Each camp wrote up a report of activities which was used to inform those who had supported a particular camp and to encourage future donors. Few of these reports have survived, perhaps because they were written before the digital age and reproduced by banda machine. One that did survive is copied in the Camps section of the website. If there are any other surviving reports it would be good to post them as well.
The website was set up about 3 years ago and with some welcome exceptions has covered the camps in the 1960’s and early 70’s. Many of the volunteers are now in their 70’s and too many have already passed on. We have, therefore, decided to draw a line under the memories, We have decided to celebrate the success of the website in two ways:
On Thursday 17th October 2019 we will hold our final reunion at Jesus College at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. It will take the form of a totally informal tea party. More details of this will be announced here early next year.
The second element of the celebration will be the conversion of the website to print. It is intended that the ensuing book will include everything on the site as at the end of March 2019, so if you have any material especially pictures, please let us have it by the due date and we will include it in the book.
