I thought that alters/chapels were "decommissioned" when they went out of use, so that they couldn't be desacrated.

Beuller? Anyone?

While at this camp this is the building we would eat our meals in.
That looks like the church entrance doors
I went to sleep away camp there for 3 summers,68,69,70. It was a creepy place. The salesians were good to us. Most of us were from the city. The tower was locked up, but we got in it. The view was spectacular, but the place was spooky. We would wake up every morning to a loud speaker mounted on the tower, it played,"you're a good man Charlie Brown" It had a nice lake, horses, and tons of stuff to do. I was scared to walk thru the halls alone, the place was just spooky. There were lots of stories about lights going on and off, draws opening up, and the mausoleum was really creepy. LAter I went to Salesian High School in New Rochelle and ran into some of the same priests and brothers. All in all they were good summers, but the place was pretty ghostly, lots of stories about tunnels leading into the town.

When a student there I remember a Freshman dropping his laundry bag down this stairwell hitting the fire alarm in the process early in the morning sending us all outside. It was pouring rain.

I was a student at Salesian from 68-72. These rooms are on the third floor of the mansion. I was in one of them for a few days when ill. They would take sick students out of the big dormitory and put them in these rooms until better. The framed area on the left might be a dumb-waiter. They had one in that building. Can't be 100% on that though.

The sinks with the double faucet heads are very similar to the sinks in my dormitory.

Thank You for keeping Salesian Brothers alive through your picture.
I have a picture of the alter with the crucifix and stable and part of the Blessed Mother, taken in 1975. My husband Michael and I visited the
school during our honeymoon.
