at least 2 years and signed for a
3rd year! If you are not an up-todate ‘16 CLASP member but are
eligible and interested in mini-camp,
please add $15.00 for singles or
$20.00 for married couples to your
mini-camp tuition. Mini-camp is a
party but a party without alcohol.
We have mini-camp for the blobs,
water socks, Lazy River, Rio Flojo,
friends, good food and all the other
activities. SOOO, if you can’t control the situation and wait until your
“night off” (after mini-camp campfire) for that alcoholic beverage,
then mini-camp is not the place for
you. We want you to enjoy Camp
the same way you enjoyed it when
you were here in years past.
We are looking forward to another wonderful summer with our special campers and counselors and we
are looking forward to hearing from
you with your interesting stories,
pictures and letters.
AND, AGAIN, WE HOPE YOU
CAN JOIN US August 13/14 AT
INKS LAKE or INDIAN SPRINGS
for some great FUN at our 2016
mini-camps!
A note to all our minicamp “campers” . .
As
ex-campers,
WE
LOVE THOSE WONDERFUL MATTRESSES and
BUNK BEDS! But, not so for
many spouses! SO, if coming to mini-camp and spending the night in a motel close
by makes all happy, we are
for it, too! Check the CLH
website .. camplonghorn.
com . . for places to stay in
the area! Sunday morning,
breakfast will be at 8:00 am
at both camps before leaving for Church Mountain at
9:00 am.
The year is 1967 . .
The caption under the picture in
the annual reads . .

OVER WHEN THE O”DWYERS
GATHER UP THEIR FIVE!”

CLASP ON TO THE MEMORIES
CLASP MINI-CAMP
APPLICATION ENCLOSED
CHANGES ARE COMING!! But It‛s All Good . . .
Dear Special Friends,
Spring is a wonderful time of the
year! With our much needed rain, it
has finally come down in barrels and
more barrels! The lakes are full, the
grass is green, all of these wonderful
oak trees are spreading their glorious
blooms all over the place and the
camps will soon be ready to greet
those excited and energetic campers!
The wonderful friendships will be
rekindled and new friendships made
the first few hours at all the camps!
We are excited June 7th is almost
here!
C.L.A.S.P. (Camp Longhorn
Alumni and Special Parents) has
had a good and busy year! We
have so many great things to look
forward to! V-Day parking, with lots
of story telling and fun is enjoyed
by all when picking up campers
on V-Day. CLASP mini-camps are
always the last day of 4th Term and
a great way to end the summer. In
just a few short weeks the whirlwind of summer will begin. After
the summer’s end we start thinking
about and looking forward to the
Camp Longhorn Carnivals that start
in November!
Our V-Day parking schedule remains the same as in past summers.
It seems to be working with parents
paying their up-to-date CLASP dues
so they can have that special place
on the airstrips in the early morning
hours of V-DAY! This year “parking
passes” will be mailed in mid-May
to eligible CLASP Members so just
hang your “pass” on the rear view
mirror before you arrive! NO PASS
.. then you park in another place. So,
the lesson here is to pay your dues
early and then it’s smooth sailing on
V-Day! Those who are eligible to be
CLASP Members and pay their dues
are all Alumni OR parents who have
campers here 3 or more years. (The
upcoming summer counts as a year!)
Can go on line to CLH website,
download a 2016 Membership Form
and send in with your dues if you
have not already done so! There are
no “passes” available on V- Day!
STARTING IN SEPTEMBER
‘16, YOUR DUES CAN BE PAID
ONLINE. (Go to CLH website in
September for directions) “PARKING PASSES” CAN BE PRINTED ONLINE STARTING NEXT
MAY ‘17.
AND FOR SOME OF YOU
THAT HAVE BEEN ASKING
OVER AND OVER AGAIN . . WE
ARE OFFERING A LIFETIME
MEMBERSHIP STARTING IN
SEPTEMBER ‘16 .. $200.00 for
an individual and add a spouse for
$50.00 more!
Speaking of changes, LUMNews
will be mostly on line for those
e-mail addresses we have. MOST
OF YOU HAVE REQUESTED
OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO
RECEIVE CLASP MAIL ELECTRONICALLY, AND WE {WILL
START THAT PROCESS IN THE
FALL. For those of you who have
not paid your dues in a while, we
will start removing you from our
files in a timely manner! If you wish
to receive your newspaper by snail
mail or both, paper and electronically, please let us know! There are
more details in this paper! ..
Two great mini-camps at two
great camps! Plans are already in
the works for these ‘16 camps and
we know they will be the best ever!
WE HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US
AUGUST 13/14 for some special
fun-in - the-sun. What a perfect
time and place to share with cabin
mates, family members and friends
the memories of times past and
enjoy the excitement of all the fun
things we do at the camps! THIS
COMING SUMMER will be the
last summer for 2 mini-camps going
on at the same time! Starting in
‘17, there will be a mini-camp at
Indian Springs but not at Inks Lake
.. The next year ‘18 there will be a
mini- camp at Inks Lake but not at
Indian Springs. The camps will have
a mini-camp every other year! So,
you are welcome to come each year
but you will rotate the camps! Why
not try something new?!
Campfires at both camps are
always exciting and original and
our friends at Inks Lake and Indian
Springs are already thinking of
new and original campfire skits and
songs for our mini- camp campfires!
(There is a rumor that at this year’s
Inks Lake mini-camp we might
again have a MILLER/REEDER or
REEDER/MILLER all star campfire! Minicamp prices are $75.00
for one person and $140.00 for
married couples for those signing
up before arriving at mini-camps.
THOSE THAT SIGN UP AFTER
ARRIVING, the price goes up to
$85.00 a person or $150.00 for married couples. So, if you know you
are corning, sign up before you arrive to save a few bucks and can be
assured a mini-camp T-shirt. AND
REMEMBER . . one must be at
least 25 years of age to be a camper
at the camps. WHAT A BARGAIN!
This year the two mini-camps
will be going on at the same time
the last day of 4th Term. The camps
are clean and neat, the Chow Halls
are stocked with great food (maybe
some chicken fried steak?!), many
of the counselors are already at the
camps and at Springs, the horses
are looking forward to one last ride
before being put out to pasture for
the winter! WHAT FUN, FUN,
FUN TIMES WE WILL HAVE AT
BOTH CAMPS!
Included in this newspaper is a
mini-camp application and additional mini-camp applications,
dates, tuition, age, etc. are on the
Camp Longhorn website (www.
camplonghorn.com) Please check it
out! More questions or information?
Please e-mail us. My e-mail address
is [email protected] We
welcome and love news about our
Alumni and Special Parents. A
quick e-mail .. and maybe a picture
to us would be so special to know
what is happening to our friends in
our CLASP organization! WEDDING PICTURES .. please e-mail
info., picture, date married and town
married in! We will enjoy this information and know another 7,000+
will enjoy too!
Our “forever bricks” have surpassed all expectations these past
few years in remembering someone
forever! What a great success story.
It’s such a wonderful treat to walk
through this area at both camps
and read the messages of campers,
former campers, counselors and
CLASP Members! Our “forever
bricks” at Inks Lake are featured in
the pavilion and at Indian Springs
the bricks are in front of the office
and close to the Chow Hall. We
invite you to add your name(s) or
name(s) of someone that has been
to camp to the growing number of
bricks. They are $100 each and if
interested, an order form is enclosed
in this paper .. very popular!
What fun we have had with our
ATTAWAYTOGO AWARDS. We
give this fun award twice a year to
special people that are recognized
for their many accomplishments
through the years at camp and be-

Mountains on Sunday morning before saying SO-LONG-HORN until
next year.

Honoring TEX!
Friday afternoon (April 1st) . . a
Grand Re-Opening of the TEX ROBERTSON AQUATIC CENTER at
the YMCA of the Highland Lakes at
Galloway-Hammond was celebrated!
Many in the large crowd were former
swimmers, divers and coaches who
came to view the spectacular Swimming and Diving exhibition by our local swimmers, as well as World and National
Champions to honor the legacy of TEX and the history of
Burnet Swimming. Both pools have been replastered and
the pool deck is restored to its original condition to when it
was completed in 1998. The year-around swim team, called
“Tex’s Waves” in honor of TEX now has almost 50 swimmers and is growing. The pool is also home to many Seton
physical therapy patients, recreational swimmers and regular
water aerobics classes.
Thank you, BILL ROBERTSON, for taking such a
LARGE PART IN SUCH A SUCCESSFUL AND NEEDED
PROJECT.

ATTAWAYTOGO DON FROG & MO JACKSON . . .
What a pleasure and honor it
is to jot down some important
information about DON( FROG)
and CARO(MO) THOMPSON
JACKSON .. our newest ATTAWAYTOGO Recipients! It is a
wonderful and adventurous life
these two have had together!
DON started his camping career
in the late 40’s or early 50’s and
continued off and on until 1971.
MO’s journey started in 1961 as
a camper in the Coot cabin and
as a counselor, she continued for
many years 1966-1969 and 1971.
DON and MO met here at
camp .. girls swim bay to be exact and that was in 1968. DON
was already in the Navy and just
stopped by to help a few days ..
before camp started that summer. DON FROG resigned from
the Navy, married MO February
1, 1969 and on February 3, 1969
started a new job as a pilot with
American Airlines.
In 1971 they came to camp as
a family .. dogs and all .. for their
last time as counselors! They had
many moves through the years as
DON flew for American Airlines
over 30 years, finally settling
down in Rockport, TX in 1997.
Adventure is still a big part of
their lives. In 2003 they traveled
from the tip of Texas to Maine
and back to the Chesapeake in
their 36 ft. Grand Banks trawler
and 2007 bought an Airstream
trailer and headed to Alaska.
Gunnison, CO is a favorite place
for DON’s fishing and MO’s
painting. Through his flying years
and after introducing himself
from the cockpit, people often
sent notes to the cockpit asking if
he was DON FROG from Camp
Longhorn and he is still referred
to as “FROG” by many.
They now split their time between Rockport and Ft. Worth
so they can spend time with son
MATT and daughter BLAIR and
her husband WADE CHAPPELL
and grandchildren .. CAROLINE
(6) and SUTHERLAND (3) .. future campers! Both MATT and
BLAIR were campers and counselors for many, many years.
MO’s time, when not with
grandchildren, is spent with the
Rockport Art Center, Art Festival, The Odyssey After School
Enrichment Program and is a
member of Wind Way Gallery.
Don loves his time hunting and
fishing and both are active in their
church.
Many different thoughts and
contributions come to mind when
thinking about FROG and MO
through their years here at camp

MO so eloquently sums up
their love affair with Camp Longhorn through the years ..
“It is a place we both loved
as a child .. college age .. lived
through it with our children who
loved it and continue to act as
unofficial ambassadors. We hope
our next generation will get their
“early bird” and be a part of a
tradition that in our opinion unequaled anywhere. After reading
the book about TEX .. I got it ..
I realized how he got us to do
all those things that you thought
you couldn’t do! Camp gave us
a chance to be a better people
and I have lived with my favorite
counselor for 47 years!”
We are SOOO DELIGHTED
and SOOO HAPPY that MO and
DON FROG are our newest ATTAWAYTOGO recipients and are
looking forward to their return
to camp this coming summer to
claim their “forever tree”!

