Subject: Thoughts from a Pioneer

When my wife, Evelyn (Neu) received that first email from Alan Stamm sometime in January, we both naturally were 1. amazed that she was found and 2. amazed how this new adventure began to mushroom. Then as the weeks and months passed,I became as excited as Evey that the reunion was drawing near, which was somewhat odd since I had more vivid memories of the years starting around 1944 when I was at Sterns Kindergarten.

Then, a few weeks before the reunion, Alan contacted me to inquire if I was the Irving Weiler whose name appeared on that first Camp Roster of 1948 (the year the camp opened). Indeed, I was.

For one who did not have vivid memories of my one summer at SSC, the memories of that great weekend in late June will always be special for both Evey and myself.

...and to cap off those memories, I now gaze at Elaine Ravitch's all camp picture of that first year. There I am, just to the left (at eye level) of Lilo. The proof of the pudding! It doesn't get more vivid than that.
