G&S & Crystal Bungalows

Gina Groia remembers G & S and Crystal Bungalows and all the favorite kids' hang outs of yesteryear.


There were two bungalow i was lucky to be a part of. Crystal and G & S..........first Crystal, i remember that creepy gut that no one ever know who lived outside the bungalow colony. We used to walk down the road & only go so far and turn around, remember the little grocery store by the pool, recently went by how sad & run down, but the phone booth is still there....lol Remember when Uncle Billy would get all the kids together & march thru the cemetery. Also at G & S, Paula I lived in Monroe projects too......and have lots of memories of the bungalow colony. Remember Sarah....who could forget the fun. the pool, casino, movie nite, Sat nite for the "grown-ups" the kids tried to sneek in, bingo nite. How about going to Sol's in Woodridge for ice cream, or Poppins in South Fallsburg for breakfast. And who can forget "The Falls" by Crossroads....thanks for the memories

  2. My family went to Colony Park Bungalows as a kid, right down the street from G&S! I remember being jealous they had a jukebox and a store to buy candy and gum and we didn't. Oh, the memories!

  3. Does anyone remember the craft store in town in the 1970s? A girl named Karin (?) went to day camp at Colony Park there. Just wondering what happened to her