FIESTA!
By DARBY TAYLOR BERRA
This is ERIN and Alumni CLAYTON HARRISON enjoying Fiesta ‘16 in San Antonio. Thanks, ERIN & CLAYTON, for sharing
this special picture!
To the next generation . . .
By KAREN EVANS BRYANT
When HELEN FRADY asked me
to contribute to the alumni newsletter I was very excited to share my
thoughts on Camp Longhorn. I attended 1st term for nine years and
served two summers as a counselor.
Needless to say, I LOVED camp. My
experiences at camp and the friends
I made had such a positive impact on
my life that I couldn’t wait to give
my children the opportunity to experience the same.
That time has arrived and this
summer we will be sending our 8
year old boy, WALKER, to camp.
WALKER is both excited and a little
nervous, but I have been sharing stories and pictures from old annuals to
give him a little taste of what to expect. For me, camp was a time where
you were able to escape from what
seems to be the mundane routine of
life and have fun!
What camp also allows is a level
of independence that I believe is so
important for children to learn early
in life. I have no doubt WALKER
will have the same positive experiences as a camper in cabin 0 that I
had as a wren. I can’t wait to hear his
stories of his favorite activities, new
friends, the beauty of church mountain, and the grueling mile swim!
My hope is that he recognizes camp
is not just something that fills three
weeks out of his summer, but that it
is a special place where the golden
rule is paramount and cabin mates
become life long friends.
KAREN EVANS BRYANT, thank
you so much for your story! It’s
many years of Camp Longhorn . . .
. a great summary of your time spent
on the shores of Inks Lake and now
your son WALKER will soon be here
to experience the same things you
loved several years back! The faces
Karen Evans Bryant
have mostly changed but every day
routines have changed very little ..
Chow, Rest Period, Church Mtn.,
Dance Nite, Campfire and on and on
are just some of the activities WALKER will be writing home about!
KAREN was a camper for nine years
and two years as a counselor. All at
Inks Lake. She grew up in San Antonio and lives there now with CLH
Alumni husband JEFF and their
four children . . . WALKER (8) will
be a camper at Inks Lake this coming summer, WESTON (6), ELIZABETH (3) and EMILIA (3 months)
.. all future campers! KAREN is a
Healthcare Executive/Mother of 4
children! As a camper, she enjoyed
being a Campfire Lighter! KAREN
has a Bachelors degree from SMU
and her Masters is from Trinity University. We thank you again, KAREN,
for taking the time from a very tight
schedule to jot down your wonderful thoughts and memories .. a great
story! We look forward to seeing you
this summer V-Day, 2nd Term!
This year I had the opportunity
to take my children ELLIE (5) and
TAYLOR (4) to the Camp Longhorn
carnival for the first time when it
came to Austin. I was so excited to
introduce them to NAN and to the
camp I love so much. When we left
the carnival in between licks of her
candy cigar, ELLIE said, “Well I am
going to go to Camp Longhorn one
day!” It made my heart so happy because Camp Longhorn holds such a
special place in my heart.
I made so many great friendships
and memories in the seven years I
was a camper and three years I was
a counselor. I can still remember
boarding the bus in Houston for my
first year of camp in 1989. I was off
to 2nd term at Indian Springs, and so
nervous to be away from home for
three full weeks! I remember getting
off the bus and ASHLEY and NAN
announcing, “This is DARBY, and
she is a Palomino!” My counselors
and cabin mates were waiting and
cheering for me. I was immediately
at ease, and from there my journey
began.
It seems like just yesterday I was
there. I have so many fond memories
from camp. I remember hiking to
church mountain and sitting watching the sky on fire as the sun set
while we waited for the friendship
flash. I remember the excitement
for the BLOB, the trolley, and frog
day. Playing tetherball before chow
time, singing “Taps” at the end of
campfire, dance night with fireworks
on the 4th of July, gumdrop day, the
carnival and getting married. I remember wanting to place so badly in
the mile swim, and finally succeeding my Marina year! And who from
second term could forget MIKE ROBLES, TIM DAWSON and ROB
SAYLES performing “Another One
Bites the Dust” on skit night?
The list of memories could go on
and on, and the traditions that camp
offers are so amazing, but one of the
best things about camp to me is the
friendships that are made. I have
some life long friends from CLH
who I still see, some more often than
others, and Camp Longhorn always
comes up in conversation when we
are together. It means so much to
so many people because it is such
a special place. You share so much
together, and to this day when I meet
someone who went to Camp Longhorn we immediately have a special
connection and common bond. Everybody truly is somebody at Camp
Longhorn.
I can honestly say Camp Longhorn helped make me a better person. I learned so much from camp
and the people around me. Camp
teaches you so many great life lessons, like how to get along with people, using your manners, and being
independent and doing things for
yourself. It truly shapes you as an
individual, and prepares you for life.
I look forward to the day my
children hopefully begin their adventures at CLH, and the memories
and friendships they will make. I
still sing them to sleep with campfire
songs, and so it is funny how looking
at them in the backseat on the drive
home from the carnival in my rear-
Darby Taylor Berra
view mirror I thought, wow, life has
come full circle, and I couldn’t feel
more blessed.
DARBY TAYLOR BERRA .. what
a special writing! Included are the
names of so many wonderful people!
The special activities and traditions
you mention are favorites of many!
And, of course, the BLOB usually
tops the list! We are so happy you
had the opportunity to bring your
children to the Austin Carnival to
enjoy the movies, play the games and
even enjoy a sticky candy “cigar”!
DARBY grew up in Houston and now
lives in Austin with husband DAN
and their two children ELLIE (5)
and TAYLOR (4), both future Indian
Springs Campers!
She was a camper for seven years
and counselor three years at Indian
Springs. DARBY is one busy MOM!
Besides being a Morn and homemaker (she says she is CEO/BERRA household!), she is a substitute
teacher. DARBY is very involved
with her children’s schools, church
and volunteer through the Jr. League
of Austin. She chaired the Dell Children’s Hospital Miracle Book this
year for the Children’s hospital, and
just joined the Elizabeth Ann Seton
Board! Husband DAN is Founder/
CEO of Pivotal Analytics. She was
Marina Favorite in ‘94, a campfire lighter many times and a top 5
mile swimmer! DARBY loved being
a counselor at CLH! She graduated
frorn Washington and Lee University
.. class of 2002! We thank you over
and over again, DARBY for such a
special writing and we look forward
to seeing you sometime with your
children when they come to camp for
a visit!

We‛re back . . another camper heading to CLH
By GALEN BEVERIDGE
RECKLING
It was hard to organize my
thoughts about Camp longhorn,
probably because my family has such
a long history with camp. My mother,
MARCIA MURRAY BEVERIDGE,
and her family’s time at camp date
back close to the beginning of when
TEX and PAT started their camp on
the shores of Inks lake. My mother
told us TEX and PAT were in Dallas
(where my mother is from) recruiting campers and counselors for their
new camp and that is how she started as one of the first girl counselors
the year girls started going to camp.
(I believe camp was all boys when it
first started.)
Her brothers, MIKE and JEFF
MURRAY were campers also (we
found Uncle MIKE’s plaque dated
1947 still hanging at camp) so we still
aren’t sure what year they started. My
mother’s sister, (my namesake), GALEN MURRAY also attended camp.
As a child, my mom always told me
and my siblings lots of stories about
camp and how many fond memories
that she had. Stories about campfire,
swim bay, Church Mountain and the
ghosts of Camp Longhorn.
She always talked lovingly about
TEX and PAT, BILL and MF JOHNSON, RAY and HELEN FRADY,
BOB HUDSON and BOB TARLTON to name a few.
When my parents married they
lived in Houston and started their
family in 1963. I was the oldest of
four and money was tight so my
mom had to convince my dad to start
saving up so they could start sending
us to camp so we could experience
camp like she did. We did not go on
big family trips in the summers, but
by the time I was 12 they had saved
enough for me and some of my siblings to start camp.
We always went 2nd term and
I started as a Quail in the Big Bonnet division. My sisters BROOKE
BEVERIDGE BASS and ALEX
BEVERIDGE DAVID, as well as
our brother DAVID BEVERIDGE
all finally were campers. My sister,
BROOKE’s kids - KELSEY, MICHAEL and GRACE (who will be a
chief this summer) all attended camp.
My cousins on my mother’s side of
the family also send their kids to
camp now, too.
Camp to me, was FAR BETIER
than any trip I could of ever gone on!
I looked forward to camp every summer until I was a Wrangler Chief and
then I was a counselor for one summer. When my three weeks at camp
was over every summer, I went into
a slump because those were the best
days of my life! As a side note, and
a funny story .. My sister, BROOKE
and I ran against each other for Queen
one summer and I won. We still laugh
about that (sibling rivalry)!
As for me, I got married to my
high school sweetheart, STEPHEN
RECKLING, who never went to
camp, the summer I graduated from
SMU in 1986. We started our family
in 1987 and welcomed a boy, STEPHEN, JR. (now 28), then the next
year, another boy, MATTHEW (now
27), and another .. BRYANT (now
25) and four years later, HUNTER
A Fourth generation Camp Longhorn Legacy story
By MORGAN TARLTON
POLLY
Galen & Stephen Recking with their family . . Matthew & Caroline,
Stephen, Jr., Bryant, Hunter and John Patrick.
Right - This picture, taken March 2006 in Houston, was the front
cover of the neighborhood news featuring Galen and her four boys .
. Stephen, Jr., Matthew, Bryant and Hunter . . with their trunks getting
ready for some great fun-in-the-sun at Camp Longhorn.
(now 21). I, like my mom, wanted my children to go to camp, so
as soon as they had completed 2nd
grade they all became campers.
When our three oldest sons were
teenagers they all played select, year
around baseball, so summers were
spent at baseball tournaments with
hopes of squeezing in a three week
term for camp. Our second son, MATIHEW was a pitcher at Rice University from 2008-2012 and then was
drafted by the LA Dodgers where he
played in their system for 2 years
and then married a Camp Longhorn
(Indian Springs) girl, CAROLINE
FARMER from Austin.
When our oldest son, STEPHEN,
was 20 and our youngest son, HUNTER, was 12 God blessed us with, yet,
another son .. JOHN PATRICK who
is now old enough to attend camp for
the first time this summer!
So we are BACK!! Needless to
say I am thrilled to be sending another camper to camp this summer and
we are looking forward to all of JP’s
stories about camp on V-day. Hopefully we will have some grand kids
soon and they will be campers, too ..
Maybe I will finally get back to the
girls camp!!
and Camp Longhorn. GALEN comes
from a Camp Longhorn, Camp Longhorn, Camp Longhorn family filled
with many, many years of fun here
on the shores of Inks Lake and lots
of fond memories passed down from
generation to generation. And now,
GALEN and husband STEPHEN
“ARE BACK” with young son JOHN
PATRICK (known as JP) coming
for the first time this summer! Their
four other boys, STEPHEN, JR (28),
GALEN BEVERIDGE RECK- MATTHEW (27), BRYANT (25) and
LING .. what an interesting article! HUNTER (21), are all CLH exes and
It‘s a history lesson of your family daughter-in-law, CAROLINE FARM-
Kudos To Camp Longhorn
ER, who is married to MATTHEW, is
also a CLH Indian Springs ex! GALEN’s camping years were in the
70’s and she was a counselor for one
year. Husband STEPHEN is a money manager with SOLIENT PARTNERS and GALEN is a BUSY mom!
A Campfire lighter many times, she
was Queen in 1976. GALEN graduated from SMU! What a great MOM,
taking care of a household of guys ..
and what a great story . . You are truly a CLH Girl!

As our son, ELI, prepares for his
first summer at Indian Springs, it
seems to be the appropriate time to
reminisce about our family legacy at
Camp Longhorn. My great uncle was
BOB TARLTON. Yes, that BOB - the
one famous in my mind for campfrre
stories told with only the light of his
cigarette visible. My dad is KENNO
TARLTON, longtime camper and
counselor who still wears his Longhorn ring today. I was sent to Ranch
Branch at the age of 8 very aware of
the legacy before me, yet unaware
of the effect Camp Longhorn would
have on me for the rest of my life.
When NAN MANNING called
my name as we got out of our car
during ELI’s camp visit this past
summer, it reminded me of the first
day of camp stepping off the bus
to hear NAN announce my home
for the next 3 weeks. As I breathed
in the familiar air, I was amazed at
how much camp looked exactly as I
remembered it and nevertheless had
changed and grown in just the right
way. The rock climbing wall may
have replaced rappelling down the
side of the chow hall, but Uno cards
were still scattered across a cabin
floor. I was overjoyed to see the look
of awe on ELI’s face as he saw Indian
Springs for the frrst time.
My dad and I have been telling
ELI stories for years about the experiences, friends, and adventures
that Longhorn provides. I sang CLH
campfire songs as lullabies when
ELI was a baby. (After TAPS, Linger, and a few others, he would still
be awake and the only slow one left
I could remember was “Oh, they
built the ship Titanic to sail the ocean
blue.” Not exactly the best newborn
song!) We’ve told him about the activities - swimming, archery, riflery,
tennis, blob, wildlife, snorkeling, etc.
ELI is surprised I know how to play
pickleball and water polo because of
camp. I do admit that I still casually mention my canoe activity award
more often than I should. My dad has
talked about his lifelong friends from
camp- RED DOG JONE, GARDNER PARKER, and BILL GREENHILL. And, of course, we have told
him about his great-great uncle BOB
flying the gumdrop plane.
There are so many wonderful
friends and counselors whose names
make me smile as I remember those
summers. From my fellow Ponies
HILLARY McDONALD and SHELLEY WATSON to my Chief girls
LISA GUAJARDO and NICOLE
HENRICH to SUSAN COOPER,
SHANNON ELLIOTT, and KELLI
RICOTTILLI and the many others
in between as well as the counselors including BETH HAIRSTON,
HEATHER McGOWAN, LACY
SMITH, ASHLEY BALCH, MOLLY QUIRK, MARILYN AMIS,
CATHY CASTLE and ASHLEY
OLLINGER. Lastly, AMY SCOTT
who was my first big sister, my cabin counselor 2 separate times, and
fmally activity director when I was
a counselor.
Camp Longhorn didn’t just provide me with new friends as a camp-
awaited the letter in October with an
acceptance, and now prepare to pack
their trunks for 3 glorious weeks!
PRESTON BROWN’s article in
LumNews last year was a fantastic
look into the restlessness of wanting
your child to love CLH as much as
you. PRESTON was counselor when
I was a camper which made it more
poignant. It even helped my husband, BRYAN, who never attended
sleep-away camp, understand the
pull Longhom has on us and our
deep desire for our own children to
attend.
Morgan Tarlton Polly w/son Eli
er, but it has also bonded me more
with my friend LEIGH WITTENBRAKER JONES who was an Inks
Lake camper during the same years I
was at Indian Springs. Although we
didn’t meet until our children attended the same elementary school, we
realized our CLH connection at the
Fort Worth Carnival a few years ago.
How wonderful it was to have another alumni be nervous with me when
we applied for our children in the
early rooming on June 1st, anxiously
through! And how could anyone
forget your great uncle BOB TARLTON and his famous JANIE stories
at Campfire. And then there is your
Dad, KENNO TARLTON . . . a very
popular camper and counselor at
Inks Lake for many years. You have
sooo many wonderful connections
to both camps it was an easy choice
for you to choose Longhorn .. as a
camper 1982 - 1990 and 1991 as
a counselor, all at Indian Springs.
MORGAN had several hometowns
growing up . . Albuquerque .. Atlanta, GA .. Ft. Worth and now lives in
Ft. Worth with husband BRYAN and
Parents always ask me “How can son ELI (7). ELI will be a camper
you possibly send him to sleep-away
camp for 3 weeks?!?” Easy answerIt’s his time to experience the magic
of Church Mountain, the thrill of fmding arrowheads at cookouts, the fun
of trying new activities, the excitement of Carnival Night, the laughter
of campfire skits, and the exhilaration of finishing the mile swim and
then eating catfish for lunch. We are
truly blessed to have our 4th generation continue this family legacy.

