About this postcard

Washington Lodge, a two-story clapboard building with a dormered roof and a long side porch, sits half-hidden behind large shade trees; utility wires cross the sky above. The caption names it as the administration and faculty headquarters of the Methodist Annual Conference Training Center at Jumonville, Pennsylvania. Jumonville is a Methodist camp and conference ground in the Laurel Highlands of Fayette County, southwestern Pennsylvania, named for nearby Jumonville Glen, site of a 1754 skirmish, and used for summer institutes and training programs.
