Oh what fun! A nice day, a bunch of friends and a game of "capture the flag." It must be time for summer camp. On June 18, 1979, these Cub Scouts were taking part in the Catalina Boy Scouts Council day camp at Randolph Park. A total of 400 scouts, ages 8-10, would participate in the camp over a three-week period. Activities included marble shooting, leathercraft, pottery-making, singing and crafts. Read more about Tucson's past in Tales from the Morgue at go.azstarnet.com/morguetales. Today's entry is on the beginning of the Rose Garden at Randolph Park.
