We also still have my grandfather's old swimming medals from Wyanoke.

Hey Grant...I too remember the "all-camp" swim meets...did them in 1970-1973 for Camp Alton - started in the 12 & under and finished in the 15 & unders - never medaled but really enjoyed the competition. My best sport was baseball and did play on the those teams as well.
