Camp registration opens this month! It’s that time of year again! Registration information for Hermann Sons Life Camp will be sent to all Camp-eligible junior members the first week of March. As soon as the information is received, parents/grandparents can start registering their children for the summer of 2020. Executive Camp Director Ian Brassett, Riverside Director Pamela Nentwich, Hilltop Director Keaton “Skittles” Trainer, Assistant Hilltop Director John Sorbel and Jessica “Webster” James are busy preparing the program. Registration information will be delivered in two ways. The 2019 campers who are still eligible to attend Camp will be receiving their registration information via email. These
campers already have a Class Juggler account and will be able to log-in to their account and register. The registration brochure will include all the information you need to update your account and proceed with registration. These campers will receive this e-mail earlier than those receiving the brochure my regular mail and they will be able to register first. If you have a Class Juggler account because your child is enrolled in one of our schools of dance, then you will receive the registration information by e-mail as well. Parents who receive the e-mail version of the brochure will not receive it by regular mail. See CAMP, Pg. 9
Camp workday to include dinner, live music
Ed Kurtz, who is a member of Austin Lodge and serves on the Member Benefits Committee, volunteered for last year’s first Camp workday. This year’s event will include a barbecue dinner and live music.
By IAN BRASSETT Executive Camp Director On Feb. 13, 2020, I walked the Camp facilities with Don Tymrak, Clay Haley and John Sorbel. It was a chilly day and as we walked both of the Camps, we jotted down everything we need to do and would like to do to improve the Camp for your child’s summer Camp experience. After making a list of 190 different projects, there was a realization that we could use some help! We have a lot of projects and jobs to accomplish before the summer. John and Clay have worked hard this past winter and fall but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done.
Time and money! We all know that anything can be accomplished with time and money. Most of our projects do not take much money, but there are a number of projects that with time can be accomplished . . . and that is where YOU COME IN. I’m appealing to our members for their time and energy on Saturday, April 18, from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We have jobs for both skilled and unskilled folks. We have jobs for the young and old. We can provide community service hours. If you need a place to spend the night, just let us know! We can open up a couple of dorms. See EVERYONE, Pg. 9
