Teachers used Porter Lake (also known as Sweets Pond) as a location for class picnics to give students supervised time away from the classroom.
Here members of the Class of 1918, as freshmen, enjoyed a day away. Some of those present include: Claudia Johnson, Ethel Whiting, Carolyn Winslow, Florice Winslow, Lizzie Worthley and Maurice Leighton.
