Camp's 60's old timers

The Diamonds were the oldest in camp this family week, along with Mrs. Sefton. Pop Smith at bat, no doubt at the faculty/student game.

1999 Reunion - Music

Sandi Heston Rinderer leading song.

Kay Wiseman Dobson at the keyboards.

Dolly Black, Melissa Sefton and Donna Tackett

1966 Christian Workers Week with signatures

What a find! The names are included, in the campers' own handwriting. Including David Bush who printed his at age 7. What fun.

High School Week Group Photo, 1962

This is one of the more difficult to identify -- lots of shadows, not quite as good resolution. Mike Bush is between 1:6 and 1:7. Stu Couve is wearing a hat so he's easy on the back row. Might be Kay Wiseman, then Sandi Heston and George McCarthy to the right of the tallest guy in the back (Daryl Bishop). Joe Fehr is between the two pointy hats in the back. The two pointy hats.?.one may be Janet Cothern. One year she wore a hat like that to camp. But can't see her face. Right of the hat girls is John Griffin, then Joe Webb. Right of Stu Couve is Charlie Burns. Dan Williams two left of him. Bill Vandervoort and Gene Talbot about 5 left of Dan. What's with those pointy hats?

Some of Wilson Wiseman's photos - 1962

Janet Elam is looking on, sunglasses seated. Alice Schroeder in checks on the close side of the net and her sister Charlotte in checks on the other side. Boy in glasses is Larry Wiseley. Boy on right in white t-shirt is John Griffin

Cook on the right is Gladys Lamb.

This was a week of Music Camp in 1962. 1:8 Melissa Sefton. 2:1 Paul Sidwell; 2:2 Terry O'Dell; 2:3 Judy Ellsworth; 2:4 Janet Cothern 2:7 Mildred Hill Treat the back two rows as one. 3:4 Janie Bea Johnson; 3:6 Gayle Wakefield; 3:7 Janet Van Horn 3:9 Woody Fisher 3:11 Linda Gehrig, 3:14 Larry Cripe is the blond man on the left.

Wilson Wiseman, an elder at Greenville and father to Fred and Kay, was a photographer. At some point he gave the negatives for these photos to Frank Bush, probably to keep them with other camp photographs.

Life Recruit Week, early 1960s?

This picture is earlier, maybe 1962, than the popsicle picture. Middle girl is Sandy Schrumpf; plaid pants girl is Judy Ellsworth.

Estimated year: 1964. #2 could be Kay Wiseman, #3 Sandi Heston, #4 is Larry Hostetler, Melissa Sefton #6, #7 is Janet Durbin.

Now this one is a treasure, huh? The After-hours party was probably a week when Gil Schrieber was dean. Dan Williams and Mike Heston in the forground with Gil eating pizza between them. In the background we have Pop Smith, Stuart Couve, and to the far right JW Jordan. Boy in back with wildly patterned shirt is Larry Zumwalt and older man to his left is his dad, Dean Zumwalt. Young boy to right of Mike Heston is Gil's son, Robbie Schrieber
Next to Larry Zumwalt is Francis Grafford, Judy's mother. I think the woman in front of her is Cathy Opperman's mother, Rudy. Gilbert Schrieber was the minister at Wood River, and the Zumwalt's, Grafford's and Opperman's were all members at W.R.

1965 Campfire

Campfire was always a favorite time. Trio is: one of the Steel twins, Kay Wiseman and Melissa Sefton.

Junior boys in 1963? HS week in 1964 or 1965?

Another Junior Boys week. Row 1, kneeling, 1:4 Rick Walston 2:11 David Bush 2:13 Mike Bush 2:16 Chuck Northcutt 3:16 Steve Roodhouse 4:1 Tom Ewald 4:2 Janet Elam Ewald 4:7 Sheryl Brazle 4:9 Mary Kinney 4:10 Wanda Bowling 4:11 Dan Bowling 4:14 Melissa Sefton 4:5 Janet Durbin, Brownstown. Notice she and Melissa Sefton had matching outfits on, they were best friends!

Click on the photo for a closer look -- 1:1 Fred Wiseman 1:3 Don Doerr 1:4 Pat Heston 1:5 Bob Kelly1:9 Porter Estes 1:10 J.W. Jordan 1:12 Mike Heston 1:13 Paul Boatman 2:4 Kathy Peebles (end of row two -- the little blond head not quite visible)2:19 is Karen Bush with 2:20 Paula Bush 2:21 Francis Steele. 3:7 Jack Provines 3:11 Dan Clymer 3:12 Tim Callison 3:16 Deb Fritz 3:19 Mike Bush. Quite a jumble at the end of that row but I think the two younger kids with arms over shoulders are Robert and James Kelly.

Early 1960s

Kay Wiseman from Greenville -- not sure about the Ramsey rep, Dolly Black and Mellisa Sefton from Brownstown. Comment from Sandi Heston Rinderer: "The girl from Ramsey is my dear friend, Janet COTHERN Eckhardt. Jan and I worked together (along with my brother Mike and Dan Williams) on the '99 BCSC Reunion for campers who attended 1960 -1964. Jan now lives in Altamont, IL."

Whiteds in early days; Family camp and fun night circa 1965; trio

The Whited family hasn't changed a bit, huh?

Lois Fritz is teaching. Is that Steve Underwood, Robin Pickett, James Kelly, and on the end Joe Schmidt?

We identified Holly Harden and ??? on the left, Leroy Thompson and Scott Cain on the right helping dress Art Jordan.

Melissa Sefton and the Steele twins, but not sure which is Anita is on left and Sandy on the right. (Thanks to Sandi Heston Rinderer and Kay Wiseman Dobson.)