By JENNIFER CRIDER MISKOVSKY
My sister STACY and I spent
many wonderful summers in the hill
country visiting my grandparents
in Marble Falls, going to Natural
Bridge Caverns, the Lyndon B. Johnson National Park, and tubing down
the Guadalupe River. We seemed to
hit the same “hot spots” every year
but loved the steamy Texas summers, cooling off in the lakes during
the day and catching fireflies at night.
When I was 8, my parents informed
my sister and I that we would be going to Camp Longhorn for 2 weeks
in the summer instead of spending
the time at my grandparents home.
We did our best to contain our enthusiasm but were more than thrilled
with the change in routine!
I remember pulling into the CL
gates that August morning, my
stomach filled with excitement and
butterflies! It felt like we drove for
hours down that long, winding road,
reading all of the silly signs along the
way. We unloaded our heavy trunks
and made our way to the cabins. We
could not take our eyes off of the interior of the cabins and the multiple
layers of paint canvassed with wall
plaques listing all of the campers
and counselors who had come before
us. I had never seen so many bunkbeds in one room. I lugged my trunk
across the concrete floor to a lower
bunk and began making my bed and
getting settled in. I changed into my
Camp Longhorn t-shirt and navy
shorts with white piping and began
searching the water for the orange,
blue and white floating pillow, the
infamous blob! How long would I
have to wait before testing it out?
Next, it was off to the Hummer
Up cabin to get my sister unpacked.
I remember being envious of her
second story cabin, thinking of the
fun she would have running up and
down the ramp for the next 2 weeks.
Thankfully, my day would come as I
was a Hummer Up my second year
at camp.
There are so many vivid memories and traditions that flood my
mind when thinking of CL. The delicious food served on those metal
trays at the Chow Hall, KP, Church
Mountain, snack time, mail call, the
blob, the mile swim, petting zoo,
archery, the milkshake, old faceful,
campfire lighters, the silly skits we
created using only butcher paper and
styrofoam props, feeling an immediate bond with my counselors, falling
asleep to the sounds of crickets and
the water lapping the sides of the
floating cabins.
We spent 2 summers attending
4th term and then chose to extend
our camp experience by moving to
2nd term. We had the time of our life.
We made great friends, gained confidence, independence and self worth.
We found great joy and comfort in
returning year after year.
Fast forward to 2010 in Corpus
Christi, Texas. I decided to take our
girls, SARAH and ELLA to their
first carnival. They were only 3
and 4 at the time but I thought they
were ready for their introduction to
CL. Although the video and games
Chris & Jennifer Crider Miskovsky with their girls
Ella (l) & Sarah
peeked their interest, they were most
interested in winning prizes. We continued to go year after year, eventually taking them to V-day in 2012
when they were 5 and 7. It was time
for the family to see this amazing
place in person.
It was so refreshing to return
to Main and see that nothing had
changed. My girls were amused
with the signs leading into camp, the
colorful cabins that had a few more
coats of paint and the infamous blob.
We were surrounded by decorated
suburbans and reunions between
parents and their kids. Everyone was
smiling.
My husband, Chris, commented
on how refreshing it was to see a
place that was so authentic; a place
that focused on the true purpose of
camp.
We returned to the Wren cabin
where it all began and stood looking
at all of the plaques. I was surprised
when the woman standing next to me
studying the same plaque was in fact
one of my cabin mates from 4th term
of 1983. What a small world!
In 2013, we moved to Frisco and
continued attending carnivals. Many
of the people we met through school
spoke of another summer camp, always using the tagline, “Everybody
goes there. The girls will know everyone in their cabin!”
Most parents would find comfort
in that statement but it had the opposite effect on me. We wanted our
girls to go to a new place with new
faces. We wanted them to make new
friends and build new relationships.
It wasn’t until the carnival in January 2015 that as we left, my girls
asked which term they would be
attending. I was ecstatic that they
were now ready! I immediately sent
their applications to BILL, contacting him regularly to make sure we
could secure a spot for the both of
them. I wanted my girls to have this
experience together as Stacy and I
had. They did not have room available that summer so we decided to
consider C3 for 2016. STACY BENNETT was so kind and accommodating.
They have plans to attend third
term at C3 this coming summer. Not
only will they embark on a new ad-
venture but they will be part of a new
tradition as the first class of campers
at C3!

it’s never very long before I meet

Longhorn.
PS the answer to the merit question is a humming bird, thanks Tex I
never forgot!
By LUCI PIPES BELL
We are family, these three little
words have never meant more as
I reflect on my time spent at Camp
Longhorn. As a former camper and a
parent of a brand new camper I have
really thought about Camp Longhorn
and all that it means.
In 1983, I boarded the bus feeling
so confident having just finished 2nd
grade and waved happily to my parents as we departed making our way
to Inks Lake. I knew what I was doing I had visited the summer before
on V-day. I even had my interview
with TEX, I can still remember the
merit question I missed, “Name the
only bird that can fly backwards?” I
still have never forgotten the answer
and even prepped our daughter for
that tricky question this past summer
for her interview. I knew the delights
that were waiting for me, the blob,
the water socks, canoeing, archery,
arts & crafts, swim bay, dance nights,
carnival and the list goes on. I could
hardly wait to step off the bus and
start having fun.
On the first bus ride, I remember
having Church’s friend chicken and
learning the songs of Camp Longhorn
and earning merits along the way.
When we made the hairpin turn off
of the old bridge and the bus roared
with excitement, as we were getting
close, I could hardly wait. The first
few campers stepped off the bus and
their names were shouted with glee as
their cabins were announced. I could
hardly wait for my turn and there it
was; LUCI PIPES is a Wren! I had
no idea that these friends would be
my new family for the next 3 weeks
and years to come.
The counselors hugged and greeted me and made me feel welcome
and we made our way to the cabin.
I remember going in and choosing a
bunk and finding my very first merit pin attached to the mattress and
counting the five merits that were
given to me. Oh the pride I felt when I
first pinned them onto my shorts. The
rest of the day flew by and the Wren
cabin started to fill up completely, 13
campers and 3 counselors, The Wren
cabin had become my home away
from home, friends I had just met
were now like sisters and we were
doing everything together. In three
weeks time, the 13 of us who were
away from home for the first time had
really bonded, we did all of our activities together, ate in the chow hall,
played old maid and ended our days
together with camp fire and the Lords
prayer each and every day, we had
become a family.
The next year I anxiously awaited
to return back to camp and greet all
of my old friends, the friendships had
not changed and we were meeting
new friends along the way. As I look
back at the original group who started as Wrens and those who finished
along side as Chiefs, there were 10 of
us, which is pretty amazing.
Once the camping days were over,
I was not certain the next time I would
see my friends. It came sooner than
I thought When I was a freshman at
TCU going through rush, the names,
the girls, I knew so many, it was like
coming home. There was a bond of
Reunion
Luci Pipes Bell
recognition and laughs shared about
CLH days, an instant family away
from home!
After college I had the same experience of meeting more friends
from Camp Longhorn, even though
we didn’t know each other, there
was a connection from Camp Longhorn and a new life long friendship
formed. Many years ago I moved
back to my home town and was invited into a book club, a little nervous about meeting new friends I set
out for our very first meeting, and of
15 people in the group, one of them
was an original from my Wren Cabin, wow family again! Not to mention 3 new friends had also gone to
Longhorn.
This summer we are sending our
daughter off to the new C3. She has
asked millions of questions and I
keep telling her some of the greatest friends and memories will come
from the special place on Ink’s Lake.
LUCI PIPES BELL .. what a
great story about Family! The Camp
Longhorn family! Family is never far away! It’s the reunions with
“old” family and meeting new family along the way! Camp is more
than just the activities .. it’s making
lifelong friends and wherever one
goes there is bound to be a Camp

Counting twelve years of fun at Camp
By HAL ten BRINK
My best friend went to Camp
Longhorn and, of course, I needed to
try it out.
I started Camp third term 1963. I
was a little older than most 1st year
campers and started in Cabin 11 Buffaloes. We had a great counselor,
TOM TEMPLE ALLEN. The counselor in the next door Cabin 10 was
GUICH KOOCK. Of course I was
immediately hooked and had a great
first year.
I was very fortunate to have great
counselors including DICK WHITE
for two years and got invited back
each year. l was from Houston and
met a number of friends at Camp
who I continue to see to this day.
After V-Day my third year, I left
Camp and my family moved to New
York with my father’s job. For me,
it was a difficult transition, but one
thing that helped the most was I
knew I would be going to Camp the
next summer. After another year as a
camper, Wrangler, I was fortunate to
get invited back as a counselor.
As a counselor, I had the best job I
could imagine. I loved working with
the campers and doing things I loved
to do, especially sailing and ski-
Hal ten Brink
ing. Working the sailing tower was
challenging at times, but it was fun
helping campers navigate the waters
of Inks Lake. Driving a ski boat and
seeing the excitement of campers
getting up on skis or slaloming for
the first time was very satisfying. All
the while working for RAY FRADY
and BILL JOHNSON was educational because of their unique abilities to
run the best Camp in the world. With
their senses of humor, Camp work
was fun. Even when I was caught a
little off track, I was confronted with
a sly and amusing remark pointing
out the problem; never anger.
After two more years, I was ready
for college. Fortunately, I was able
to get into he University of Texas.
Finally, after four years, I was back
in Texas for good. I went back to
Camp for five more incredible years
as a counselor. I had many really fine
campers and lots of fun. In fact, most
of the campers were so much fun to
be around it never seemed like a job,
just a fun place to spend the summer.
One thing that stands out in my mind
is story time at night.
My favorite was the story of JOSIAH WILBARGER, handed down
by J. FRANK DOBIE. I heard this
story as a camper and told it to all my
campers. I hope the campers enjoyed
Camp and all it had to offer as much
as I did.
As with all good things, it finally
ended. I was in law school and my
new wife could not be talked into
going with me another year. Later,
my son, SAM ten BRINK, did go for
twelve years as well and I got to at
least visit Camp and attend alumni
camp.
It Is still the best job 1 ever had.
HAL ten BRINK .. You are a great
story teller! Your memories and
thoughts of your years here at Camp
are so much fun to read. The counselors you had are pretty famous!! And,
what more could a counselor want to
teach besides skiing and sailing and
you were sooo good at it! HAL grew
up in Houston and then New York and
after the move he knew that he could
count on camp and that trip back
to Texas each summer! HAL was a
camper for four years and counselor 8 years . . all at Inks Lake . . He
is an attorney in Austin, recently retired from the State of Texas and wife,
BARBARA, is a science educator.
Son, SAM, who is 31 years old was
a camper and counselor at Inks Lake
for twelve years. A Campfire Lighter
several years, HAL, was in charge
of sailing for many, many years as a
Counselor. A graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, B.A., Government, he attended St. Mary’s University School of Law, J.D. We thank you
again, HAL, for your special story
and we thank you for taking the time
from a busy schedule to jot down your
thoughts and memories! WE APPRECIATE YOU!
An Impact Far Beyond Camp
Thanks For All The Memories CLH
By CHANCE BOLTON
When first asked to write about
my experiences and memories at
CLH, a flood of images went through
my mind. Shooting a hundred feet (it
seemed at the time) in the air off the
back of the blob, whizzing down the
trolley line from the top of the tower,
and gush of water from the Ol’ Facefull hitting my face for a much needed refreshment.
These recollections are just a
small sample of the many memories of the fun and adventure. My
earliest memory was getting ready
to board the bus my first year as a
camper. Several of my friends were
headed to camp, as well. Unknown
to me at the time, my parents had
registered me to go to the Inks camp,
while my friends were headed to Indian Springs. Once I realized I was
on my own, I was nervous about the
situation. By the time we arrived at
camp, nervousness was replaced
with excitement and my hesitation
was gone.

activities are available for the campers to not only have a great time,
but also to learn how do something
new. I learned to sail, ride horseback, scuba dive, become a much

