Barnard announces a new campus camp with open weekends for all students and a faculty weekend. The October 15 opening features Dean Gildersleeve, a flag raising, fall barbecue, and planned dormitory and private weekends to boost student camaraderie and club participation.
Barnard College camp on Bald Mountain in Yorktown Westchester County opened with land and buildings funded by an Alumnae Association gift of 9076 dollars and additional gifts. Adirondack Log Cabin Co. awarded the building contract. Alfred Meyer and Dean Gildersleeve donated living room furnishings and fireplace items. Further gifts are hoped to complete the camp’s furnishings.
Miss Helen Erskine, president of the Associate Alumnae, drew up the Deed of Gift for a Barnard College Camp. Presented at the Alumnae Day Luncheon on February 13, 1933, the fund totaling 9328.87 was turned over to Barnard College and designated to establish the camp in perpetuity. The deed is hand printed on blue paper with blue seal wax and posted outside the Alumnae Room.
