GO CAMPING Young Man - - - Years ago Horace Greely told young men to seek success in the wild and woolly "Golden West." Today it is no less imperative that every young man keep in just as close contact as possible with the great outdoors, the natural elements, and all those hardy experiences which made the fathers and forefathers of America into a sturdy race of bold pioneers. "Young man go camping! Get out and rough it. Rub shoulders with the wind and wave, and come back home refreshed, strengthened, and ready for a better battle." The Camp Camp Buena Vista, established in the summer of 1898 by 1rhe Boston Young Men's Christian Association, offers you this opportunity for outdoor life,- free from restraint, full of pleasure and positive benefit. Location The camp is located on Sandy Island, Lake Winmipesaukee, New England's largest lake, situated in the famous White Mountains of New Hampshire. These mountains and this
