Camp Acadia
From 1909 – 1956, a girl’s camp, Camp Acadia, was active on the part of the Interlaken property that is now the Weirs Community Park. The misspelling of the name of the camp in the photo below as “Arcadia” is fitting. With its many amusement arcades, Weirs Beach could be dubbed “Arcadia”!
