Robin Sloma was at Tall Timber from 1965-1969. Her parents were Marty and Evelyn Melasky, and her brother’s name is Michael.
Robin’s favorite activities were playing paddle ball, dancing in the pink house to the juke box, peeking into the casino on Saturday nights when there was “racy entertainment” for the adults (i.e. strippers, x-rated movies), Saturday horseback riding, Wednesday night bowling, Color War at the end of the summer, Friday night camp services, and being with all the wonderful friends she made.
Here are some images Robin saved from 1965, 1967 and 1968. Robin shot them, unless she was in them.
