HISTORIC BRADY LODGE
Brady Lodge was built by George Nexsen Brady in 1921 and he founded Camp Brady. Once established, the camp
was run by the Detroit Area Council of Boys Scouts of America through the 1940s. For the next 30 years, the property
accommodated a recreational camp for mothers and children run by the District of Nursing Society. In 1972, it was
leased to yet another group serving underprivileged youth and children with disabilities.
Brady Lodge recently underwent a major facelift. Renovations have included a new roof, bell tower, windows and
glass cargo bays, interior and exterior paint, asphalt driveway and parking lot, a new electrical system, and bathrooms.
To learn more about Brady Lodge, or for information regarding renting this space for your next event,
