Camp Chic-a-Lac: THEY HAD CAMERAS THEN? MORTY'S LONG, LOST SLIDES

Blog Update

The Chic-a-Lac Blog is finally undergoing renovation, rehabilitation, revision, renewal, reorganization, revitalization and resuscitation. All of this is happening in stages. Some of the old features are gone, such as the Virtual Patio Message Board which is no longer supported, some have been updated like the Youngsville weather thingy, many of the links, like the Camp Album, in the right sidebar and in the posts themselves need relinking in order to work and some new material and features will be added. So please bear with us if some of the things just don't seem to work right. And please feel free to pass along your thoughts, ideas and even a minor criticism or two. You can always reach the blog by clicking on this button

Thanks for your understanding.

THEY HAD CAMERAS THEN?
MORTY'S LONG, LOST SLIDES

On July 11, "The Committee" met in Deedle's meticulously kept and always spotless dining room, to plan for the next reunion based in large part on the responses (23) to the Reunion Survey. Morty looks and sounds great as you can see in this candid, unposed, and casual photo taken lovingly by Betty Steuer. [click on the photos to enlarge]

Morty brought with him a moldy box of slides. Unfortunately, they were not dated. But we had them scanned, and they now reside in a Picasa web album. To see the slide show, click on the ungapotchke "View Morty's Album" button under the sample photo, and you should be taken to album page. (Don't know if you'll have to first sign in with your google account). The click on "slideshow". Hint - if you click on the F11 key, you'll see all the photos in full screen. Please, please help identify everybody (and dating the shots) by clicking on the word "comments(s) " at the end of this post. And keep watching your e-mail and this page for more details about the reunion.
Enjoy!

CARL, ROY and MORTY --
DEDICATED PAGES

Since so many of our memories and stories revolve around the three personalities who for many of us defined our experience at Camp Chic-a-Lac -- Uncle Carl, for who we thank every time we think of Chic-a-Lac, and Roy and Morty for those of us in the class of the 1960's -- we wanted to dedicate one special page of the blog to each of them where we could share those memories and stories and have a place to collect many of the links that are scattered around the Blog. To see an example, visit Morty's Page started after his death in 2010. So please share your memories, thoughts, and (hopefully) pictures of Carl, Roy and Morty. E-mail them to me or to the blog by clicking on the Chic-a-Lac e-mail button. I will post them on the special page dedicated to him (see links below).Thanks.
