Tourist Information: Originally founded in 1913 as the Western Conference Center for the Young Women?s Christian Association, YWCA; Asilomar provided lodging and meeting space for religious groups, college conferences and women?s training courses. The summers however belonged primarily to the YWCA for their leadership conferences and the girl reserve summer camp. The stories from those early years of the stuck-ups, pirates and their songs, poems and words of wisdom are as much a part of Asilomar today as they were almost a century ago.
