Directions to Camp Clark from the Sagamore Bridge.

If you are a typical camper you probably never drove yourself to Camp Clark. If you became a Counselor you probably were old enough to have a drivers license. But for those who never drove or who's memory has failed "slightly" with age here are direction to the camp.

And here is a map with the step by step turn by turn from the Sagamore Bridge.

Camp Clark 1948. Thanks to Joseph Larson for these great additions to Camp Clark history.

CLICK each photo for a LARGER version.

Co-Wah Craft Shop and Lodge. 1st. floor is the craft shop. 2nd floor is lodge (14 campers).

Infirmary and nurse's quarters.
Added info from Joseph Larson

The Infirmary and nurses quarters were both in the building in the picture.
As I recall sick campers entered the right hand door and the door on the far
left was a separate entrance to the nurse's room(s). The Infirmary was at
the far end of the Senior section and near the start of the trail up to
Brownbread.

Gordon Cabin.

Whitehurst cabin.

Uncle Bob's cabin.

Northfield. From the Comments:

That photo labeled Northfield is a huge field, about the size of two football fields. It is flat and not rocky at all. (I never remember any field that wasn't rocky)
It is located up behind where Ike Babbit used to be. They must have just bulldozed out all the trees and leveled the whole thing. It has a climbing wall and a rope course and looked to be set up for soccer when I was there.

Three recent views of Camp Clark (now Camp Lyndon)


Google Earth view of Lawrence Pond. Looks kind of like the shadow of a bird or a bat. With that in mind. The camp is in the area of the "head". The small square is the swimming dock.


The junior section from the boat house. Left to right the cabins were:Kiwanis, Rotary, Craigleigh and Co-Wah (above the arts and craft shop). Thanks to Dan Murphy



The top of Brownbread hill. Looking across the lake. The camp bay is to my right side in this picture. The back bay is to my left. I'm standing on the crest of the hill that is now mostly over grown. I remember a set of log steps that formed an amphitheater down the hill toward the back bay.
None of that appears to be there now it is all over grown.
