Camp Lawrence in the 60's

Back in about 1966, my friend and I were going to be camp counselors at Camp Lawrence. We were in high school - we signed up with a guy in Lynn, Mass - and sure enough we caught the Camp Lawrence boat in Glendale to go out to the island. I was going to be an assistant waterfront guy, and my friend was goiing to be a tennis guy. But when we arrived a week before the kids, we had to spend that week basically fixing a gravel tennis court. I think we were not ready to face the rsponsibilities of handling the campers, and we both bailed the day before they showed up. Thought someone might have a better history at Camp Lawrence.
