Group from 1967 -- last of the cereals?

Deb was working on this project. We posted rosters and photos in May of three of the "cereal" teams from this week of camp. Dad just sent me these scanned photos, and the only one I didn't find is the one above. I thought all were posted but maybe I mis-remembered. Deb?

I can start the ID -- 1:1 Marilyn Carter 1:2 Holly Harden 1:3 Deb Fritz, 1:5 Linda Thomas, 3:10 Kevin Hayhurst

This one was posted on June 3rd, 2007 ... It was late because I was trying to find the cereal loge for this team which I believe was STAX

1967 Last of the four groups...

In May we posted the cereal groups. I didn't find this one so here is the last of the teams from that High School Week. Deb, do you still have the roster? I can start -- 1:1 Marilyn Carter 1:2 Holly Harden 1:3 Deb Fritz. Pick it up from there please?

1959 Early Tetherball and more swimming

Frank Bush recalls, "When I introduced Tether ball to Bond Camp in 1956, it was a small ball that was hit with paddles (not the volley ball size that is used today). It was a rubber ball, about 3 inches in diameter that we put into a sack or bag, tied to the cord. Fern Hagler used to crochet the bags for us. She used nylon fishing line to make the bags. The paddles were about 8-inches in diameter with a handle. We made them out of 1/2 inch plywood. The small-ball tether ball set up only lasted a couple of years for three reasons: 1) the bags wore out too soon (and Fern got tired of making them; 2) the paddles took a beating and fell apart too easily; and 3) the paddles were responsible for too many wounds. Still, the small-ball tether was much more of a challenge and took more skill."
