Reverend Richard E. Scully, founder of the Cincinnati Goodwill, operated a Fresh Air Camp for women and children in the 1930s and '40s. The camp was part of a 100-acre site with vegetable fields, a swimming pool, tennis courts, and horseshoe pits. The farmhouse on the site was used as lodging for visitors. Men who worked at the camp received food and other forms of relief for their families. Vegetables produced on the site were distributed at the Goodwill location at Ninth Street and Freeman Avenue in Cincinnati. According to family stories, Ruth Ann Eldridge, the first child of Edison and Anna Eldridge, was buried on the site of the camp in 1933. Reverend Scully had officiated at Edison and Anna's wedding and was a friend of the family.
