THE PINE TORCH NEWSLETTERS, 1924-1948
351 ISSUES ON 3 MICROFILM ROLLS

STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF MISSOURI RESEARCH CENTER-ST. LOUIS
UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-ST. LOUIS

The Pine Street Branch newsletters were donated by Mary K. Meisenheimer of the YMCA of St. Louis in July 2004. The Pine Street Branch of the YMCA was dedicated on March 23, 1919. In 1921 the Pine Street Branch acquired Camp Rivercliff, near Bourbon, Missouri. The camp had all-weather buildings and was the first camp operated by African-Americans for African Americans in Missouri. By 1934 funding for the camp became difficult and the Y Circus was created to raise funds. This operation grew over time and was very successful in funding the camp until high costs caused its demise in 1955. The Pine Street Branch provided a public affairs forum on Sundays which attracted many important speakers.

The Pine Street Branch was demolished in 1960 as part of the Mill Creek Valley urban renewal project. Information for this history came from The Black YMCA of St. Louis. By N. Webster Moore. From the Bulletin of the Missouri Historical Society.

SCOPE AND CONTENT

The newsletters give a good account of the early years of this important YMCA branch as well as a glimpse of the African-American community of the time. Each issue has been assigned a folder number to enhance indexing. The newsletters were separated from the rest of the addenda because of their fragile condition.

FOLDER LIST

There are no actual folders. The folder numbers are for indexing purposes only.
