Great video. I am curious as to what year it was taken. And what mountain was that? Brought back memories of breaking arm on Marcy in 67.
Just booked a trip to do some hiking in the Adirondacks over the July 4 weekend.

I've just posted some more old film from around 1969, I believe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKkewexc49oI suspect it was played in the projector backwards - the buildings to be seem reversed from what I remember. I still have the original film but it is fragile so I'm reluctant to run it through a projector. I came across some guy on the net who converted his flat-bed scanner into a film scanner. I might be able to get better quality trying that. A winter project. At 3:00 you can see Bill Rice running to greet parents on parent's day. Does anyone recognize the guy at 3:45. At 4:53 is the guys in my cabin in 1969 - the year of the man on the moon and Woodstock. At 7:31 is some footage from a Woodsman's Frolic

Does anyone remember in 1965 we had a counselor named Yan Yong Boon Long (but call me John) from Thailand and there was a documentary made of him at camp? He was my counselor in Cabin 10 with Bob Coluni. Tennis instructor. I remember being in a sceen where we wake up and get out of bed. I was told I was quite a ham.

Jeff,
Now that you mention it, yes! I do remember Yan Yong Boon Long. But only after you mentioned it. It was a rhythm thing. Yan/Yong/Boon/Long... I don't remember the documentary, but I certainly remember Bob Coluni. I recall going to some town to see either The Longest Day or Zorba the Greek. All these splinters of memories...and all good.

Regarding Bob Coluni: years ago, when the px site was brand new, I did some digging around and actually found Bob C and called him on the phone. He was pretty old, and didn't seem to be internet saavy. I ended up sending him a postcard with the site address on it telling him to take it to the local library and ask them to show you the site. I never heard from him again, but I'd be surprised if he didn't check it out back then.

that thai tennis counselor was a classic paradox thing -- hiring counselors from all over. i think he may have been a ranked tennis player, too.
i don't remember the documentary either.
but i thought bob coluni was a basketball coach.

Bob Coluni was baseball. He either played in the big show or was a coach. Claim to fame he was in "Safe at Home" with Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle. It was a standard 'what to do on a rainy day at Paradox' movie.
Yes- he might have been a ranked tennis player not like Dave La(I can't remember his last name) who put on an exhibition for the camp with a good tennis player.
Where else did they hire counselors from - besides the Dickie Hadyle from the deep south?

Yes, Chez Guy, She Loves Me...that was all with GER. But the movie had Bob as one of the two counselors. I remember it was a black and white movie. (It's so strange the little details we remember.)

I remember David Longmeyer from 1963. He was, as I recall, ranked 13th in the East in either 'Boys' or 'amateurs'. He had a ball machine that was given a name that I can't remember. People joked that he talked to the machine. (Sit down machine!) He played tennis at LSU. Bob Coluni, aside from teaching us all the 'crow hop' (pick up a ground ball, crow hop, throw to first base) played minor league baseball in Amsterdam, NY. He had a black ball cap with the letter 'A' on it.
