PINE VALLEY Is
MECCA OF SCORES
FROM VALLEY
Over SI50,0G0 Of Deve-
lopment Work Done
in Last Year

Pine Valley, located about IS
miles from Imperial Valley, is be-
coming the Mecca of scores of I'M
perial Valley folks this summer for
week end parties and for perman-
ent summer camps. This charming
spot, unusually accessible alike to
Imperial Valley, San Diego and the
superb Laguna mountains, is with
out doubt one of the most beautiful
resorts anywhere in Southern Cali
fornia.
Located 10000 feet above care"
1t beckons the heat -iadcd valley
residents with its cool shade and
natural charm.
Within the last year over $780,
600 worth of development work has
been done at this wonderful spot
in the nountains, enhancing the
natural beauty of the place and ad-
ding the city convenienees which
make it possible to live there and
enjoy the beauty of the scenery in
the comfort which modern civilized
man seems to demand.
About one year ago c. s. Judson
saw the possibilities of this place
as an ideal vacation base for I'm
perial Valley people and buying the
100 acres, he has since that time
had it surveyed into big acreage
camp sites, each piped with run
ming water and fronting on roads,
which he has graded and put in,
and many persons are having rustic
cottages built there to go when
ever the wanderlust strikes
them. Last Sunday hundreds of
persons from Imperial Valley ran
over for a "look-see and 1T is
probable that many of these will
make up family parties or groups
of friends to establish small colo
MES there. n building plan worked
out by the management makes this
easily done without trouble and ut
small expense. Many persons are
also interested on account of the
fact that they feel the large sums
of money being spent on its deVe-
lopment are bound to increase the
value of these lots considerably,
making this the advisable time to
acquire D permanent camp for tu-
ture use.
The golf course, four holes of
which are now ready for use, also
IS an attraction to many who IKE
recreation as we'll as rest.