It’s A Man Thing . . .
BAGPIPER AT A FUNERAL .
As a bagpiper, I play many gigs.
Recently I was asked by a funeral
director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no
family or friends, so the service was
to be at a pauper’s cemetery in the
back country. As I was not familiar
with the backwoods, I got lost and,
being a typical man, I didn’t stop for
directions.
I finally arrived an hour late and
saw the funeral guy had evidently
gone and the hearse was nowhere in
sight. There were only the diggers
and crew left and they were eating
lunch. I felt badly and apologized
to the men for being late. I went
to the side of the grave and looked
down and the vault lid was already in
place. I didn’t know what else to do,
so I started to play.
The workers put down their
lunches and began to gather around.
I played out my heart and soul for
this man with no family and friends.
I played like I’ve never played before for this homeless man. And
as I played “Amazing Grace,’ the
workers began to weep. They wept,
I wept, we all wept together. When
I finished I packed up my bagpipes
and started for my car.
Though my head hung low, my
heart was full. As I opened the door
to my car, I heard one of the workers
say, “I never seen nothin’ like that
before and I’ve been putting in septic
tanks for twenty years.”
Appareptly, I’m still lost . . It’s a
man thing.
Truly A Unique Exprience . . recalling memories of Camp Longhorn
By MARK MACATEE
Recalling memories of Camp
Longhorn is easy. Composing them
is not. There are truly too many superlatives of my experience of it that
any attempt to relate an accurate picture would always fall short, at least
in my mind.
The good news though is that if
you are reading this, you already
know what I mean. You know that
Camp Longhorn is quite possibly the
greatest place on earth; that it is the
best place for a young boy or girl to
grow into a young man or woman;
that it has everything a kid could
ever want to do, see, or learn; that
each kid’s best friends are discovered there. Okay, enough hyperbole.
But my sentiments are not far off.
Though I was only a camper for
5 years (a story for another time) I
have a lifetime of memories: friends
and counselors, campfires, OD, activities, Church Mountain, cabins,
fireworks (2nd term), dance night,
carnival, merits, and even the signs
on the way in (“Honk your horn
long,” “Don’t take this road for
granite,” “Cedar tree?” etc). Even
as I write, the kid in me wants to go
back to camp again this summer under false pretenses: “Honey, I’ve got
a business trip in Central Texas in
June. It’s 3 weeks. Would you please
pack my foot locker for me?”
Mark Macatee
My first year is probably the most
memorable for me. What a new experience. My counselors were BLACK
DOG JONES, DOUG SHELDON
and SCOTT ADAMS. Being away
from home for three weeks seemed
abnormally long, especially when
you’re in a cabin with (literally) a
bunch of strangers. But I don’t ever
recall being homesick. Actually, I
think I made friends pretty quickly
(that’s probably pretty easy for an
eight-year-old boy) and I quickly
forgot about Dallas altogether. Except when the mail came. Getting
something from home was almost
the highlight of the day. It was probably just enough “home” I needed to
feel free to explore this new world.
And while V -Day was a pinnacle of
sorts, it was always tinged with a bit
of sadness, knowing that it was all
over -- at least for a whole year.
Which is why I’m so thankful
for Alumni Camp. Why should the
kids have all the fun. It’s great to
relive memories, but I think everyone who’s been to camp is still a kid
at heart and really needs a weekend
like that to reconnect with long time
friends, meet new ones, and be a
camper again for a brief moment.
Though I’m not always able to go, I
always love the continuity that exists
for Camp Longhorn.
It’s special. And it’s amazing that
the traditions born decades ago have
continued and are as “current” today
as they were then. What a tribute to
the ROBERTSONS and those who
have helped run the camp.
But more than any of that, I attribute so many life lessons to my
time at Camp Longhorn: politeness,
respect, putting others first, self-discipline, creativity, loving others,
how to have a zeal for life, the importance of remembering a person’s
name and looking them in the eye,
structure, what to do with free time,
and that since we’re born barefoot,
one should be barefoot as much as
possible.
My daughter is almost six, and
we recently went to her first Carnival. With the excitement of a dad
for his only daughter, we have been
introducing her to camp and she is
already singing the songs. I’m so
excited about the prospect of her going to Camp Longhorn -- I’m hoping
that she will want to go when it’s her
time. But more so, I’m hoping she
has a passion for it; that she eats it
up like I did.
Thanks Camp Longhorn. You’ve
impacted my life and a multitude of
others in a great way.
Attawaytogo!
MARK MACATEE . . what a great
article! Love your thoughts and
memories! Isn’t it amazing the memories that last forever! The lifetime
friends starting at Camp are many!
It’s just wonderful that you make
mini-camp some years . . to get that
refresher on the blob and other activities. And, just being with friends is
what mini-camp is all about! MARK,
who grew up in Dallas, lives there
now with wife KELLI WELLS MACATEE and daughter JORDAN (6).
Never a counselor, he was a camper
for 5 years. MARK owns a technology consulting business focused on
internet solutions. Wife KELLI is
a Life Coach. MARK was a Campfire Lighter each year he came as a
camper and was a Favorite Camper. He attended Duke University, the
University of Texas in Austin and has
a BS in Mechanical Engineering. We
thank you again, MARK, for such a .
. fun to read . . article that includes
lots of wonderful camp memories!

My first year as a camper in ‘96
I thought I was going to camp to get
out of the house, meet new people,
and have fun before I headed back to
school. I didn’t realize that two weeks
in Burnet, Texas would change my
life forever.
As a camper, I quickly realized
that everybody was somebody. It
seems cliche, but over the past 20
years I have experienced first-hand
how that motto can change lives.
You never know what is going on in
a camper’s life when they get off the
bus, but CLH provides a place for everyone to forget what is going on in
their day-to-day lives and just have
fun for two to three weeks.
For six years, I had the opportunity to go to camp and develop lifelong friendships with other campers,
counselors and directors, before becoming a counselor. While camp has
blessed me with many friends, it was
a new director that I met that year that
continues to have a lasting impact on
the way I live my life.
When I first met DAVID BENNETT, I didn’t think much of it. As
an 11 year-old, I really liked his dog
Mason, but I wasn’t that fond of Aggies at the time. It was the next year
when he helped my twin brother
(and mom) get through his first year
of camp that I started to realize how
much he really cared about us.
As I continued as a camper, my
respect for DAVID grew. However,
it wasn’t until I became a counselor
that I got to know DAVID (and STACY) personally. Luckily for me, he
took a vested interest in my success
as a counselor and, even more importantly, as a person.
My first year as a counselor I came
back for second term as a “Super’’ JC.
DAVID took a chance and gave me
significant responsibilities throughout the summer, many of which I was
not prepared for at all.
However, he coached me along
the way to make sure I was always
in a position to be successful. When I
was tired or worn out, he was always
there to provide an encouraging word
or tell me to slow down and pace myself. It seemed small at the time, but
I left that summer with more confidence than ever.
Camp Longhorn and DAVID had
just provided me with my first leadership opportunity and made sure I was
successful.
Over the next few years, I spent
my summers at camp and had the
opportunity to work with some of the
best people I know. DAVID and the
older staff counselors continued to
give me more and more opportunities
and my confidence and love for camp
grew right along with it. Whether it
was speaking at Church Mountain or
providing feedback to counselors as
the Activity Director, I didn’t realize
that my time at Camp Longhorn was
preparing me for the rest of my life.
I have had the privilege of serving
as Student Body President of Texas
Tech, teaching inner-city students in
New Orleans, and now advising executives for Fortune 500 companies.
When I think back to what prepared
me for each of these, I remember
many of the lessons I learned work-
had a lasting impact on me. Camp
is supposed to be a place where you
have fun and meet new people, but
Camp Longhorn is so much more.
I had the typical camp experiences, but I also develop life-long
friendships and learned important
lessons that go far beyond a summer
at camp. Thank you CLH.
Ryan Worley
ing with David.
1. Make sure people know that
you care: No matter your name or
title, DAVID takes a genuine interest
in who you are. He asks questions
and seeks to understand because he
genuinely cares. I have used this lesson throughout my professional career. First as a teacher and now as a
consultant, I make a commitment to
get to know the people I am working with and to understand their interests and motivation. It is through
these relationships I have been able
to build the trust that is necessary to
achieve results.
2. Don’t be afraid to take a chance
on someone: DAVID’s willingness
to trust me when I was “too young”
as a JC or again as a director helped
mold me into the person I am today.
However, the impact was as much in
the “how” as the “what;” he taught
me the importance of setting expectations and providing real-time feedback to help set others up for success.
As I have progressed in my career
and had the opportunity to manage
more people, I make a point to give
my team members more responsibility and trust them to deliver, but I always start with setting expectations
then spend the extra time coaching
them along the way.
3. Sweat the details: Anyone who
has ever been around DAVID on
V-Day, knows Boys Camp will be
pristine and have the cleanest libraries in camp. As a consultant, I am
reminded every day how important
it is to stress the details and that presentation matters. I never thought I
would have learned to focus on the
details by cleaning libraries the night
before V-Day, but it is a lesson that
I now stress regularly on my project
teams.
4. Don’t be afraid to roll up your
sleeves and get your hands dirty:
Spending fist activity plunging toilets, cleaning Boys Camp, and repairing cabins is just one example of
how DAVID leads by example. DAVID taught me that no matter your
title or your role, you should always
be willing to do the “dirty work.”
Whether it’s camp, teaching, or consulting, I am regularly reminded that
the most successful people are those
willing to go the extra mile even
when it’s not glamorous.
The lessons I learned from working with DAVID and the Boys Staff
RYAN WORLEY . . Your special tribute to a very special guy is
outstanding! Anyone that has been
around DAVID BENNETT for very
long knows that all you talk about
in your article is so very true! You
are a very special person, RYAN, so
all of this wonderful writing is about
you, too! How many people get to
be Student Body President of Texas
Tech University? TEX taught all of
us to live by the Golden Rule and
you, my friend, are one of those people! RYAN, who grew up in Temple,
TX now calls Dallas home. He is in
Management Consulting. RYAN was
a Campfire Lighter, Favorite Ranger
and Favorite Counselor. Activities
Director, Swim Bay Director and Division Head were some of his duties
as a counselor through the years.
RYAN attended Texas A&M University and Texas Tech University . We
thank you so very much, RYAN, for
all of your special words and we
thank you for being such a special
person to all of us!
This is ANNA SEALE, many years a camper & now a counselor at Inks
Lake and daughter of Alumni STEVE & MARTY SEALE. ANNA is a Junior

Three amazing weeks of summer
By THURE CANNON
Growing up in a small town was
great. You certainly knew every person in your high school graduating
class and really, the entire school.
And you knew, or were at least familiar with pretty much everyone in
town because you saw them at the
grocery store or at various community events. The friendships made in
my small town were close and the
sense of pride in the community ran
deep. Camp Longhorn shares these
qualities of small town living and it
offers the opportunity to make lifelong friends for three amazing weeks
out of the summer.
A limitation of small town living is you can sometimes run out of
constructive things to do. But that
was never a concern for those three
weeks spent at Ranch Branch, now
Indian Springs. From the moment
one heard the speaker buzzing in the
morning before the blaring music
started, to the singing of Taps under
the stars, the day was full of activities, laughter and most importantly,
friendship.
Without Camp Longhorn, the
opportunity to meet people from all
across the state would have never
been possible. And those friendships
I made at Camp Longhorn have had
an overwhelming impact on my life.
Some friends made during my Rattlesnake year at Camp Longhorn
ended up becoming my fraternity
brothers in college. Other friends
made at camp, I often see them
through my work obligations. There
are very few facets of my life where I
cannot make a Camp Longhorn con-
Thure Cannon w/son Knox
nection, and that is due to those three
wonderful weeks.
Those three little weeks produced
such great memories. Hoss trail rides
to the Lifesaver Tree, the wacky Frog
Day skits, the sheer pandemonium
when the Early Bird came to the
cabin, and the belly laughing with
my cabin mates about the day. I am
unaware of any other place on earth
that can pack so much fun into so
little time. And now with my oldest
son attending camp, I have the opportunity to relive those experiences
through his eyes, which is just as fun,
if not more so, than attending camp.
Thank you Camp Longhorn for
giving me the best three weeks of
every summer, in the past and now in
the present. Attawaytogo!
These thoughts and memories
are so much fun to read, THURE
CANNON! Growing up in a small
town, THURE had many friends
and knew just about all the students
in his school. SO, Camp Longhorn
was such a special treat to see new
faces and meeting new friends . .
lifetime friends! THURE, who grew
up in Mexia, TX, was a camper for
seven years and a counselor four
years. He and wife SHANNON call
Austin home now with their two boys
KNOX CANNON (9) .. was a Rattlesnake at Indian Springs last summer
and is signed up for 2016 .. and NASH
CANNON (5) a future Rattlesnake!
THURE is President, Texas Pipeline
Association and SHANNON is State
Sales Director, Austin Convention and
Visitors Bureau. He had many awards
as a camper and counselor .. Favorite
camper, favorite Counselor, Campfire
Lighter 1986, Wendy Hayes Activity
Award, Marine General are among
the many he received. THURE was
a Staff Counselor, Mr. Carnival and
in charge of numerous activities. He
graduated from the University of Texas Austin, B.A., LBJ School of Public Affairs at the University of Texas
Austin, M.P. Aff. We thank you again,
THURE, for your wonderful thoughts
and we thank you again for taking
the time to jot down your memories!
We look forward to seeing you this
summer 2nd Term V-Day at Indian
Springs!

