Text and annotations on album page read: "[ARL-147] Katherine Patton, 'Pat,' 'Woody,' Mrs. Rena Flake, Mrs. Wilson. You just can't keep a good 'fella' down, so here is Woody back in the mountains with crutches, 'Peggy,' and all, [ARL-148] 'Pat,' 'Woody' and 'Peggy,' Me, Mrs. Wilson. The second week of camp 'Woody' fell and broke her ankle. Camp was turned over to me for the remainder of the season. The broken leg was called 'Peggy.' Regardless of cast and crutches, 'Woody' still travelled where she pleased, [ARL-149] Mrs. Rena Flake, a kindergarten teacher from Wichita, Kan. Did she enjoy our Rocky Mountains!." The photographic prints on album page show: four African American women, one with crutches; Rena Flake, a young African American woman, sits on and among boulders at Camp Nizhoni in Lincoln Hills (Gilpin County), Colorado.
