Spock Shock
Star Trek’s Leonard Nimoy steeled his icy reserve by having to jump into the frigid waters of Long Pond in Parsonsfield at West End House Camp. Years later, Red Sox guru Theo Epstein would test the same waters. You’d think that J.D. Salinger would be hard to get to know at summer camp. Nothing of the kind! Nobody can get away with being a recluse at Camp Wigwam, on Bear Pond in Waterford. We all know him as the author of The Catcher in the Rye and Franny and Zoey, but Hapworth 16 is an awesome rant by the narrator Seymour Glass, just seven years old, written from his summer camp in you-know-where.

We were driving the coast, so to speak, I think maybe in a station wagon. He fell in love with wherever we went, and now he’d fallen in love with Maine. We talked excitedly in the car. We were looking for a house on the water. We did examine the place! We kept driving north along the water until I don’t really remember the name of the town. We went quite a ways up, actually, because it was so beautiful. To John, each place was more beautiful than the last." Portland Monthly interview with Yoko Ono by Colin W. Sargent, Summerguide 2003.

breakfast in the cold, clean lake. I suppose those years were as close to carefree as I had known or ever would again.”
