Member Essentials 11/16/22

Join our Camp Naming Committee! Many of our trails, natural features (ponds etc.), cabins and more don’t have names. The names are important for members to feel connected to the space and make it easier for campers to navigate the space. We are looking for volunteers to support with the following: – Perform an audit and create lists of things that still need names
 – Perform an audit of signage and develop a list of additional required signs
 – Flag any names for cultural appropriation etc.
 – Work with the staff to develop a plan for naming features
If you are interested, please fill out this brief form here. Our first meeting will be held virtually on December 8th from 6-7pm.