An Impact Far Beyond Camp
Thanks For All The Memories CLH
By CHANCE BOLTON
When first asked to write about
my experiences and memories at
CLH, a flood of images went through
my mind. Shooting a hundred feet (it
seemed at the time) in the air off the
back of the blob, whizzing down the
trolley line from the top of the tower,
and gush of water from the Ol’ Facefull hitting my face for a much needed refreshment.
These recollections are just a
small sample of the many memories of the fun and adventure. My
earliest memory was getting ready
to board the bus my first year as a
camper. Several of my friends were
headed to camp, as well. Unknown
to me at the time, my parents had
registered me to go to the Inks camp,
while my friends were headed to Indian Springs. Once I realized I was
on my own, I was nervous about the
situation. By the time we arrived at
camp, nervousness was replaced
with excitement and my hesitation
was gone.

All of the great things that I hold
dear about Camp Longhorn, the best
is just about to happen. This summer, my oldest daughter will be attending for her first year. I think my
anticipation is greater than hers. I am
so excited for her to experience the
wonderful fun, adventure, amazing
opportunities to learn and grow, and
new friendships.

Ask anyone what their favorite
activity at CLH is and it’s always the

but it is amazing how many diverse
activities are available for the campers to not only have a great time,
but also to learn how do something
new. I learned to sail, ride horseback, scuba dive, become a much
improved swimmer and play pickleNew friendships were quickly ball (a personal favorite!). It was just

It’s A Man Thing . . .
BAGPIPER AT A FUNERAL .
As a bagpiper, I play many gigs.
Recently I was asked by a funeral
director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. He had no
family or friends, so the service was
to be at a pauper’s cemetery in the
back country. As I was not familiar
with the backwoods, I got lost and,
being a typical man, I didn’t stop for
directions.
I finally arrived an hour late and
saw the funeral guy had evidently
gone and the hearse was nowhere in
sight. There were only the diggers
and crew left and they were eating
lunch. I felt badly and apologized
to the men for being late. I went
to the side of the grave and looked
down and the vault lid was already in
place. I didn’t know what else to do,
so I started to play.
The workers put down their
lunches and began to gather around.
I played out my heart and soul for
this man with no family and friends.
I played like I’ve never played before for this homeless man. And
as I played “Amazing Grace,’ the
workers began to weep. They wept,
I wept, we all wept together. When
I finished I packed up my bagpipes
and started for my car.
Though my head hung low, my
heart was full. As I opened the door
to my car, I heard one of the workers
say, “I never seen nothin’ like that
before and I’ve been putting in septic
tanks for twenty years.”
Appareptly, I’m still lost . . It’s a
man thing.
Truly A Unique Exprience . . recalling memories of Camp Longhorn
By MARK MACATEE
Recalling memories of Camp
Longhorn is easy. Composing them
is not. There are truly too many superlatives of my experience of it that
any attempt to relate an accurate picture would always fall short, at least
in my mind.
The good news though is that if
you are reading this, you already
know what I mean. You know that
Camp Longhorn is quite possibly the
greatest place on earth; that it is the
best place for a young boy or girl to
grow into a young man or woman;
that it has everything a kid could
ever want to do, see, or learn; that
each kid’s best friends are discovered there. Okay, enough hyperbole.
But my sentiments are not far off.
Though I was only a camper for
5 years (a story for another time) I
have a lifetime of memories: friends
and counselors, campfires, OD, activities, Church Mountain, cabins,
fireworks (2nd term), dance night,
carnival, merits, and even the signs
on the way in (“Honk your horn
long,” “Don’t take this road for
granite,” “Cedar tree?” etc). Even
as I write, the kid in me wants to go
back to camp again this summer under false pretenses: “Honey, I’ve got
a business trip in Central Texas in
June. It’s 3 weeks. Would you please
pack my foot locker for me?”
Mark Macatee
My first year is probably the most
memorable for me. What a new experience. My counselors were BLACK
DOG JONES, DOUG SHELDON
and SCOTT ADAMS. Being away
from home for three weeks seemed
abnormally long, especially when
you’re in a cabin with (literally) a
bunch of strangers. But I don’t ever
recall being homesick. Actually, I
think I made friends pretty quickly
(that’s probably pretty easy for an
eight-year-old boy) and I quickly
forgot about Dallas altogether. Except when the mail came. Getting
something from home was almost
the highlight of the day. It was probably just enough “home” I needed to
feel free to explore this new world.
And while V -Day was a pinnacle of
sorts, it was always tinged with a bit
of sadness, knowing that it was all
over -- at least for a whole year.
Which is why I’m so thankful
for Alumni Camp. Why should the
kids have all the fun. It’s great to
relive memories, but I think everyone who’s been to camp is still a kid
at heart and really needs a weekend
like that to reconnect with long time
friends, meet new ones, and be a
camper again for a brief moment.
Though I’m not always able to go, I
always love the continuity that exists
for Camp Longhorn.
It’s special. And it’s amazing that
the traditions born decades ago have
continued and are as “current” today
as they were then. What a tribute to
the ROBERTSONS and those who
have helped run the camp.
But more than any of that, I attribute so many life lessons to my
time at Camp Longhorn: politeness,
respect, putting others first, self-discipline, creativity, loving others,
how to have a zeal for life, the importance of remembering a person’s
name and looking them in the eye,
structure, what to do with free time,
and that since we’re born barefoot,
one should be barefoot as much as
possible.
My daughter is almost six, and
we recently went to her first Carnival. With the excitement of a dad
for his only daughter, we have been
introducing her to camp and she is
already singing the songs. I’m so
excited about the prospect of her going to Camp Longhorn -- I’m hoping
that she will want to go when it’s her
time. But more so, I’m hoping she
has a passion for it; that she eats it
up like I did.
Thanks Camp Longhorn. You’ve
impacted my life and a multitude of
others in a great way.
Attawaytogo!

My first year as a camper in ‘96
I thought I was going to camp to get
out of the house, meet new people,
and have fun before I headed back to
school. I didn’t realize that two weeks
in Burnet, Texas would change my
life forever.
As a camper, I quickly realized
that everybody was somebody. It
seems cliche, but over the past 20
years I have experienced first-hand
how that motto can change lives.
You never know what is going on in
a camper’s life when they get off the
bus, but CLH provides a place for everyone to forget what is going on in
their day-to-day lives and just have
fun for two to three weeks.
For six years, I had the opportunity to go to camp and develop lifelong friendships with other campers,
counselors and directors, before becoming a counselor. While camp has
blessed me with many friends, it was
a new director that I met that year that
continues to have a lasting impact on
the way I live my life.
When I first met DAVID BENNETT, I didn’t think much of it. As
an 11 year-old, I really liked his dog
Mason, but I wasn’t that fond of Aggies at the time. It was the next year
when he helped my twin brother
(and mom) get through his first year
of camp that I started to realize how
much he really cared about us.
As I continued as a camper, my
respect for DAVID grew. However,
it wasn’t until I became a counselor
that I got to know DAVID (and STACY) personally. Luckily for me, he
took a vested interest in my success
as a counselor and, even more importantly, as a person.
My first year as a counselor I came
back for second term as a “Super’’ JC.
DAVID took a chance and gave me
significant responsibilities throughout the summer, many of which I was
not prepared for at all.
However, he coached me along
the way to make sure I was always
in a position to be successful. When I
was tired or worn out, he was always
there to provide an encouraging word
or tell me to slow down and pace myself. It seemed small at the time, but
I left that summer with more confidence than ever.
Camp Longhorn and DAVID had
just provided me with my first leadership opportunity and made sure I was
successful.
Over the next few years, I spent
my summers at camp and had the
opportunity to work with some of the
best people I know. DAVID and the
older staff counselors continued to
give me more and more opportunities
and my confidence and love for camp
grew right along with it. Whether it
was speaking at Church Mountain or
providing feedback to counselors as
the Activity Director, I didn’t realize
that my time at Camp Longhorn was
preparing me for the rest of my life.
I have had the privilege of serving
as Student Body President of Texas
Tech, teaching inner-city students in
New Orleans, and now advising executives for Fortune 500 companies.
When I think back to what prepared
me for each of these, I remember
many of the lessons I learned work-
had a lasting impact on me. Camp
is supposed to be a place where you
have fun and meet new people, but
Camp Longhorn is so much more.
I had the typical camp experiences, but I also develop life-long
friendships and learned important
lessons that go far beyond a summer
at camp. Thank you CLH.
Ryan Worley
ing with David.
1. Make sure people know that
you care: No matter your name or
title, DAVID takes a genuine interest
in who you are. He asks questions
and seeks to understand because he
genuinely cares. I have used this lesson throughout my professional career. First as a teacher and now as a
consultant, I make a commitment to
get to know the people I am working with and to understand their interests and motivation. It is through
these relationships I have been able
to build the trust that is necessary to
achieve results.
2. Don’t be afraid to take a chance
on someone: DAVID’s willingness
to trust me when I was “too young”
as a JC or again as a director helped
mold me into the person I am today.
However, the impact was as much in
the “how” as the “what;” he taught
me the importance of setting expectations and providing real-time feedback to help set others up for success.
As I have progressed in my career
and had the opportunity to manage
more people, I make a point to give
my team members more responsibility and trust them to deliver, but I always start with setting expectations
then spend the extra time coaching
them along the way.
3. Sweat the details: Anyone who
has ever been around DAVID on
V-Day, knows Boys Camp will be
pristine and have the cleanest libraries in camp. As a consultant, I am
reminded every day how important
it is to stress the details and that presentation matters. I never thought I
would have learned to focus on the
details by cleaning libraries the night
before V-Day, but it is a lesson that
I now stress regularly on my project
teams.
4. Don’t be afraid to roll up your
sleeves and get your hands dirty:
Spending fist activity plunging toilets, cleaning Boys Camp, and repairing cabins is just one example of
how DAVID leads by example. DAVID taught me that no matter your
title or your role, you should always
be willing to do the “dirty work.”
Whether it’s camp, teaching, or consulting, I am regularly reminded that
the most successful people are those
willing to go the extra mile even
when it’s not glamorous.
The lessons I learned from working with DAVID and the Boys Staff
RYAN WORLEY . . Your special tribute to a very special guy is
outstanding! Anyone that has been
around DAVID BENNETT for very
long knows that all you talk about
in your article is so very true! You
are a very special person, RYAN, so
all of this wonderful writing is about
you, too! How many people get to
be Student Body President of Texas
Tech University? TEX taught all of
us to live by the Golden Rule and
you, my friend, are one of those people! RYAN, who grew up in Temple,
TX now calls Dallas home. He is in
Management Consulting. RYAN was
a Campfire Lighter, Favorite Ranger
and Favorite Counselor. Activities
Director, Swim Bay Director and Division Head were some of his duties
as a counselor through the years.
RYAN attended Texas A&M University and Texas Tech University . We
thank you so very much, RYAN, for
all of your special words and we
thank you for being such a special
person to all of us!

Three amazing weeks of summer
By THURE CANNON
Growing up in a small town was
great. You certainly knew every person in your high school graduating
class and really, the entire school.
And you knew, or were at least familiar with pretty much everyone in
town because you saw them at the
grocery store or at various community events. The friendships made in
my small town were close and the
sense of pride in the community ran
deep. Camp Longhorn shares these
qualities of small town living and it
offers the opportunity to make lifelong friends for three amazing weeks
out of the summer.
A limitation of small town living is you can sometimes run out of
constructive things to do. But that
was never a concern for those three
weeks spent at Ranch Branch, now
Indian Springs. From the moment
one heard the speaker buzzing in the
morning before the blaring music
started, to the singing of Taps under
the stars, the day was full of activities, laughter and most importantly,
friendship.
Without Camp Longhorn, the
opportunity to meet people from all
across the state would have never
been possible. And those friendships
I made at Camp Longhorn have had
an overwhelming impact on my life.
Some friends made during my Rattlesnake year at Camp Longhorn
ended up becoming my fraternity
brothers in college. Other friends
made at camp, I often see them
through my work obligations. There
are very few facets of my life where I
cannot make a Camp Longhorn con-
Thure Cannon w/son Knox
nection, and that is due to those three
wonderful weeks.
Those three little weeks produced
such great memories. Hoss trail rides
to the Lifesaver Tree, the wacky Frog
Day skits, the sheer pandemonium
when the Early Bird came to the
cabin, and the belly laughing with
my cabin mates about the day. I am
unaware of any other place on earth
that can pack so much fun into so
little time. And now with my oldest
son attending camp, I have the opportunity to relive those experiences
through his eyes, which is just as fun,
if not more so, than attending camp.
Thank you Camp Longhorn for
giving me the best three weeks of
every summer, in the past and now in
the present. Attawaytogo!

