a dance there, and
The Four Seasons
were playing live!
They sang
"Sherry
Baby", and I
felt they were
singing to me! I
was about 12 or 13,
so it was a really
big deal | ||

| Wed Feb 09, 2011 20:02:22 Phil Dress Macungie Pa. | what a great website.I spent my entire summers from about age 8 to 16, camping with friends at Ben Roods campground at Sandy Beach.We fished, swam,rode bikes around the lake and enjoyed the drive-in movies from the hill next to the Martha Wash. Later,my kids learned to water-ski there. We launched at Mayers grove . Still return on occasion to have pizza at the grotto.What a great place! | ||
| Sun Feb 06, 2011 08:58:37 Edward Grosek Sweet Valley, Pa. | Our family had several homes at the lake over the years from 1931 thru the 1980's. The last one's at pole 285 and 286. My father made his own water ski's and was the first one to ski on the lake behind my grandfathers 30's Barrel Back Chris Craft. I still have both pairs of his home made 8 foot long water ski's that he built in our lumber mill in Plains, Grosek and Sons Consturction. I grew up spending summers at the lake and learned to ski in 1959 at 8 yrs old on those huge ski's. What great times we had! | ||

| Mon Jan 10, 2011 15:05:00 Dee Knerr Catasauqua, PA | I grew up coming to Harvey's lake for a week once a year when I was young. My brother and I went to Hanson's park and even to the dances. We saw Gary US Bond and Chubby Checkers there. It was so great. Really miss it and wish the park was back. I have relatives who live close to the lake and at least once a year my family and I will take a ride around it. | ||

| Sun Oct 31, 2010 07:07:34 PAT BUONO Portland Oregon | Thank you for this great site, good work. I was fortunate enough to spend every summer of my youth at the lake. I have so many fond memories of Hanson's, Sandy beach...fishing, swimming..the benches at the Sandy Beach drive-in. Ben Rood's cabins. My first dance at the Sandy Beach Pavilion to Eddy Day and the Night Timers. I have been gone for 30 years now, and I know the lake is not what it was in years past. Thanks for capturing this wonderful memories for us. |
