Peter Bowers and Bill Arnold oral history transcript

Peter Bowers and Bill Arnold both worked for the Randolph Mountain Club as caretakers at the age of sixteen, a position normally held by college students or older. They talk about being friends at a young age and how they got the job as caretakers for the Club. They speak of what their duties were, hiking the trails, and some of the fun experiences they had. They mention the worst jobs they had to do, the scariest experiences they had, what they did for fun, what they ate and whether working for the RMC influenced their careers. Bill also mention the riot of 1979 in which a bunch of students were at the RMC drinking and how the state police, Forest Service and RMC all went up to take care of the situation. Peter and Bill still remain friends to this day and seem to have really enjoyed the time they spent at the Randolph Mountain Club. Keywords: History, Biography, Randolph Mountain Club
