“Willie” Franco, now Wilma Franco White wrote the following to me about her years at Quidnunc.
Did you know that Quid was the GS Camp for the girls in
I guess they opened it up to others at some point in time.
Here are some of the girls I went to camp with:
Nancy B Dunham, Doris Ann Heinze (Terry), Jean Patmore, and Anne Dickie all from
Another friend that I was a counselor with was Ethel Axelson.
I went to camp from 1939 to 1946. I was in Sky Blue the first two years.
After that I think it was Caravan. The next year I was in the Apprentice training and then a Counselor.
Does anyone remember Gay Ford? She was the director in 1939 and 1940
I also remember Margaret V. Lynch ("Bridgie") and Annie Sue Waldrop. Does anyone remember her nickname? They were the Co-Directors in 1941.
I have lots of pictures to go through as I just found my scrapbook from Camp. My daughter, (Carol “Daisy” White) will post them when she comes to visit.

Yes, I remember Bridgie. I have a picture of her from 1956. I don't remember who the camp director was that year, but it could have been Bridgie! Or maybe she was just visiting from Scout House. We often had people from the city come up. I guess they loved Quid as much as we did!
