Long Lake Conservation Center
circa 1960s
In 1962, the St. Louis Park Kiwanis Club (the the Southwest Minneapolis Kiwanis Club) donated 200 acres to Aitkin County. In 1965, the Long Lake Conservation Center opened its summer camp there to 108 boys; girls attended for the first time in 1967. Read more about this wonderful learning center at www.llcc.org. This photo postcard shows the camp at its beginnings in the 1960s.
