    Ever since I was ten years old, Camp Lowden has been my absolute favorite place. From swimming in the pool to shooting guns to great campfires - what a great place for boys (and now girls as well) to be! I could not wait to get there each summer, and the saddest day of the year was the day we had to go home. But before I passed through the gate at the end of each summer, I had already decided which merit badges I would take the following summer.

    For those who have never experienced Camp Lowden, it is somewhat difficult to describe just how great it is. The Living Legends of Camp Lowden publication is an attempt to do so, and it is my sincere hope that the Spirit of Camp Lowden is reflected throughout those pages as well as this Web site.

    As long as an entity continues to exist, its history is never complete. Often the simple start of a history sparks much more from the recall of many. It is trusted that this effort will spark such recall and that, in the months and years to come, more will be added to The Living Legends of Camp Lowden.

    To contact me regarding Camp Lowden staff alumni, or if you have any information, corrections, stories, memories, etc., that you would like to share, please contact me.
