Camp Lookout (Michigan)


Figure 1.--This is a photograph of one cabin group taken inside the cabin during 1943. There are nine boys and their adult councelor. The boys look to be about 10-years old. They seem a happy group. This was during World War II. Notably there is a picture of a Navy carrier plane on the wall. There does not seem to be a camp uniform.

Camp Lookout was a boys' camp located 6 miles south of Frankfort, Michigan. It would have attracted boys from the Chicago and Detroit area, two major metropolitan areas. We do not know much about the camp. It was situated on Lake Michigan and Lower Herring Lake and thus offered all kinds of water and boating actvities. We have a photograph of one cabin group taken inside the cabin during 1943. There are nine boys and their adult councelor. The boys look to be about 10-years old. They seem a happy group. This was during World War II. Notably there is a picture of a Navy carrier plane on the wall. There does not seem to be a camp uniform.
