The Origin of the Camp Huronda Property at the South End of Lake Waseosa
John Charles Risk began practicing law early in the 1930s. A few years later, in the midst of the depression, he acquired the Waseosa property from a client who was unable to pay his bill in any other way. His sons, from whom this information comes, say that their father told him that it was a time when cash would have been far more welcome than a piece of land.
Your stories.
We want to compile a history of the area and we need your help before it's lost in the mists of time. When and why did Long Lake and Round Lake become Waseosa and Palette? Who originally built your cottage? How many places have hosted Fun Day over the years? What inspired people to form the LWRA in the first place ?
Send your histories in to us at secretary@lwra.net and we'll get them posted up here for everyone to enjoy!
