Forest History Society Photograph Collection Sample Images: Boy Scouts / FHS500th

Image ID: FHS500
Image Date: [1965?]
Image Title: [Girl Scout Senior Roundup, Farragut State Park (Farragut, Idaho).]
Image Caption: [A postcard sponsored by the Idaho Forest Industries Committee and American Forest Products Industries, Inc. (AFPI), issued on the occasion of a national Senior Girl Scout Roundup (a special camping outing for Girl Scouts aged 14 to 17) held in Idaho's Farragut State Park, possibly in 1965. Four such Roundups were held for Senior Girl Scouts between the years 1956 and 1965; the 1965 Roundup was held in Idaho.]

[The inside of the postcard states "Report of Safe Arrival" and was apparently intended as a reassurance to girls' parents that their children had arrived safely at the camp site. The outside of the postcard includes a message about AFPI's tree farming program and conservation in Idaho.]
