Photos of the bridge were taken on Dover Day to help bring back memories of the staff visits to the bridge.

The Pine Hollow cheer and two Berkshire Men cheer variations have already been posted on the Blog. As Blog Administrator, I have added (as comments) cheers for the Iroquois, Schaghticokes and Westward Ho, but I’m not sure that I have all the words right. Also, I cannot remember the Ah Widerness cheer (except that it ends with Wilderness, Wilderness, Wahoo).
If you remember any part of this cheer, or can correct the other small camp cheers, add a comment with your version.
