Na-Sho-Pa Memories


Ok, ok.  The photo is up.  The cries have been deafening to say the least. 
(and just to remind all you can click on the photos on this site to enlarge)

In 1976 we all decided that we were finished with Camp Delaware and it was time to upgrade. Camp Na-Sho-Pa, Bloomingburg, NY was our new destination.

We actually loved it as the amenities were more to our liking.

My memory is not as vivid as Glassman or Herman but the one thing I do remember was Buddy once again being the center of attention for our entire group and winning over the hearts of the many women on campus. Can you blame them? Lets review based upon the photo above. Buddy was really coming into his own now and had started bodybuilding. The biceps were huge, the stomach ripped. With this came an added sense of self confidence with females I think the rest of us lacked.  After studying the photo further you will undoubtedly understand why.

(to this day the disproportional discrepancy between Bruce Herman and me leads to uproars of laughter that may require medicinal treatment to suspend.  View at your own risk.)

UPDATE: It has been brought to my attention that when the Howard Beach boys showed some interest in switching to Camp Na-Sho-Pa the team coordinating the deal for us at a special lower summer rate was none other than "The Negotiators" (Herbie Glassman & Allan Wilk).
Don't mess with Glassman & Wilk. Those m-effers play hardball!

Comments: 1) The cranio-phalangeal ratio is astonishing re: Wilk and Herman in this incredibly famous and rare Na-Sho-Pa photo; could be material for the Guinness Book

2) Buddy resembles Mick Jagger in many of the pictures, and maybe that is why he got lots of women
