the campis better athletes, itis impossible to list all his accomplishments in such a short space. In every- thing he did MIKE showed good sportsmanship and fair play. MARC WARNER, the bunk clown , kept us smiling this entire season. Donit let the title fool you though he's also the bunk spelling champion. MARK played left field for the Aces and enjoys swimming, radio and nature. Even though ourlbunk had so many different interests, we pulled as one. Our friendships will be enduring. BUNK 8 - COMANCHE The several characters from the Comanche tribe of the Robin Division were rugged individuals in their likes and dislikes. All of us were new to Ken-Mont, and as first year campers, we started from scratch. Before long we made our presence felt in all activities. Although we set no new rec- ords, watch our smoke next year! There are many bright moments from this summer to look back on .... J ON KATZ was an all-around active guy, but he did especially well in water sports, and passed the deep water and sail dock swimming tests.
