Description
Campers from Camp Lown in Oakland participate in a regatta for parents and other visitors. In one rowboat a camper is dressed as Moses holding the Ten Commandments. Campers in another boat hold a banner that appears to read "Land of Our Fathers."
The old social hall at the camp is in the background.
In the 1960s, the camp was advertised as "An English language Jewish educational camp for boys and girls age 7 through high school."