By JENNIFER CRIDER MISKOVSKY
My sister STACY and I spent
many wonderful summers in the hill
country visiting my grandparents
in Marble Falls, going to Natural
Bridge Caverns, the Lyndon B. Johnson National Park, and tubing down
the Guadalupe River. We seemed to
hit the same “hot spots” every year
but loved the steamy Texas summers, cooling off in the lakes during
the day and catching fireflies at night.
When I was 8, my parents informed
my sister and I that we would be going to Camp Longhorn for 2 weeks
in the summer instead of spending
the time at my grandparents home.
We did our best to contain our enthusiasm but were more than thrilled
with the change in routine!
I remember pulling into the CL
gates that August morning, my
stomach filled with excitement and
butterflies! It felt like we drove for
hours down that long, winding road,
reading all of the silly signs along the
way. We unloaded our heavy trunks
and made our way to the cabins. We
could not take our eyes off of the interior of the cabins and the multiple
layers of paint canvassed with wall
plaques listing all of the campers
and counselors who had come before
us. I had never seen so many bunkbeds in one room. I lugged my trunk
across the concrete floor to a lower
bunk and began making my bed and
getting settled in. I changed into my
Camp Longhorn t-shirt and navy
shorts with white piping and began
searching the water for the orange,
blue and white floating pillow, the
infamous blob! How long would I
have to wait before testing it out?
Next, it was off to the Hummer
Up cabin to get my sister unpacked.
I remember being envious of her
second story cabin, thinking of the
fun she would have running up and
down the ramp for the next 2 weeks.
Thankfully, my day would come as I
was a Hummer Up my second year
at camp.
There are so many vivid memories and traditions that flood my
mind when thinking of CL. The delicious food served on those metal
trays at the Chow Hall, KP, Church
Mountain, snack time, mail call, the
blob, the mile swim, petting zoo,
archery, the milkshake, old faceful,
campfire lighters, the silly skits we
created using only butcher paper and
styrofoam props, feeling an immediate bond with my counselors, falling
asleep to the sounds of crickets and
the water lapping the sides of the
floating cabins.
We spent 2 summers attending
4th term and then chose to extend
our camp experience by moving to
2nd term. We had the time of our life.
We made great friends, gained confidence, independence and self worth.
We found great joy and comfort in
returning year after year.
Fast forward to 2010 in Corpus
Christi, Texas. I decided to take our
girls, SARAH and ELLA to their
first carnival. They were only 3
and 4 at the time but I thought they
were ready for their introduction to
CL. Although the video and games
Chris & Jennifer Crider Miskovsky with their girls
Ella (l) & Sarah
peeked their interest, they were most
interested in winning prizes. We continued to go year after year, eventually taking them to V-day in 2012
when they were 5 and 7. It was time
for the family to see this amazing
place in person.
It was so refreshing to return
to Main and see that nothing had
changed. My girls were amused
with the signs leading into camp, the
colorful cabins that had a few more
coats of paint and the infamous blob.
We were surrounded by decorated
suburbans and reunions between
parents and their kids. Everyone was
smiling.
My husband, Chris, commented
on how refreshing it was to see a
place that was so authentic; a place
that focused on the true purpose of
camp.
We returned to the Wren cabin
where it all began and stood looking
at all of the plaques. I was surprised
when the woman standing next to me
studying the same plaque was in fact
one of my cabin mates from 4th term
of 1983. What a small world!
In 2013, we moved to Frisco and
continued attending carnivals. Many
of the people we met through school
spoke of another summer camp, always using the tagline, “Everybody
goes there. The girls will know everyone in their cabin!”
Most parents would find comfort
in that statement but it had the opposite effect on me. We wanted our
girls to go to a new place with new
faces. We wanted them to make new
friends and build new relationships.
It wasn’t until the carnival in January 2015 that as we left, my girls
asked which term they would be
attending. I was ecstatic that they
were now ready! I immediately sent
their applications to BILL, contacting him regularly to make sure we
could secure a spot for the both of
them. I wanted my girls to have this
experience together as Stacy and I
had. They did not have room available that summer so we decided to
consider C3 for 2016. STACY BENNETT was so kind and accommodating.
They have plans to attend third
term at C3 this coming summer. Not
only will they embark on a new ad-
venture but they will be part of a new
tradition as the first class of campers
at C3!

PS the answer to the merit question is a humming bird, thanks Tex I
never forgot!
By LUCI PIPES BELL
We are family, these three little
words have never meant more as
I reflect on my time spent at Camp
Longhorn. As a former camper and a
parent of a brand new camper I have
really thought about Camp Longhorn
and all that it means.
In 1983, I boarded the bus feeling
so confident having just finished 2nd
grade and waved happily to my parents as we departed making our way
to Inks Lake. I knew what I was doing I had visited the summer before
on V-day. I even had my interview
with TEX, I can still remember the
merit question I missed, “Name the
only bird that can fly backwards?” I
still have never forgotten the answer
and even prepped our daughter for
that tricky question this past summer
for her interview. I knew the delights
that were waiting for me, the blob,
the water socks, canoeing, archery,
arts & crafts, swim bay, dance nights,
carnival and the list goes on. I could
hardly wait to step off the bus and
start having fun.
On the first bus ride, I remember
having Church’s friend chicken and
learning the songs of Camp Longhorn
and earning merits along the way.
When we made the hairpin turn off
of the old bridge and the bus roared
with excitement, as we were getting
close, I could hardly wait. The first
few campers stepped off the bus and
their names were shouted with glee as
their cabins were announced. I could
hardly wait for my turn and there it
was; LUCI PIPES is a Wren! I had
no idea that these friends would be
my new family for the next 3 weeks
and years to come.
The counselors hugged and greeted me and made me feel welcome
and we made our way to the cabin.
I remember going in and choosing a
bunk and finding my very first merit pin attached to the mattress and
counting the five merits that were
given to me. Oh the pride I felt when I
first pinned them onto my shorts. The
rest of the day flew by and the Wren
cabin started to fill up completely, 13
campers and 3 counselors, The Wren
cabin had become my home away
from home, friends I had just met
were now like sisters and we were
doing everything together. In three
weeks time, the 13 of us who were
away from home for the first time had
really bonded, we did all of our activities together, ate in the chow hall,
played old maid and ended our days
together with camp fire and the Lords
prayer each and every day, we had
become a family.
The next year I anxiously awaited
to return back to camp and greet all
of my old friends, the friendships had
not changed and we were meeting
new friends along the way. As I look
back at the original group who started as Wrens and those who finished
along side as Chiefs, there were 10 of
us, which is pretty amazing.
Once the camping days were over,
I was not certain the next time I would
see my friends. It came sooner than
I thought When I was a freshman at
TCU going through rush, the names,
the girls, I knew so many, it was like
coming home. There was a bond of
Reunion
Luci Pipes Bell
recognition and laughs shared about
CLH days, an instant family away
from home!
After college I had the same experience of meeting more friends
from Camp Longhorn, even though
we didn’t know each other, there
was a connection from Camp Longhorn and a new life long friendship
formed. Many years ago I moved
back to my home town and was invited into a book club, a little nervous about meeting new friends I set
out for our very first meeting, and of
15 people in the group, one of them
was an original from my Wren Cabin, wow family again! Not to mention 3 new friends had also gone to
Longhorn.
This summer we are sending our
daughter off to the new C3. She has
asked millions of questions and I
keep telling her some of the greatest friends and memories will come
from the special place on Ink’s Lake.
LUCI PIPES BELL .. what a
great story about Family! The Camp
Longhorn family! Family is never far away! It’s the reunions with
“old” family and meeting new family along the way! Camp is more
than just the activities .. it’s making
lifelong friends and wherever one
goes there is bound to be a Camp
Longhorner in the crowd! LUCI, a
10 year camper from San Antonio,
lives there now with husband SETH
and daughter LUCILE BELL (new
camper 2nd Term at C3 this coming
summer) . She is a certified Etiquette
Consultant teaching students 1-12th
grade and adults. Husband SETH is
an attorney in San Antonio . . Law office of SETH K. BELL. LUCI attended the Inks Lake Camp for 10 years
and we are proud to say she was a
Campfire Lighter at the Inks Lake
mini-camp! She attended TCU and
mentioned that they are excited to be
a part of the inaugural summer of C3
. . what a special place! We look forward to seeing you V-Day 2nd Term
at C3, LUCI, and thanks again for
your special writing!
A great reunion in Port Aransas, TX . . .

Counting twelve years of fun at Camp
By HAL ten BRINK
My best friend went to Camp
Longhorn and, of course, I needed to
try it out.
I started Camp third term 1963. I
was a little older than most 1st year
campers and started in Cabin 11 Buffaloes. We had a great counselor,
TOM TEMPLE ALLEN. The counselor in the next door Cabin 10 was
GUICH KOOCK. Of course I was
immediately hooked and had a great
first year.
I was very fortunate to have great
counselors including DICK WHITE
for two years and got invited back
each year. l was from Houston and
met a number of friends at Camp
who I continue to see to this day.
After V-Day my third year, I left
Camp and my family moved to New
York with my father’s job. For me,
it was a difficult transition, but one
thing that helped the most was I
knew I would be going to Camp the
next summer. After another year as a
camper, Wrangler, I was fortunate to
get invited back as a counselor.
As a counselor, I had the best job I
could imagine. I loved working with
the campers and doing things I loved
to do, especially sailing and ski-
Hal ten Brink
ing. Working the sailing tower was
challenging at times, but it was fun
helping campers navigate the waters
of Inks Lake. Driving a ski boat and
seeing the excitement of campers
getting up on skis or slaloming for
the first time was very satisfying. All
the while working for RAY FRADY
and BILL JOHNSON was educational because of their unique abilities to
run the best Camp in the world. With
their senses of humor, Camp work
was fun. Even when I was caught a
little off track, I was confronted with
a sly and amusing remark pointing
out the problem; never anger.
After two more years, I was ready
for college. Fortunately, I was able
to get into he University of Texas.
Finally, after four years, I was back
in Texas for good. I went back to
Camp for five more incredible years
as a counselor. I had many really fine
campers and lots of fun. In fact, most
of the campers were so much fun to
be around it never seemed like a job,
just a fun place to spend the summer.
One thing that stands out in my mind
is story time at night.
My favorite was the story of JOSIAH WILBARGER, handed down
by J. FRANK DOBIE. I heard this
story as a camper and told it to all my
campers. I hope the campers enjoyed
Camp and all it had to offer as much
as I did.
As with all good things, it finally
ended. I was in law school and my
new wife could not be talked into
going with me another year. Later,
my son, SAM ten BRINK, did go for
twelve years as well and I got to at
least visit Camp and attend alumni
camp.
It Is still the best job 1 ever had.
HAL ten BRINK .. You are a great
story teller! Your memories and
thoughts of your years here at Camp
are so much fun to read. The counselors you had are pretty famous!! And,
what more could a counselor want to
teach besides skiing and sailing and
you were sooo good at it! HAL grew
up in Houston and then New York and
after the move he knew that he could
count on camp and that trip back
to Texas each summer! HAL was a
camper for four years and counselor 8 years . . all at Inks Lake . . He
is an attorney in Austin, recently retired from the State of Texas and wife,
BARBARA, is a science educator.
Son, SAM, who is 31 years old was
a camper and counselor at Inks Lake
for twelve years. A Campfire Lighter
several years, HAL, was in charge
of sailing for many, many years as a
Counselor. A graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, B.A., Government, he attended St. Mary’s University School of Law, J.D. We thank you
again, HAL, for your special story
and we thank you for taking the time
from a busy schedule to jot down your
thoughts and memories! WE APPRECIATE YOU!

