The fireplace and wood stove in the main cabin will provide some heat but cold-weather clothing and sleeping bags are required.
This event is coordinated so that members may attend Camp on Saturday and then head to Characters Restaurant in Sloatsburg for the Annual Nawakwa Winter Social on Sunday.

Just a reminder that as of 10/15/2022 Camp Nawakwa is closed for the season. For access to the camp, please be sure to contact our Board Chair raymondkozma@gmail.com in advance.
1. During the off-season (October 15th to April 30th), when the camping season is officially closed, permission to make use of Camp Nawakwa is needed from the Park Office.
2. Any Key-holder member who wishes to access and use camp during the off-season must notify the Board Chair who will contact the Park Office to request permission and obtain the necessary permit. Members should contact the Board Chair five days before the requested visit date so that sufficient time can be allowed for the Park Office to be notified and respond.
3. All the normal Park Rules and Regulations, and the established Policy and Procedures, will be in effect during this Non-High Camp Season.
Thanks to Glen for sending some pics of the work day this past weekend. We had great attendance with many hands chipping in to make things go smoothly. Camp is all packed up for the winter, with plenty of wood to keep us warm. Thanks to all for helping!
Come join the gang at a Hosted dinner and overnight at Camp Nawakwa November 12-13
