Holt & Balcom Logging Museum hosts speakers
Several relatives from the Holt family were in attendance, including Peter DeWitt, the oldest surviving descendant of Devillo (Ellen) Holt who was in partnership with Uri Balcom when Camp One, commonly known as the Depot Camp, was opened in Lakewood.
Before the presentation, tours of the museum, the oldest logging camp in the United States sitting where it was originally built, were led by Camp Manager Bob Brown. Many of those in attendance made sure to view the camp's latest acquisition, a stamped Holt & Balcom log "floater" fished out of Reservoir Pond last year and donated by Debbie and Kyle Roeser of Townsend.
