ABOUT TAPAWINGO
The Tapawingo Honor Society
was that program through which young people were given final preparation
for service as counselors at Camp Minisink. The name "Tapawingo" derives
from that given ("House of Joy") to a new cabin built to house young women,
under head girls counselor Gladys V Thorne; while young men in the process
resided in "Talaqua" (headquarters, in history, of the "Indian Territory"),
under Father Dudley Cobham. Since 1949, upwards of 700 young people
have been accepted into the Society. |
