It appears she attended Gypsy Camp in 1926. Gypsy Camp originating in the early 1900s as an artist colony. The site 65 acres of land with some frontage along the Illinois River and located in Benton County Arkansas was purchased by Weesie and J.H. McAllister in 1921. Weesie McAllister envisioned turning the land into a summer camp for girls. The first building erected on the site was a three story structure that served as camp office residence for the McAllister family and dorm for the girls. Other structures were built in the late 1920s and eventually the camp could hold around 120 young women. The camp operated until 1978. It eventually fell into disrepair before being added to the National Register Historic District in 1988. Even so it was still empty until 2017. This scrapbook documents the early stages of Gypsy Camp as experienced by a young woman. GOOD condition. The scrapbook is generally solid. Some pages are loose and laid in with chipped and torn edges. Paper is rather brittle. No publisher unknown
