Girl Scout Camps page: I don't know if you are interested in
a basic "day camp" that operated in Raritan, NJ [name of the township
changed to Edison in 1954]."Knolltop" was the name of the camp, located in
Roosevelt Park.
There was a main cabin with sleeping loft and they did have "overnights"
there. Girl Scouts earned badges while attending. There were wood seated
latrines [each group had their turn at latrine duty] and even though there
was electricity, there was an old "ice box" in the cabin and ice blocks were
delivered.
I attended 1954, 55, 56 and eventually became a counselor. - I remember
songs around the flagpole, taps and learning how to handle and fold the
American flag. We had metal craft, and pottery/ceramics and lanyard making,
etc. And I fondly remember the large juice can "buddy burners" and frying
eggs and making pancakes on them after an overnight and, of course, s'mores!
The camp was probably in operation during the 50's, 60's and 70's. Maybe
longer. I live in CA now and don't know for sure, but I think the camp is no
longer in operation. Jeanne Romano
