This weekend we had a chance to go to Asheville and visit and I dropped by Lutheridge and drove around and took some pics and relived some of that youth. Wow, what memories! The pool, the shuffleboard courts and yes, the abandoned tennis courts. Loved reliving my memories. I was wondering "maybe" if you could answer I question I have though after revisiting. Across from the pool, I am almost "certain" I stayed in a cabin up at the top of a hill. There were even stairs going from the drive to the cabins. They were in a U configuration with the "open" part of the U facing the pool. It looks to me those cabins may have been torn down and the "Foundations For Faith" center built there. Just wondering if you could confirm that for me. I have a pic of those old cabins and stairway and was wanting to recreate that pic but noticed they must be gone. Anyways, hope you are doing well! Thank you! LOVED my visit back and the memories were WONDERFUL!<br /> Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671869037123057260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3140892978654256514.post-54141234483970253422012-07-28T21:22:06.563-04:002012-07-28T21:22:06.563-04:00Your welcome! :) Neat that your mom was one of the...Your welcome! :) Neat that your mom was one of the first counselors too.Doug in NCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3140892978654256514.post-55732900587233671492012-07-11T05:41:54.963-04:002012-07-11T05:41:54.963-04:00Thanks so much for leaving your Lutheridge memorie...Thanks so much for leaving your Lutheridge memories. My mom was one of the first counselors there, and she, too, remembers playing tennis--so there's some sadness about the tennis court, but some joy in a labyrinth and the tennis court finally being put out of its misery, since no one was using it.Kristin Berkey-Abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16841824206762029363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3140892978654256514.post-59610040159171994412012-07-10T22:53:20.587-04:002012-07-10T22:53:20.587-04:00In the late 70's I was around 11 yrs old singi...In the late 70's I was around 11 yrs old singing in a group called The Burlington Boys Choir in NC. Every summer we went to Lutheridge for one week of choir training. I will always treasure those years. I remember one year I got to play doubles on a tennis team (even though I was no good .. lol!) but my partner was and we wound up winning second place on that court. breaks my heart to not see it being used anymore but at least it was put to good use. Thanks for the pics .... great memories!Doug in NCnoreply@blogger.com
