Marianne Jezierski, a long term supporter of Camp was elected to the Executive Secretary Position during the Alumni Association annual business meeting. Congrats to Marianne and we look forward to a great year.
Adam Dewey, a past staff member from the mid 90'2 was looking for a way to re-commect with camp. Boy did he jump in with both feet. Both Adam and his younger brother, Phil, agree that working on camp staff was one of the most positive influences they have had. We look forward to having Adam on the board for the next three years.
A big thanks to Warren and Chad for their service this past year. We still have Chad around for another year as Past President but and we will sure miss Warren's thoughtful guidance as Board member.
