Ghost Town Summer in Lakeview With Cerveny Couple
Elise Emery profiles George and Mildred Cerveny of Long Beach State College as they retreat each June to Lakeview, a fading northern Idaho ghost town. The Cervenys split time between campus duties and summer life among 30 families, with fishing, baking, jam making, and Mildred’s Kidney Bean Salad. The piece contrasts Lakeview’s isolation and simple amenities with LBSC life, noting past and present conditions, a one-room school, limited services, and the couple’s long connection to the area.
