Cool Facts about #Widji17

Despite troubling events at the start of the summer, 2017 was simply epic. Our Camp Director, Moose, went on an unplanned sick-leave, and it takes a toll on staff to not only recover from losing the direct input of such a significant leader but also to launch a summer program with many moving parts.

My Girls Wrecked Me

It used to be “my way or the highway”. It used to be “suck it up”. It used to be “its okay if you want to be wrong”. My girls and now my grand-kids (Olivia, Logan & Liam) have wrecked me.
