"Step back in time to the historic Camp Meeting of 1869 at Round Lake, New York. This national Methodist gathering brought together thousands of believers for a spiritual and communal experience like no other. The campground market buzzed with activity as attendees perused stalls filled with trinkets, food, and supplies for their stay. An outdoor preacher captivated the crowd with his powerful sermon, inspiring hearts and minds to embrace faith. Amidst the fervor, a public drinking fountain quenched the thirst of weary souls seeking respite from the summer heat. Round Lake Station served as a gateway to this sacred space, welcoming pilgrims from far and wide. In the heart of it all stood the central circle—a symbol of unity where worshippers gathered in prayer and fellowship during those memorable ten days in July. The grand tent loomed large over this holy ground, providing shelter for countless souls seeking solace under its canvas roof. Wesley Avenue wound through the campground, lined with family tents that became temporary homes for visitors who sought connection amidst nature's beauty. Boating on Round Lake offered moments of tranquility amid bustling activities—an opportunity to reflect upon one's journey towards spiritual enlightenment. As autumn arrived in Fishlake National Forest years later, yellow aspens cast their vibrant hues onto Round Lake's mirrored surface—a breathtaking sight that reminded all who witnessed it of nature's ever-changing beauty. Whether registering at campgrounds or browsing through books at the onsite store—the spirit of camaraderie permeated every corner—forging lifelong friendships among kindred spirits united by their devotion to God.
