In 1936 a young man bought the site that is now known as Birch Hill Summer Camp. He thought it was the perfect setting for his dream, a coeducational camp for children. The forests, the lake, the mountain top setting, and the contour of the land added to enhance the camp. From there, he carved out the picturesque camp. The beautiful winding trail to the beach, the circle of the pines, tree-lined paths and twin pines in front of each cabin are examples of how he planted and nurtured the land for the future.
