Summary
"In 1951, a small group of Jewish firefighters from New York City established a summer colony called Lake Waubeeka in Danbury, Connecticut. Today, it is a religiously, ethnically and racially diversified community of some 250 families... Over recent decades, Waubeeka has become a predomincately year-round settlement. While community demographics changed, a cooperative spirit has been passed from generation to generation."--Back cover.
