Welcome to Bungalow Colony People! Not much happens here but with any luck, you'll be able to connect with some old friends, and enjoy some Bungalow Colony conversations/threads.
I think you may be the only person here who went to Damasek's Woodland Bungalow Colony - that doesn't happen to often! I did do a search about the colony to make sure it was legit (the security questions are to keep out spammers) and found this piece on the Borscht Belt Tattler blog - https://borschtbeltpod.buzzsprout.com/1788603/episodes/13148639. You might enjoy it.
I hope you'll find some connections here, and it would be great if you could share some of your Bungalow Colony, Catskills memories with the community - 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, and to help connect old friends. My family and I went to Sunny Croft in Highland Mills (near Monroe) from '68 - '74.
The site is a bit funky and quite outdated from a tech/web perspective as I'm running the very first version of the Ning platform from 2008, but since I'm self-funding this community site, I've wanted to avoid the much higher monthly fees that an upgrade would incur.
I hope you enjoy the site, find some interesting stories and maybe share a few of your own!
Best,
Manny Kivowitz