We‛re back . . another camper heading to CLH
By GALEN BEVERIDGE
RECKLING
It was hard to organize my
thoughts about Camp longhorn,
probably because my family has such
a long history with camp. My mother,
MARCIA MURRAY BEVERIDGE,
and her family’s time at camp date
back close to the beginning of when
TEX and PAT started their camp on
the shores of Inks lake. My mother
told us TEX and PAT were in Dallas
(where my mother is from) recruiting campers and counselors for their
new camp and that is how she started as one of the first girl counselors
the year girls started going to camp.
(I believe camp was all boys when it
first started.)
Her brothers, MIKE and JEFF
MURRAY were campers also (we
found Uncle MIKE’s plaque dated
1947 still hanging at camp) so we still
aren’t sure what year they started. My
mother’s sister, (my namesake), GALEN MURRAY also attended camp.
As a child, my mom always told me
and my siblings lots of stories about
camp and how many fond memories
that she had. Stories about campfire,
swim bay, Church Mountain and the
ghosts of Camp Longhorn.
She always talked lovingly about
TEX and PAT, BILL and MF JOHNSON, RAY and HELEN FRADY,
BOB HUDSON and BOB TARLTON to name a few.
When my parents married they
lived in Houston and started their
family in 1963. I was the oldest of
four and money was tight so my
mom had to convince my dad to start
saving up so they could start sending
us to camp so we could experience
camp like she did. We did not go on
big family trips in the summers, but
by the time I was 12 they had saved
enough for me and some of my siblings to start camp.
We always went 2nd term and
I started as a Quail in the Big Bonnet division. My sisters BROOKE
BEVERIDGE BASS and ALEX
BEVERIDGE DAVID, as well as
our brother DAVID BEVERIDGE
all finally were campers. My sister,
BROOKE’s kids - KELSEY, MICHAEL and GRACE (who will be a
chief this summer) all attended camp.
My cousins on my mother’s side of
the family also send their kids to
camp now, too.
Camp to me, was FAR BETIER
than any trip I could of ever gone on!
I looked forward to camp every summer until I was a Wrangler Chief and
then I was a counselor for one summer. When my three weeks at camp
was over every summer, I went into
a slump because those were the best
days of my life! As a side note, and
a funny story .. My sister, BROOKE
and I ran against each other for Queen
one summer and I won. We still laugh
about that (sibling rivalry)!
As for me, I got married to my
high school sweetheart, STEPHEN
RECKLING, who never went to
camp, the summer I graduated from
SMU in 1986. We started our family
in 1987 and welcomed a boy, STEPHEN, JR. (now 28), then the next
year, another boy, MATTHEW (now
27), and another .. BRYANT (now
25) and four years later, HUNTER
A Fourth generation Camp Longhorn Legacy story
By MORGAN TARLTON
POLLY
Galen & Stephen Recking with their family . . Matthew & Caroline,
Stephen, Jr., Bryant, Hunter and John Patrick.
Right - This picture, taken March 2006 in Houston, was the front
cover of the neighborhood news featuring Galen and her four boys .
. Stephen, Jr., Matthew, Bryant and Hunter . . with their trunks getting
ready for some great fun-in-the-sun at Camp Longhorn.
(now 21). I, like my mom, wanted my children to go to camp, so
as soon as they had completed 2nd
grade they all became campers.
When our three oldest sons were
teenagers they all played select, year
around baseball, so summers were
spent at baseball tournaments with
hopes of squeezing in a three week
term for camp. Our second son, MATIHEW was a pitcher at Rice University from 2008-2012 and then was
drafted by the LA Dodgers where he
played in their system for 2 years
and then married a Camp Longhorn
(Indian Springs) girl, CAROLINE
FARMER from Austin.
When our oldest son, STEPHEN,
was 20 and our youngest son, HUNTER, was 12 God blessed us with, yet,
another son .. JOHN PATRICK who
is now old enough to attend camp for
the first time this summer!
So we are BACK!! Needless to
say I am thrilled to be sending another camper to camp this summer and
we are looking forward to all of JP’s
stories about camp on V-day. Hopefully we will have some grand kids
soon and they will be campers, too ..
Maybe I will finally get back to the
girls camp!!
and Camp Longhorn. GALEN comes
from a Camp Longhorn, Camp Longhorn, Camp Longhorn family filled
with many, many years of fun here
on the shores of Inks Lake and lots
of fond memories passed down from
generation to generation. And now,
GALEN and husband STEPHEN
“ARE BACK” with young son JOHN
PATRICK (known as JP) coming
for the first time this summer! Their
four other boys, STEPHEN, JR (28),
GALEN BEVERIDGE RECK- MATTHEW (27), BRYANT (25) and
LING .. what an interesting article! HUNTER (21), are all CLH exes and
It‘s a history lesson of your family daughter-in-law, CAROLINE FARM-
Kudos To Camp Longhorn
ER, who is married to MATTHEW, is
also a CLH Indian Springs ex! GALEN’s camping years were in the
70’s and she was a counselor for one
year. Husband STEPHEN is a money manager with SOLIENT PARTNERS and GALEN is a BUSY mom!
A Campfire lighter many times, she
was Queen in 1976. GALEN graduated from SMU! What a great MOM,
taking care of a household of guys ..
and what a great story . . You are truly a CLH Girl!

As our son, ELI, prepares for his
first summer at Indian Springs, it
seems to be the appropriate time to
reminisce about our family legacy at
Camp Longhorn. My great uncle was
BOB TARLTON. Yes, that BOB - the
one famous in my mind for campfrre
stories told with only the light of his
cigarette visible. My dad is KENNO
TARLTON, longtime camper and
counselor who still wears his Longhorn ring today. I was sent to Ranch
Branch at the age of 8 very aware of
the legacy before me, yet unaware
of the effect Camp Longhorn would
have on me for the rest of my life.
When NAN MANNING called
my name as we got out of our car
during ELI’s camp visit this past
summer, it reminded me of the first
day of camp stepping off the bus
to hear NAN announce my home
for the next 3 weeks. As I breathed
in the familiar air, I was amazed at
how much camp looked exactly as I
remembered it and nevertheless had
changed and grown in just the right
way. The rock climbing wall may
have replaced rappelling down the
side of the chow hall, but Uno cards
were still scattered across a cabin
floor. I was overjoyed to see the look
of awe on ELI’s face as he saw Indian
Springs for the frrst time.
My dad and I have been telling
ELI stories for years about the experiences, friends, and adventures
that Longhorn provides. I sang CLH
campfire songs as lullabies when
ELI was a baby. (After TAPS, Linger, and a few others, he would still
be awake and the only slow one left
I could remember was “Oh, they
built the ship Titanic to sail the ocean
blue.” Not exactly the best newborn
song!) We’ve told him about the activities - swimming, archery, riflery,
tennis, blob, wildlife, snorkeling, etc.
ELI is surprised I know how to play
pickleball and water polo because of
camp. I do admit that I still casually mention my canoe activity award
more often than I should. My dad has
talked about his lifelong friends from
camp- RED DOG JONE, GARDNER PARKER, and BILL GREENHILL. And, of course, we have told
him about his great-great uncle BOB
flying the gumdrop plane.
There are so many wonderful
friends and counselors whose names
make me smile as I remember those
summers. From my fellow Ponies
HILLARY McDONALD and SHELLEY WATSON to my Chief girls
LISA GUAJARDO and NICOLE
HENRICH to SUSAN COOPER,
SHANNON ELLIOTT, and KELLI
RICOTTILLI and the many others
in between as well as the counselors including BETH HAIRSTON,
HEATHER McGOWAN, LACY
SMITH, ASHLEY BALCH, MOLLY QUIRK, MARILYN AMIS,
CATHY CASTLE and ASHLEY
OLLINGER. Lastly, AMY SCOTT
who was my first big sister, my cabin counselor 2 separate times, and
fmally activity director when I was
a counselor.
Camp Longhorn didn’t just provide me with new friends as a camp-
awaited the letter in October with an
acceptance, and now prepare to pack
their trunks for 3 glorious weeks!
PRESTON BROWN’s article in
LumNews last year was a fantastic
look into the restlessness of wanting
your child to love CLH as much as
you. PRESTON was counselor when
I was a camper which made it more
poignant. It even helped my husband, BRYAN, who never attended
sleep-away camp, understand the
pull Longhom has on us and our
deep desire for our own children to
attend.
Morgan Tarlton Polly w/son Eli
er, but it has also bonded me more
with my friend LEIGH WITTENBRAKER JONES who was an Inks
Lake camper during the same years I
was at Indian Springs. Although we
didn’t meet until our children attended the same elementary school, we
realized our CLH connection at the
Fort Worth Carnival a few years ago.
How wonderful it was to have another alumni be nervous with me when
we applied for our children in the
early rooming on June 1st, anxiously
through! And how could anyone
forget your great uncle BOB TARLTON and his famous JANIE stories
at Campfire. And then there is your
Dad, KENNO TARLTON . . . a very
popular camper and counselor at
Inks Lake for many years. You have
sooo many wonderful connections
to both camps it was an easy choice
for you to choose Longhorn .. as a
camper 1982 - 1990 and 1991 as
a counselor, all at Indian Springs.
MORGAN had several hometowns
growing up . . Albuquerque .. Atlanta, GA .. Ft. Worth and now lives in
Ft. Worth with husband BRYAN and
Parents always ask me “How can son ELI (7). ELI will be a camper
you possibly send him to sleep-away
camp for 3 weeks?!?” Easy answerIt’s his time to experience the magic
of Church Mountain, the thrill of fmding arrowheads at cookouts, the fun
of trying new activities, the excitement of Carnival Night, the laughter
of campfire skits, and the exhilaration of finishing the mile swim and
then eating catfish for lunch. We are
truly blessed to have our 4th generation continue this family legacy.
MORGAN TARLTON POLLY .
. .What a great story teller you are!
Love your thoughts and memories
. The many people you mention are
Camp Longhorners through and
(Rattlesnake) 2nd term this coming
summer at Indian Springs. MORGAN
is a bookkeeper for a movie production company and other clients and
husband BRYAN is a landscape designer who absolutely noticed the
greenhouses at the front of Indian
Springs this past summer! MORGAN
was a Campfire Lighter many years,
Wrangler Favorite in 1999 and won
numerous Activity Awards as a camper. She attended TCU and graduated
from Kennesaw University in Georgia. We thank you again, MORGAN,
for such an interesting story and we
look forward to seeing you V-Day 2nd
Term at Indian Springs!
DR. CHRISTOPHER SPRADLEY

He was a very popular doctor that
specialized in Pulmonary, Critical
Care and Sleep Medicine at Scott
& White Hospital, Texas A&M
Health Science Center. He was
also very popular and an avid believer and supporter of the Village
of Salado.

FIESTA!
By DARBY TAYLOR BERRA
This is ERIN and Alumni CLAYTON HARRISON enjoying Fiesta ‘16 in San Antonio. Thanks, ERIN & CLAYTON, for sharing
this special picture!
To the next generation . . .
By KAREN EVANS BRYANT
When HELEN FRADY asked me
to contribute to the alumni newsletter I was very excited to share my
thoughts on Camp Longhorn. I attended 1st term for nine years and
served two summers as a counselor.
Needless to say, I LOVED camp. My
experiences at camp and the friends
I made had such a positive impact on
my life that I couldn’t wait to give
my children the opportunity to experience the same.
That time has arrived and this
summer we will be sending our 8
year old boy, WALKER, to camp.
WALKER is both excited and a little
nervous, but I have been sharing stories and pictures from old annuals to
give him a little taste of what to expect. For me, camp was a time where
you were able to escape from what
seems to be the mundane routine of
life and have fun!
What camp also allows is a level
of independence that I believe is so
important for children to learn early
in life. I have no doubt WALKER
will have the same positive experiences as a camper in cabin 0 that I
had as a wren. I can’t wait to hear his
stories of his favorite activities, new
friends, the beauty of church mountain, and the grueling mile swim!
My hope is that he recognizes camp
is not just something that fills three
weeks out of his summer, but that it
is a special place where the golden
rule is paramount and cabin mates
become life long friends.
KAREN EVANS BRYANT, thank
you so much for your story! It’s
many years of Camp Longhorn . . .
. a great summary of your time spent
on the shores of Inks Lake and now
your son WALKER will soon be here
to experience the same things you
loved several years back! The faces
Karen Evans Bryant
have mostly changed but every day
routines have changed very little ..
Chow, Rest Period, Church Mtn.,
Dance Nite, Campfire and on and on
are just some of the activities WALKER will be writing home about!
KAREN was a camper for nine years
and two years as a counselor. All at
Inks Lake. She grew up in San Antonio and lives there now with CLH
Alumni husband JEFF and their
four children . . . WALKER (8) will
be a camper at Inks Lake this coming summer, WESTON (6), ELIZABETH (3) and EMILIA (3 months)
.. all future campers! KAREN is a
Healthcare Executive/Mother of 4
children! As a camper, she enjoyed
being a Campfire Lighter! KAREN
has a Bachelors degree from SMU
and her Masters is from Trinity University. We thank you again, KAREN,
for taking the time from a very tight
schedule to jot down your wonderful thoughts and memories .. a great
story! We look forward to seeing you
this summer V-Day, 2nd Term!
This year I had the opportunity
to take my children ELLIE (5) and
TAYLOR (4) to the Camp Longhorn
carnival for the first time when it
came to Austin. I was so excited to
introduce them to NAN and to the
camp I love so much. When we left
the carnival in between licks of her
candy cigar, ELLIE said, “Well I am
going to go to Camp Longhorn one
day!” It made my heart so happy because Camp Longhorn holds such a
special place in my heart.
I made so many great friendships
and memories in the seven years I
was a camper and three years I was
a counselor. I can still remember
boarding the bus in Houston for my
first year of camp in 1989. I was off
to 2nd term at Indian Springs, and so
nervous to be away from home for
three full weeks! I remember getting
off the bus and ASHLEY and NAN
announcing, “This is DARBY, and
she is a Palomino!” My counselors
and cabin mates were waiting and
cheering for me. I was immediately
at ease, and from there my journey
began.
It seems like just yesterday I was
there. I have so many fond memories
from camp. I remember hiking to
church mountain and sitting watching the sky on fire as the sun set
while we waited for the friendship
flash. I remember the excitement
for the BLOB, the trolley, and frog
day. Playing tetherball before chow
time, singing “Taps” at the end of
campfire, dance night with fireworks
on the 4th of July, gumdrop day, the
carnival and getting married. I remember wanting to place so badly in
the mile swim, and finally succeeding my Marina year! And who from
second term could forget MIKE ROBLES, TIM DAWSON and ROB
SAYLES performing “Another One
Bites the Dust” on skit night?
The list of memories could go on
and on, and the traditions that camp
offers are so amazing, but one of the
best things about camp to me is the
friendships that are made. I have
some life long friends from CLH
who I still see, some more often than
others, and Camp Longhorn always
comes up in conversation when we
are together. It means so much to
so many people because it is such
a special place. You share so much
together, and to this day when I meet
someone who went to Camp Longhorn we immediately have a special
connection and common bond. Everybody truly is somebody at Camp
Longhorn.
I can honestly say Camp Longhorn helped make me a better person. I learned so much from camp
and the people around me. Camp
teaches you so many great life lessons, like how to get along with people, using your manners, and being
independent and doing things for
yourself. It truly shapes you as an
individual, and prepares you for life.
I look forward to the day my
children hopefully begin their adventures at CLH, and the memories
and friendships they will make. I
still sing them to sleep with campfire
songs, and so it is funny how looking
at them in the backseat on the drive
home from the carnival in my rear-
Darby Taylor Berra
view mirror I thought, wow, life has
come full circle, and I couldn’t feel
more blessed.
DARBY TAYLOR BERRA .. what
a special writing! Included are the
names of so many wonderful people!
The special activities and traditions
you mention are favorites of many!
And, of course, the BLOB usually
tops the list! We are so happy you
had the opportunity to bring your
children to the Austin Carnival to
enjoy the movies, play the games and
even enjoy a sticky candy “cigar”!
DARBY grew up in Houston and now
lives in Austin with husband DAN
and their two children ELLIE (5)
and TAYLOR (4), both future Indian
Springs Campers!
She was a camper for seven years
and counselor three years at Indian
Springs. DARBY is one busy MOM!
Besides being a Morn and homemaker (she says she is CEO/BERRA household!), she is a substitute
teacher. DARBY is very involved
with her children’s schools, church
and volunteer through the Jr. League
of Austin. She chaired the Dell Children’s Hospital Miracle Book this
year for the Children’s hospital, and
just joined the Elizabeth Ann Seton
Board! Husband DAN is Founder/
CEO of Pivotal Analytics. She was
Marina Favorite in ‘94, a campfire lighter many times and a top 5
mile swimmer! DARBY loved being
a counselor at CLH! She graduated
frorn Washington and Lee University
.. class of 2002! We thank you over
and over again, DARBY for such a
special writing and we look forward
to seeing you sometime with your
children when they come to camp for
a visit!

