For every year I was at Lenore, we always took a trip to a recreation facility called Look Park. It was one of the most popular outings of the summer. Look Park was the closest thing we had to today's water parks. Only not nearly as elaborate and high tech. But, it was huge (or,so it seemed to us), and featured enormous swimming pools with twisting slides. There were other attractions as well. But, I just remember those swimming pools. Here's the Lenorlog entry for this date, written by Patsy Goldstein
"On the sunny after of August first, most the Inters took a long-dreamed of trip to Look Park- a paradise enjoyed by every active child. A few of its many attractions are tamed wild animals, peddle boats, and a large heated pool.
After an enjoyable bus ride, we arrived at the park. When we got settled, we had a delicious picnic lunch. After lunch, we eagerly explored the many sights.
The climax of the day, was when we went swimming in the huge heated pool, at the end of which was an enormous slide. Many campers had fun zooming down it.
We returned to camp tired, but happy with many pleasant memories of Look Park."
