Hey…Where is the Camp Director Going?….


Bill Fogarty, Camp Howard Summer Program Director is on his way out the door headed for Chicago!  Why you might ask?  He is heading to an intense four day Workshop to become Certified as a Camp Director.  Camp Howard is a member of the American Camping Association which means we hold ourselves to to the highest standards in the industry to achieve certification through this organization.  One of the important elements is that the Camp Director has become certified.  See you in a week, Bill!

Camp Howard Campers, Can You Name This Location?


If you are a true Camp Howard Camper you will be able to name this famous location at camp.  What’s going on here?  This room is in the process of being renovated.  Each year we try to take on a “Fall” project that usually includes painting.  During the winter we try to improve the inside of an area.  I will be showing the changes to this location in about two weeks.  I want you to know “It is looking GREAT!” – Let’s hear some answers in the comment section…

Camp Dining Hall (Gimpl Hall) Sporting a New Look


At the end of every summer camping season, a few staff are asked to stay on and help with a camp improvement project.  It is generally a painting project from the maintenance cycle that keeps the buildings in good repair.  This years project was staining and trimming out the Dining hall and two of the staff cabins.
