Elvis Night, Jean Brown

Sharbot Lake Boys Camp, Terry Maynard

Elvis Night

Dear editor and folks of the area - I want to thank the volunteers of Sharbot Lake High School for the fantastic evening with Elvis tribute artist Stephen Goodberry in their recent benefit to aid the yearbook and the Cancer Society.  What a marvelous evening and superb talent.  Thanks.

Jean Brown

Sharbot Lake Boys Camp

I’m looking for historical information about the Sharbot Lake Boys Camp, which operated on Sharbot Lake up to the early 1960s. The last time I was at Sharbot Lake was in 1959 when I attended my first summer camp. That experience contributed greatly towards my passion of taking teens into the wilderness.  I devoted a good portion of my career as a youth worker and wilderness guide for at-risk teens. I’ll be in the Sharbot Lake area today and tomorrow, Nov. 10 and 11 and would love to canoe in the area of the camp. Anyone who has information is welcome to email me, or drop by the Sharbot Lake Country Inn around 6pm today.

Terry Maynard
