Is Camp Still
Important for the Kids
of the 21st Century?
If you are a camp alum, then you are well aware of the good
that camp can bring into a child’s life. You remember how
much you looked forward to those phenomenal summers
on the shores of Higgins Lake. But what about the camper
of today? Is a camp experience still relevant? The answer
is yes, more than ever. Camp provides the basics for social,
emotional, and spiritual well-being just as food, clothing, and
shelter meet the needs of physical well-being. It is not unusual
to attend a memorial service for a camp alum and hear stories
about how camp helped to shape who that person eventually
became. But today’s youth need leadership and interpersonal
skills as they cope with the demands and challenges presented
by a world where the character qualities of cooperation, love,
joy, kindness, thoughtfulness, patience, and peace are in
short supply. Camp provides an environment in which these
qualities are nurtured and cultivated in preparing our leaders
for the time when they will be the ones making decisions and
solving world situations.

Three Property
Enhancements
One significant upgrade will greet everyone
upon entering the camp. New signs have
replaced what was removed by the local
snowplow several years ago. A local
landscaper and a sign artist cooperated in
creating an attractive welcome entry that
significantly improves and marks the place
where our guests first encounter camp.
Another improvement is a remodeling of Walden Lodge,
originally the shower house. That site has served as
staff men’s housing for the past several summers but
now is being remodeled for use as lodging for a family
or a few volunteers. The need for housing that enables
social distancing as well as provides lodging for anyone
volunteering as a resource person has become increasingly
evident.
The third property matter deals with a situation which has constantly jeopardized the operation of the
camp in times of inclement weather. It is not uncommon for severe storms to cause power outages.
Usually these are for short periods of time that can be compensated for with use of a small portable
generator and judicious use of refrigeration equipment and water sources such as the flushing of toilets.
However, if an outage were to last longer than approximately a half day, then other considerations would
need to be made such as the closing of camp and sending campers home. A recommended solution is a
much larger generator that would automatically activate during an outage and supply power to the camp
insuring that refrigeration is kept functioning along with the greenies and electrical applications.

Bikes Now at Camp Westminster
With all there is to do at Camp Westminster,
what else could possibly be added? Well, how
about bicycles? This summer bikes will be
available to ride both on the property and on
special bike trails. The addition of this high
adventure option made sense since a bike trail
now runs in front of the camp from the Dairy
Queen to West Higgins Lake Drive. This section COVID-19
is part of the Iron Belle Trail. Other biking Protocols
opportunities are available in nearby Grayling all
the way out to Hartwick Pines State Park. Proper All protocols
safety procedures and equipment will be utilized recommended by the
while showing courtesy to other riders. CDC and the state of

Carolyn Reid Bennett
(06/01/1944 – 09/09/2020)
Carolyn Reid Bennett was always an active
supporter and encourager of Camp Westminster.
She grew up attending the camp each summer
developing some of her best lifelong friends from Counselor Sally Stockwell and her campers
her camp acquaintances. Carolyn remained close
especially to her Wildwood Class of 1960 which Sally Stockwell Frazier
still today meets at least annually keeping up their (09/02/1937) – 11/23/2020)
friendships and care for each other. Carolyn’s Sally Stockwell Frazier was a proud camper
contagious warm smile will be sorely missed since and camp counselor at Camp Westminster on
it was such an obvious indicator of her thoughtful, Higgins Lake for most of her childhood years,
kind, and caring personality. Carolyn’s sister is eventually serving as assistant director. She was
Nancy Reid DeHority who lives in Livonia. As with a member of the very first Wildwood Class of
many alumni of Camp Westminster, Carolyn grew 1953 which was designed specifically to nurture
up attending Westminster Church of Detroit with the character, independence, faith, and outdoor
her parents Linn and Isabel Reid. Her faith was living skills of 16-year-old girls. This program
the center point of her life. Always ready with a affected hundreds of lives in a lasting way during
laugh and a hug, Carolyn taught many how to love its 33-year existence. Her love for the camp
God by example. continued in her later years as was demonstrated
by her attendance at summer services when she
and husband Dick Frazier stayed at their cottage
on Higgins Lake just east of the camp. Dick was
senior pastor at Trinity English Lutheran Church
of Fort Wayne, IN for 32 years where Sally was
very active in the life of the church. Dick would
serve as a guest preacher at the Westminster by
the Lake worship services each summer. Sally
and Dick’s legacy continues yet today with their
grandchildren from the Bohntinsky and Palmieri
families now participating as campers.
