The Colonel’s House at Camp Casey, a colonial revival-style home with gothic elements, was completed in 1904 as part of Fort Casey.
CAMP CASEY CONTINUED FROM A1 for the open space, they can come for the green, they can come for the history.” Despite all the progress SPU has made, including a newly renovated mess hall, there still is a long way to go, Myers said. For that reason, she said they hope to make the open house an annual event, to help raise awareness and money to continue upgrades. “We love history, and we’re really into the old houses,” said Barb Johnston, who traveled up from Everett with her husband Chuck for the open house. As an SPU alum, Johnson has stayed in other buildings at Camp Casey, and she used to camp there as a child. “So we’ve always wanted to come inside (the Colonel’s House),” she said. Guests were also allowed into the Sea Lab, a marine biology teaching center which is normally only available to school groups. The dozen or so aquariums in the Sea Lab are home to various types of Puget Sound sea life including starfish and sunfish, sea pickles, crab and sea urchin. Keith Ludemann, a retired Navy jet mechanic who built the Sea Lab from the ground up, has been working there 32 years now. “The reward is seeing
these kids,” Ludemann said. “Getting them to understand that this is what’s out there.” Camp Casey, originally known as Fort Casey, opened in 1890 by the U.S. Military.
Fort Casey, along with Fort Worden in Port Townsend and Fort Flagler in Nordland, became part of the “triangle of fire” to protect the entrance to Puget Sound. Within 20 years, Fort Casey was the fourth largest military post in Washington, housing 10 officers and 428 enlisted men. Fort Casey was decommissioned after World War
II, and SPU purchased the Camp Casey portion of the property. The fort itself along with the lighthouse, batteries and surrounding costal property are owned and operated by Washington State Parks as Fort Casey.
