For current parents, there are lots of photos available at your Camp InTouch accounts. But here are a couple samples from the past week. We will start having visitors next week. See the schedule below for upcoming events through the end of the summer. Saturday, July 9…..First Frogs
A busy month with an Alumnae wedding and a big group for Spruce up Weekend. It is really starting to feel like the campers should be here soon. We can’t wait to see everyone.

Bare ground still and only the occasional snow flake this whole winter. The lake should be warm this summer. Warm water will mesh well with our newest activity at Wohelo, Wake Surfing. The “ZIP”, above, our old Chris Craft, moved into a museum last year and our replacement is a 23 foot wakesurfing boat (as yet to be named…..). It is like waterskiing but the boat is going much slower and you surf on the

We already have a number of girls registered for summer 2016 and have planned the dates for our
