The Treehouse Gang

Gordon describes the treehouse in Castle Rock, a social club for a group of boys including himself, Chris Chambers, Teddy Duchamp, and Vern Tessio. They play cards, smoke cigarettes, and look at girly books, passing the time during the hottest, driest summer since 1907. The treehouse is a sanctuary from their troubled home lives and a place where their friendship is forged.
