I also recognized some folks like Paul "Strawberry" Gieger (?spelling) who was my JC in cabin 11 forest village, also Chino Wilson who had been a CIT in forest village in 1986 and a counselor in Pokey/Totem in 1987. I also reconized Skip Defoe who worked that summer with the adventure staff and did alot of driving. Standing next to me is Frank Degraw who was VC of forest first half of the summer and woodwise the second half. The Baris-Barnes-Horne grouping if I remember correctly Elleen was the VC of Windsong and Liz was the VC of Tacoma. In 1986 Barb was HIrd director, Liz was a Tacoma counselor, and Elleen was a couselor in Cabin 16 susky village.

1987 staff photo
Chris Mills (see the previous post) also sent me a photo of the 1987 summer staff. (Chris thought it was the '86 photo but I am persuaded by subsequent correspondence from Eric Blum that is' from '87.) It strikes me that this can't be the entire staff, although it does have the look of an official shot. Standing at far left is Barb Bartis, who succeeded me as Hird director. Next to her is Eileen Barnes and next to Eileen is Liz Horne. In the middle of those standing--with the dark-framed horn-rimmed glasses--is Eric Blum. Eric still comes to camp for an entire month in a role he calls "camp schlep." He uses up his entire vacation to do this, and the pay he receives he donates to FV. Seated ninth from the right is Abby Kantrowitz, and to Abby's right is Lillian Rountree and to Lillian's right is Liz Cruickshank. The seventh person standing from the right is Rick Wormeli (Wawayanda Director), an award-winning teacher from Virginia. Standing fourth from right is Johnny Bostick, second from right is David Sunshine and standing at far right is Terry Murray (Director of Camping). Eric Blum adds:
