THE WATER'S FINE, ESPECIALLY ON HOT DAYS: The Huron river, at Newkirk Reservation, affords facilities for two swimming areas and boating both above the dam and along the mill race. The picture above, taken from the dam, shows the more shallow swimming area used by the boys who are learners. They are shown paired off in a buddy system under which each checks on the other while in the water. One of the two camp canoes is in the background.
