Description:
Photographic print in an album. Several children and adults gather outdoors around a flag pole as a United States flag is being raised. Dewey, the Turner family dog is in the foreground. Handwritten on the back of the photograph is, "Raising the flag/Mountain Springs Day Camp/1953."
This photograph is part of an album of the Wayne O. and Marion Turner farm which was in operation from 1945-1956 at RD 1, LaFayette, New York. It was first a chicken farm and then a vegetable truck farm. The Turner's sold produce at the Syracuse Regional Market during that time. After the farm stopped operating, the barn was re-modeled into The Syracuse Motel and part of the farm was sold to the Jewish Federation of Syracuse and made into "Camp Fren-Le."
