Tuesday, June 17 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am EDT
How did young Ridgefielders spend those endless summer days between “School’s out!” and “Back to School”?
Summer camps were part of the picture for many, whether it was at the (then) Boy’s Club, or the Community Center, or the Girl Scouts’ Camp Catoonah. There were private camps as well, like Rabbit Hole Farm. More recently, Parks & Recreation also offered day camps. There were even camps for adults.
The Ridgefield History Club will devote its June 17 meeting to summer camps, with a discussion led by Jack Sanders; the club meets at the Ridgefield Historical Society’s headquarters, the Scott House, at 4 Sunset Lane.
History Club is an informal history discussion at which participants are invited to share their insights and ask questions. If you have photos or artifacts, please bring those to share. The free one-hour meeting will begin at 10 a.m.
Everyone is welcome. Space is limited and we ask that people sign up in advance.
