Hi - this is sort of weird, but I went to Tabor Lake frequently as a small child during 1972 & 1973 --in the winter. My uncle's name is Danny Greene and I think his parents worked there. I was only in kindergarten at the time. I actually lived on Tabor Road (right next to the fire station/animal hospital, and across the street from Hoovers). Anyway, I learned how to ice fish on Tabor Lake with my Dad. We caught lots of perch and pickerel. The great thing was, we were always the only 2 people there in January. I would go to the Lake now and again in the summer with my Aunt. The sliding board seemed soooo high. Looking at these pictures really brought back a lot of memories. I don't know any of the people having fun in the pictures, but they all look familiar --if you know you what I mean. Thanks.

I did not want to bother you at your e-mail but I noticed your last entry here was 5 months ago did not know how often yuo checked it, I was just so excited when I saw this site. My aunt has been doing alot of family history and this was just neat. Anyway if you could send me the following pics I would love to be able to print them, TNPLTL-022, CABINPIX-07, TNPLTL-2010. I will check the site soon for new pics. Thanks again for your time, this was great.

I just wanted to say I was messing around and ran aacross this site tonight and I think this is great. My grandparents were Wilbur and Hazel Bolsterle. I have a lot of memories from tabor lake as a child and loved seeing the old pictures of them and their cabin. If you have more of the family in your scrap book I would love to see them. I think this web site you have done is great. Thanks for the walk down memorie Lane !!!! Let me know if you post more pics. mthbu4@metrocast.net

It is amazing how little the place has changed since we were there in the fifties. Even some of the people are the same or descendants of the same.

THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE TABOR LAKE. This year, again, the VAn Winkle clan, cabin #31, had their family reunion at Parsippany Hilton and some of us spent Friday afternoon on the beach and in the water. We even joined them for "Pizza on the Beach"

This year the Van Winkles had a reunion at the Parsippany Hilton. We took Saturday afternoon to go to Tabor Lake and show the newest generation what we were all talking about when we talked abaout THE LAKE. It WAS and IS a special place. It has not changed. What a nostalgic trip it was for me and my siblings. Some of our children had spent time there and were also finding it nostalgic. Then there was the newest generation who were equally interested in the place. My daughter, Stephanie, thought it was a shame that Emma and Rip sold the place as she would love to have a place there. We told Susan Anastario about it and perhaps if a cabin comes up for sale, we will be visiting again at THE LAKE. By the way, Rip died in 1984, but Emma is still going strong at 96 years old last August 22. She does not look her age, and only just now needs minimal assist with dressing, bathing and meal prep. She has her own apartment and pat time help. She is amazing and also made the reunion at Parsippany. How about a TABOT LAKE dinner like we used to have in the winter, where we all said "you look differeent with clothes on." Great to be able to reminisce. Mary Jo Van Winkle Dapice

Hi Jim! I'm the one who emailed you a while ago (the granddaughter of emma & Rip Van Winkle in cabin #??). My grandparents are at the close end of the table. Very cool to see them in someone else's pictures. Thanks again for the memories! Debbie Carnes Reilly
