This was a time of building. The center of the old Sugar House was renovated with windows, doors and a floor, initiating what would become the Den, named for the home of the Pack in the Jungle Book. An outdoor Dining Room was built on the west side of the Jungle House. With few trees, the boys and staff could clearly see Bear Mountain, the Sugarloafs and beyond. Land was levelled for the Upper Tennis Court. The Campfire Circle was created and became an enduring feature of camp life. A large barn and a poultry house were built. Mrs. Holt’s son Ford became Assistant Director, under whom the boys and staff walked eight miles to Plymouth for haircuts and ice cream, and then walked back! The only vehicle at the time was a horse-drawn cart.
