Camp Marymount, in Tennessee,
Making* Plans for Summer Season
(Special to The Bulletin)
NASHVILLE, Tcnn.—The sum
mer camp is no longer an institu
tion that serves the chosen few. In
the past ten years the summer
camp has become so popular that
we can truly say it is as American
as apple pie or the baseball game
on the corner lot- Over one million
boys, and girl^ will spend part of
their summer in some type of
camp this year. This camp popu
larity hhs presented a grave prob
lem to Catholics of the South. Be
cause of the scarcity, and in many
sections the complete absence, of
Catholic camps, thousands of our
Catholic boys and girls will be en
rolled again this summer in non-
Catholic camp' In many instances
this will be done to the detriment
of their Catholic faith.
To make sure that their children
would be in a wholesome environ
ment and under the supervision of,
counselors inspired by Catholic
ideals, many parents in our South
ern States Have been enrolling
them in Camp Maymount. Camp
Marymount is a summer camp op
erated by the Diocese of Nashville.

It is as Catholic as its name. The
boys’ camp is staffed by the priests
from Father Ryan High School,
who are assisted by 23 major sem
inarians. These men are mature
enough to guide and direct the
growing boy. yet young enough to
understand the boy’s mind. The
girls’ camp, which is operated for
four weeks after the close of the
boys’ camp, is staffed by exem
plary young Catholic ladies emi
nently qualified by interest and
training for their assignments and
for the leadership of youth.
Camp Marymount otters a well
balanced program in the way of ac
tivities. Swimming is taught in a
large crystal clear lake. The water
front is operated under Red Cross
supervision. livery camper be
comes a swimmer. Canoeing is part
of the daily program. Camp Mary-
mount lias its own fine riding
horses. This activity is offered
daily to the campers at no extra
cost. Marksmanship, archery, na
ture study and'" many different
kinds of crafts are taught by com
petent instructors. Camp Mary
mount is affiliated with the Amer
ican Camping Asociation. the Na
tional Rifle Association, the Amer
ican Archery Association and the
American Red Cross. Camp Mary
mount has a capacity of 175 boys
and 175 girls and is one of the
largest camps in the South-
Parents who have taken the in
itiative to send John and Mary off
to Camp Marymount have learned
that what hitherto has been an
aimless vacation was now trans
formed into a purposeful existence
filled with many new possibilities.
The physical advantages of simple
outdoor living in a camp organized
for the benefit of the boy and girl
as compared with the usual more
or less adult activities of the aver
age summer resort, are obvious.
At camp the child is faced with the
challenge to do and dare, and if i
here, as nowhere else during the
long summer months, that new op
portunities arc presented, and
i pent np energies are released for
constructive ends. As we consider
the limited opportunities of the
stay-at-home child we cannot but
conclude that the movies, adult as
sociations. quc-tionablc contacts,
incompatible neighbors, and close
ly confined living, present an un
favorable picture. The primitive
urge within the child makes him
yearn for the freedom of the open
spaces. As standards of living be
come more artificial, it is little
wonder that more and more boys
and girls are turning to Camp
Marymount each summer, where
youth may again reaffirm its hw-
itage and discover new delights.
Many of the problem of life are
to be met with on a child’s scale
in a summer camp. The impres
sions which a child receives dur
ing a stay at camp tend to create
an intuitive sense of harmony, co
ordination, and control, It is real
Jile that we find in the camp en-
| virontnenf and our cainperS of to-
I day are being better prepared to
meet the real situations of life
which lhey will have to confront
in the adult world of tomorrow
Camp Marymount is located 18
miles from Nashville. Tonnes ee,
on Highway 100. It embraces 150
acres of unexcelled camp terrain.
Its 32 buildings are modern and
well equipped. For a beautiful il
