Dr. Sheila (Happy)
Feigelson will serve her

Scholar-in-Residence, with
the focus being on group
dynamics and interpersonal
relations. Among other ac-
tivities, she will be conduct-
ing sessions for staff on

mate, and understanding

Sculptor Irving Berg's
works are included in both
public and private collec-
tions. Berg's emphasis at
camp is to include art in
both the building and land-
scape architecture at camp.
His major goal this sum-

Sculptor Court. The court
will be a special area com-
memorating the donors who
have made major contribu-
tions to the Fresh Air
Society. It will be a 30-foot
by 30-foot area located in
front of the camp office. A
sculpture honoring former
Fresh Air Society Executive
Director Sam Marcus will
be a centerpiece.
The panels containing the
names of donors will be
made of wood. A large arch
cast in concrete will focus
attention on the entrance.
Benches and design mod-
ules will be cast in concrete.
Berg hopes the court will be
a gathering place for small
groups and individuals
looking for a quiet spot to
meditate.