ATTAWAYTOGO DON FROG & MO JACKSON . . .
What a pleasure and honor it
is to jot down some important
information about DON( FROG)
and CARO(MO) THOMPSON
JACKSON .. our newest ATTAWAYTOGO Recipients! It is a
wonderful and adventurous life
these two have had together!
DON started his camping career
in the late 40’s or early 50’s and
continued off and on until 1971.
MO’s journey started in 1961 as
a camper in the Coot cabin and
as a counselor, she continued for
many years 1966-1969 and 1971.
DON and MO met here at
camp .. girls swim bay to be exact and that was in 1968. DON
was already in the Navy and just
stopped by to help a few days ..
before camp started that summer. DON FROG resigned from
the Navy, married MO February
1, 1969 and on February 3, 1969
started a new job as a pilot with
American Airlines.
In 1971 they came to camp as
a family .. dogs and all .. for their
last time as counselors! They had
many moves through the years as
DON flew for American Airlines
over 30 years, finally settling
down in Rockport, TX in 1997.
Adventure is still a big part of
their lives. In 2003 they traveled
from the tip of Texas to Maine
and back to the Chesapeake in
their 36 ft. Grand Banks trawler
and 2007 bought an Airstream
trailer and headed to Alaska.
Gunnison, CO is a favorite place
for DON’s fishing and MO’s
painting. Through his flying years
and after introducing himself
from the cockpit, people often
sent notes to the cockpit asking if
he was DON FROG from Camp
Longhorn and he is still referred
to as “FROG” by many.
They now split their time between Rockport and Ft. Worth
so they can spend time with son
MATT and daughter BLAIR and
her husband WADE CHAPPELL
and grandchildren .. CAROLINE
(6) and SUTHERLAND (3) .. future campers! Both MATT and
BLAIR were campers and counselors for many, many years.
MO’s time, when not with
grandchildren, is spent with the
Rockport Art Center, Art Festival, The Odyssey After School
Enrichment Program and is a
member of Wind Way Gallery.
Don loves his time hunting and
fishing and both are active in their
church.
Many different thoughts and
contributions come to mind when
thinking about FROG and MO
through their years here at camp
..

Alumni Camp Organizer
MO so eloquently sums up
their love affair with Camp Longhorn through the years ..
“It is a place we both loved
as a child .. college age .. lived
through it with our children who
loved it and continue to act as
unofficial ambassadors. We hope
our next generation will get their
“early bird” and be a part of a
tradition that in our opinion unequaled anywhere. After reading
the book about TEX .. I got it ..
I realized how he got us to do
all those things that you thought
you couldn’t do! Camp gave us
a chance to be a better people
and I have lived with my favorite
counselor for 47 years!”
We are SOOO DELIGHTED
and SOOO HAPPY that MO and
DON FROG are our newest ATTAWAYTOGO recipients and are
looking forward to their return
to camp this coming summer to
claim their “forever tree”!

Honoring TEX!
Friday afternoon (April 1st) . . a
Grand Re-Opening of the TEX ROBERTSON AQUATIC CENTER at
the YMCA of the Highland Lakes at
Galloway-Hammond was celebrated!
Many in the large crowd were former
swimmers, divers and coaches who
came to view the spectacular Swimming and Diving exhibition by our local swimmers, as well as World and National
Champions to honor the legacy of TEX and the history of
Burnet Swimming. Both pools have been replastered and
the pool deck is restored to its original condition to when it
was completed in 1998. The year-around swim team, called
“Tex’s Waves” in honor of TEX now has almost 50 swimmers and is growing. The pool is also home to many Seton
physical therapy patients, recreational swimmers and regular
water aerobics classes.
Thank you, BILL ROBERTSON, for taking such a
LARGE PART IN SUCH A SUCCESSFUL AND NEEDED
PROJECT.

at least 2 years and signed for a
3rd year! If you are not an up-todate ‘16 CLASP member but are
eligible and interested in mini-camp,
please add $15.00 for singles or
$20.00 for married couples to your
mini-camp tuition. Mini-camp is a
party but a party without alcohol.
We have mini-camp for the blobs,
water socks, Lazy River, Rio Flojo,
friends, good food and all the other
activities. SOOO, if you can’t control the situation and wait until your
“night off” (after mini-camp campfire) for that alcoholic beverage,
then mini-camp is not the place for
you. We want you to enjoy Camp
the same way you enjoyed it when
you were here in years past.
We are looking forward to another wonderful summer with our special campers and counselors and we
are looking forward to hearing from
you with your interesting stories,
pictures and letters.
AND, AGAIN, WE HOPE YOU
CAN JOIN US August 13/14 AT
INKS LAKE or INDIAN SPRINGS
for some great FUN at our 2016
mini-camps!
A note to all our minicamp “campers” . .
As
ex-campers,
WE
LOVE THOSE WONDERFUL MATTRESSES and
BUNK BEDS! But, not so for
many spouses! SO, if coming to mini-camp and spending the night in a motel close
by makes all happy, we are
for it, too! Check the CLH
website .. camplonghorn.
com . . for places to stay in
the area! Sunday morning,
breakfast will be at 8:00 am
at both camps before leaving for Church Mountain at
9:00 am.
The year is 1967 . .
The caption under the picture in
the annual reads . .

GATHER UP THEIR FIVE!”

CLASP ON TO THE MEMORIES
CLASP MINI-CAMP
APPLICATION ENCLOSED
CHANGES ARE COMING!! But It‛s All Good . . .
Dear Special Friends,
Spring is a wonderful time of the
year! With our much needed rain, it
has finally come down in barrels and
more barrels! The lakes are full, the
grass is green, all of these wonderful
oak trees are spreading their glorious
blooms all over the place and the
camps will soon be ready to greet
those excited and energetic campers!
The wonderful friendships will be
rekindled and new friendships made
the first few hours at all the camps!
We are excited June 7th is almost
here!
C.L.A.S.P. (Camp Longhorn
Alumni and Special Parents) has
had a good and busy year! We
have so many great things to look
forward to! V-Day parking, with lots
of story telling and fun is enjoyed
by all when picking up campers
on V-Day. CLASP mini-camps are
always the last day of 4th Term and
a great way to end the summer. In
just a few short weeks the whirlwind of summer will begin. After
the summer’s end we start thinking
about and looking forward to the
Camp Longhorn Carnivals that start
in November!
Our V-Day parking schedule remains the same as in past summers.
It seems to be working with parents
paying their up-to-date CLASP dues
so they can have that special place
on the airstrips in the early morning
hours of V-DAY! This year “parking
passes” will be mailed in mid-May
to eligible CLASP Members so just
hang your “pass” on the rear view
mirror before you arrive! NO PASS
.. then you park in another place. So,
the lesson here is to pay your dues
early and then it’s smooth sailing on
V-Day! Those who are eligible to be
CLASP Members and pay their dues
are all Alumni OR parents who have
campers here 3 or more years. (The
upcoming summer counts as a year!)
Can go on line to CLH website,
download a 2016 Membership Form
and send in with your dues if you
have not already done so! There are
no “passes” available on V- Day!
STARTING IN SEPTEMBER
‘16, YOUR DUES CAN BE PAID
ONLINE. (Go to CLH website in
September for directions) “PARKING PASSES” CAN BE PRINTED ONLINE STARTING NEXT
MAY ‘17.
AND FOR SOME OF YOU
THAT HAVE BEEN ASKING
OVER AND OVER AGAIN . . WE
ARE OFFERING A LIFETIME
MEMBERSHIP STARTING IN
SEPTEMBER ‘16 .. $200.00 for
an individual and add a spouse for
$50.00 more!
Speaking of changes, LUMNews
will be mostly on line for those
e-mail addresses we have. MOST
OF YOU HAVE REQUESTED
OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO
RECEIVE CLASP MAIL ELECTRONICALLY, AND WE {WILL
START THAT PROCESS IN THE
FALL. For those of you who have
not paid your dues in a while, we
will start removing you from our
files in a timely manner! If you wish
to receive your newspaper by snail
mail or both, paper and electronically, please let us know! There are
more details in this paper! ..
Two great mini-camps at two
great camps! Plans are already in
the works for these ‘16 camps and
we know they will be the best ever!
WE HOPE YOU CAN JOIN US
AUGUST 13/14 for some special
fun-in - the-sun. What a perfect
time and place to share with cabin
mates, family members and friends
the memories of times past and
enjoy the excitement of all the fun
things we do at the camps! THIS
COMING SUMMER will be the
last summer for 2 mini-camps going
on at the same time! Starting in
‘17, there will be a mini-camp at
Indian Springs but not at Inks Lake
.. The next year ‘18 there will be a
mini- camp at Inks Lake but not at
Indian Springs. The camps will have
a mini-camp every other year! So,
you are welcome to come each year
but you will rotate the camps! Why
not try something new?!
Campfires at both camps are
always exciting and original and
our friends at Inks Lake and Indian
Springs are already thinking of
new and original campfire skits and
songs for our mini- camp campfires!
(There is a rumor that at this year’s
Inks Lake mini-camp we might
again have a MILLER/REEDER or
REEDER/MILLER all star campfire! Minicamp prices are $75.00
married couples for those signing
up before arriving at mini-camps.
THOSE THAT SIGN UP AFTER
ARRIVING, the price goes up to
$85.00 a person or $150.00 for married couples. So, if you know you
are corning, sign up before you arrive to save a few bucks and can be
assured a mini-camp T-shirt. AND
REMEMBER . . one must be at
least 25 years of age to be a camper
at the camps. WHAT A BARGAIN!
This year the two mini-camps
will be going on at the same time
the last day of 4th Term. The camps
are clean and neat, the Chow Halls
are stocked with great food (maybe
some chicken fried steak?!), many
of the counselors are already at the
camps and at Springs, the horses
are looking forward to one last ride
before being put out to pasture for
the winter! WHAT FUN, FUN,
FUN TIMES WE WILL HAVE AT
BOTH CAMPS!
Included in this newspaper is a
mini-camp application and additional mini-camp applications,
dates, tuition, age, etc. are on the
Camp Longhorn website (www.
camplonghorn.com) Please check it
out! More questions or information?
Please e-mail us. My e-mail address
is [email protected] We
welcome and love news about our
Alumni and Special Parents. A
quick e-mail .. and maybe a picture
to us would be so special to know
what is happening to our friends in
our CLASP organization! WEDDING PICTURES .. please e-mail
info., picture, date married and town
married in! We will enjoy this information and know another 7,000+
will enjoy too!
Our “forever bricks” have surpassed all expectations these past
few years in remembering someone
forever! What a great success story.
It’s such a wonderful treat to walk
through this area at both camps
and read the messages of campers,
former campers, counselors and
CLASP Members! Our “forever
bricks” at Inks Lake are featured in
the pavilion and at Indian Springs
the bricks are in front of the office
and close to the Chow Hall. We
invite you to add your name(s) or
name(s) of someone that has been
to camp to the growing number of
bricks. They are $100 each and if
interested, an order form is enclosed
in this paper .. very popular!
What fun we have had with our
ATTAWAYTOGO AWARDS. We
give this fun award twice a year to
special people that are recognized
for their many accomplishments
through the years at camp and be-
Checking in and anxious for their 24 hours of fun-in-the-sun at the 2015 minicamps are . . (left) INKS LAKE . . Alumni KELLY BLALOCK MORTON (l) and

Again, August 13/14 IS THE
DATE for both Indian Springs and
Inks Lake mini-camps! MARK
YOUR CALENDAR! What a great
time to spend floating in the Rio
Flojo and Lazy River or taking a dip
in the cool waters of Inks Lake and
Indian Springs. It’s a busy 24 hours
of fun-in-thesun with lots of activities, good food and inspiring Church
Mountains on Sunday morning before saying SO-LONG-HORN until
next year.
The price is right! It’s only $75.00
married couples if you sign up before
coming to mini-camp! If you wait
and sign up after you arrive, the price
goes up. $85.00 for one person and
$150.00 for married couples! To be
