The stone lodges at Rockbrook Camp

Middler or Lakeview Lodge at Rockbrook Camp, circa 1956

A very special feature of the landscape of Rockbrook is the three unique stone lodges.   Each age group or “line” is centered around their lodge where all sorts of activities take place.  They are a crucial part of the heart of camp and many alumna have very fond memories of the fun events that they shared with friends in their lodge.  We were looking through our archives and came across this interior lodge photograph featured in the Rockbrook Catalog around 1956.  Our current campers would probably say that the lodge looks just the same today.  They are still the center of each “line” and campers enjoy activity time in the lodges as well as morning assembly and evening program.  Here is the excerpt about the lodge from the catalog:

We would love to hear from you some of your favorite memories of time spent in your lodge.  We would also like a report on the name of the moose pictured above.  We have heard him lovingly referred to as Marvin, but imagine there are other stories out there.

Back on the 29th of January, a few RBC girls got together for a mini-reunion at Lucile Martin’s house in Atlanta, GA. Fifteen or so people were able to make it. Not pictured above: Jennie Lewis, Charlotte Page, Jenny Howard, Maggie Allgood, Mandy Horton, Jill Woodruff King, Haley and Bayless Fleming.

It’s always so great to get together and remember all the happy times we’ve shared at Rockbrook. Sometimes you can’t help but laughing at some of those old photos.

Stay tuned! We’ll let you know when the next Rockbrook Mini Reunion is planned.
