We’re here to advertise that it’s Casey’s birthday! 🎉🥳🎉

Help us celebrate someone who puts incredible time, energy, and passion into keeping Camp afloat year-round. No matter which way the winds blow, Casey is the supporting camp, campers, and staff throughout the summer. In the offseason, he cares for camps properties, vessels, and vehicles as a member of the facilities team. Never afraid to take on a new challenge or learn a new skill, we’re grateful for Casey.

Join us in wishing him a happy birthday! 🎂🎁🥳🎈

Campsick: the intense feeling of sadness and longing to return to summer camp after coming back home.

As you settle into your fall routines, perhaps you’re missing camp as much as we are! Videographer Ruby Clemons put together this beautiful preview of the 2026 movie mid-summer 💕

A big welcome to our 2026 Family Campers! The summer fun doesn’t have to end with 2nd Session. Family campers arrived yesterday to settle into their spaces, map out their schedule for the weekend, and of course… intro campfire 🔥

Today was the first full day of activities, including some delicious outdoor cooking, and our evening dance in the lodge 💃 More adventures await tomorrow!

What does it mean to be a Troubadour or Mountaineer? The latest blog post tries to answer that question (and probably just barely scratches the surface). Cheers to growing up at camp! Read the blog at norwester.org/blog-letters-from-camp
