Camp Moosehead


Figure 1.--Here we see a Camp Moosehead cabin group, we think in the late-1950s. This was a private camp and the cabin looks rather lurious compared to camps I was familisr with during the 1950s and 60s.

We have noted several camps named Camp Moosehead.One might think that this could be a Maine Camp. And we note a Camp Moosehead on Moosehead Lake in Maine as early as 1911. We have found a Mosehead Camp cabin group photograph, we think from the 1950s. But it could have been one of severa different camps. This was a private camp and the cabin looks rather lurious compared to camps I was familisr with during the 1950s and 60s. The boys wear CM monogram "T"-shirts and short pants with stripes. These stroped shorts were common as camp uniforms. We are not entirely sure why that was. Note that some of the boys wear leather shoes rather than sneakers.
