The Longhouse has finally emerged from the depths of northern snow – Aslan must be on the move!  For those special few who have dedicated not only their summers but also their two months of spring, this snowlessness will soon mean time for leaf-blowing, grass-cutting, re-painting, equipment-fixing, program-planning, kitchen-scrubbing and perhaps even taste-testing some of this summer’s new meals! Though Moose and Bruno (and Palooza) have been at camp since everyone else packed up on Labour Day, I know that they will be excited to see some friendly, familiar faces around the grounds again!!

We’ll let you know when we have our “Elbow Grease Days,” when you will be able to come and lend your body to the camp ministry that your heart already loves.

This blog, while pretty awesome, is only one of the ways that we are spreading the Widjiitiwin word around the province. Ever heard of a little thing called Adventures in Odyssey? Yeah, we’re big fans over here at camp, and to show our support of solid story telling with a heart-warming lesson we’ve been sponsoring the program as it airs on Life 100.3 this month! Listen at 4:00pm weekdays for the next little while and get an ear-full of Director “Moose” Greenfield’s mad radio announcer skills (via pre-recorded commercial epicness)!

But we know that there are still those who prefer face-to-face presentations over Facebook notifications, Twitter tweets or the odd blogspot blog, so Moose (and Mumz!) are touring all over Ontario to bring tonnes of information (and the chance to win a week to camp!) closer to you! Today we showed up at Maple Avenue Baptist Church and saw a couple of familiar faces… and hopefully some younger faces that will become a little more familiar from this summer on? Keep an eye open for that classic purple shirt on Sunday mornings – you never know where we might pop up!
