Nurse Sheehy in the Infirmary kitchen 1940s

Elizabeth Sheehy joined the Birch Rock staff ranks in 1929. She came in as the camp nurse, professional and competent, enough of a traditionalist to administer weekly doses of milk of magnesia to one and all to encourage digestive health. She continued on at Birch Rock for many more summers, earning a plaque on the lodge wall after her first 25 years of service.
