Description

Bird's eye view of men, women, and children actively setting up a camping tent and campground. There is a car with people and a dog inside parked alongside the tent on what appears to be a road in the sand. The beach in the background appears to be desolate except for some houses a distance away. In the distant background, a pier is visible, probably Pierpont Pier. Library records indicate they are camping at Pierpont Bay, post 1915.
