The Winter That Wouldn't End

Hello All!

A ton of new and exciting things are happening here at Camp!  I've got so much news to share!

Winter came in like a lion at Camp Newaygo, and it looks like it will be going out like one, too.  Our newest addition to Camp Newaygo is Julia Burger, all the way from Atlanta Georgia.  She's our new Assistant Program Director and will be in charge of lots of different things during the year - from recruiting in the spring, evening programs in summer, to wedding assistant in the fall.  She brought a refreshing outlook to the rest of the office with her excitement about snow - without her, I think we all would have perished from Cabin Fever by now!

Check out her handiwork at the gates:


I knew those flamingos would come in handy for something.  She put about forty all over the giant snow piles.

Our winter events were amazing, starting with my favorite, the Murder Mystery Dinner.  Camp Newaygo "classmates" joined together for an 80's themed class reunion complete with 80's cuisine and a live DJ.  Daddies and daughters danced the night away at our annual Daddy Daughter Dance, and we tested out couples' knowledge on Valentine's Day at our Date Night Challenge.  Lang Lodge was a hoppin' place this winter!

Camp Fairs and shows are in full swing right now, and we are heading out to some awesome schools for teambuilding days.  On the homefront, we are gearing up for our spring events and our open house - hopefully there won't be any snow left by then...

Happy Camping!
