Jean Shey
Jean Balgeman Shey was only 12 when Camp Algona was built nearby. Her first memory of the camp was of the 'eerie glow' in the night with the camp's many lights. No one in the country had electricity at the time, so the camp's search lights could be seen skating through the sky for miles. Create a free website. Create your own free website.
