Camp Penick is a camp for the girls of the diocese. The boys have had their camp for two or three years and have had a grand time, and now it is time for the girls to have theirs. Camp Penick? Doesn’t it sound interesting and intriguing? Well it is. Mrs. Challen, the new Executive Secretary of the young people is to be the director. Bishop Penick is to be the Chaplain, and you know that’s nice. It is to be for girls between the ages of fourteen and twenty-one. Every Parish in the diocese is to have the privilege of sending two delegates to Camp Penick, and as the capacity of the Camp is limited you had better get your registration fee and application blanks in early… . Where is it? Why at Little Switzerland of course, and girls, I wish you could see it. Rows of tents sitting up right on top of the mountain, looking off over beautiful valleys. A tiny rock altar at which we may worship and have our communions, the most attractive Conference Room you ever sat in, and a mess hall that will hold us all, and all the “eats” we can consume, and also where we can have classes and stunts if it should rain. Camp Penick will be held from June 23rd to July 3rd, and will only cost $18.00; $2.00 registration fee and $16.00 board.
