Another trip was to a series of beaver dams which have been in existence for many years. The dams are so strong, said Mrs. Purnell, that the recent floods hardly damaged them.
The third week of camp was geared toward slightly older and experienced campers. Mrs. Purnell said that many of the campers in this group want to be counsellors someday.
They split into three groups: Peter Kramer Jr.’s class studied reptiles and amphibians; Lyt Wood’s class learned about mountain ecology; and Robin Purnell’s class learned to draw wildlife and plants.
Peter Kramer Jr. (woodworker Peter Kramer’s son) has a master’s degree in herpetology. He taught the kids how to find and catch salamanders, and they also enjoyed learning the Latin names of what they caught.
Many salamanders were caught during the week: red, dusky, slimy, spotted and seal salamanders. Van Carney caught the smallest one which was less than an inch long. They also found newts.
