A few pics from camp and around, thanks to Ingrid, Marty and Karen M.
Hsin Wang shared a some photos from last weekend’s Hosted event. It’s great to see som many happy faces enjoying Camp Nawakwa!
Camp was not too crowded Saturday 6/5 and the breezes at the dock made it a great place to swim and kayak. With temperatures in the 90s predicted for Sunday and the next few days, the lake is a great place to cool off.
Remember- there’s no need for pre-approval for day visits! Just fill out the questionnaire and come visit. You’ll find it after logging in on the Nawakwa tab.
We are waiting still for the Palisades Interstate Parks Commission to update our Camp Access plan, now that New York State has relaxed Covid restrictions. The PIPC oversees all camps including Nawakwa and we expect an update soon.
We had a really good showing, 20 Nawakwans and Applicants. Despite the cold, rainy day, we did get chores done. A new applicant chopped wood, new wrought iron handles were installed to all the inside and outside cabin doors, we did a mouse-hole check of all cabins – we need to purchase steel wool, all the windows including downstairs were washed, cobwebs swept, the new refrigerator sterilized and the old freezer cleaned out, as well. Some outdoor chores were done too.
Hope to see you at camp soon…
