Resources in the early 90's provided alumni staff and volunteers an opportunity to do extensive research of the 60's and 70's eras.  Although many early 1960's records appear to be destroyed or missing along with those from the 50's, records from the mid 60's into the 70's were more plentiful, and we have located hundreds of alumni from the 60's and 70's.

This photo is taken in July 1961 at Camp Adventure.  During the first couple of years at Camp, out-buildings consisted of a couple of skid shacks donated by Imperial Oil, augmented by army tents.

In 1960 the Rotary Club donated funds to build the original lodge which was constructed by volunteers on weekends.
