Welcome to Bungalow Colony People! Not much happens here but with any luck, you'll be able to connect with some old friends, there's definitely a bunch of us from Sunnycroft. Your name rings a bell, I'm a couple of years older than you but we were definitely there at the same time. Where was your bungalow? Do you have siblings?

There's some good Bungalow Colony conversations/threads - including Sunnycroft, and hopefully you can share some of your Bungalow Colony, Catskills memories - and maybe even a few photos and/or videos with everyone.

Bungalow Colony People is a personal project of mine that I started to help preserve a bit of the Catskills bungalow colony experience that I and so many others enjoyed years ago. My family and I went to Sunny Croft in Highland Mills (near Monroe) from '68 - '74.

The site is a bit funky as I'm running the very first version of Ning from 2008 or so, and the tech is definitely outdated but as this is self-funded, I've wanted to avoid the much higher monthly fees that an upgrade would incur.

I hope you make some connections, find some interesting stories and maybe share a few of your own!

Cheers,

Manny

Best,
