Last night TrueNorth hosted its annual Community of Efforts dinner for our amazing volunteers. Ridge Catering served herb crusted chicken, roasted redskin potatoes, seasoned green beans, salad and rolls to the guests. Julia and I helped Gary prepare for 200 people! That kitchen was hopping.
Camp Newaygo helpers Fran Gibbs and Michael Danhof both won awards for their excellent service - Fran was awarded the Peggy Stone Award and Michael was given Camp Newaygo's program award. Congratulations to the both of them for their hard work and many hours of service.
The evening ended with a performance by Fly Paper, a band from Kalamazoo. The Volunteer Resource Center team - Lora and Jena - did an excellent job with the decorations and the flow of the night, and the video showing all the volunteers wearing capes was adorable. All of our volunteers are superheroes to us!
On the homefront, the Wetland Trail is passable again! Julia and I hiked through the bog to Cliff House on Sunday and the frogs were practically deafening. Our feet got a bit wet from the high water level surround the boardwalk, but it was lots of fun picking our way through the trail.
Happy Camping!
