Glen Cannon Was Home To Several Camps

Source: The Transylvania Times - By Marcy Thompson

In 1921 Mrs. Luella Gibson Joiner of Alabama started Camp Brevard for girls. The camp was located just a couple a miles outside of town on property owned by C.M. Siniard near Glen Cannon Falls. The camp was included in a Red Book Magazine publication about 1926 summer camps. However, Joiner died on Nov. 25, 1925.

W.W. Waters took over management of the camp in 1926 and renamed it Camp Cohosset. The name was said to be an Indian term for "by the pines." It operated for just one season.

Mrs. Luther Pushell opened Camp Perry-Ann, "the only camp in the South exclusively for Jewish Girls," on the property in 1927. Camp Perry-Ann brochures describe the property as 200 acres on a gently sloping pine-covered hill overlooking the French Broad River and bordering Williamson Creek and Glen Cannon Falls. It included the lake, tennis courts, a lodge and cabins. Camp Perry-Ann operated through 1931.

In 1936 it was announced that a Girl Scout Camp would operate on the former Camp Perry-Ann site. The property was then own by Mr. and Mrs. T.J. Wilson. Camp Cateechee was affiliated with the Girl Scouts of Asheville, Charlotte and Greenville, S.C. but served Girl Scouts from throughout the Southeast. Camp Cateechee operated for about 10 years.

Another little known girls' camp on the outskirts of Brevard was Camp Ivy Hill. Located on a low wooded hill it included the Ivy Hill Nursing Home (today The Oaks) property. The camp was operated by Mrs. Harriet Davis and her daughters, Miss Mary McPhail Davis and Mrs. Elizabeth Mauldin. It included swimming, tennis, basketball, baseball, volleyball, track and Hiking excursions. Music, basketry, weaving, clay modeling and illustrating were also offered. Camp Ivy Hill operated from 1921-1923.
