From my grandparents' home movies. Camp Quinibeck, a girls camp on Lake Fairlee, VT. We see cabin, big house, more cabins, girls in uniforms, "Quinibeck" sign, dock, girls going to dining hall?.
Just today I saw some girl scout uniforms like the one's they wear. Is this a girl scout camp or were these uniforms common. (Or are there two camp scenes here?)
i went canoing by there this summer, and boy did they make a lot of noise.

Camp Quinibeck was founded in 1911. My mother went there in the 30's; i went in the 50's. It was always a private camp for girls, no connection to the girl scouts. The Junior Camp was on the lake; the senior camp on the hill. There is a Quinibeck website on the web; catalogs often appear on ebay; articles in the archives of Vermont Magazine. This video looks like a visit to see the camp or a first day for the girls in the dresses. What was your grandparents connection to the camp? Curiously,Mary
