Today was the final day of the world's largest camp conference and it was great to see our wonderful Shankitunk staff up on the big screen!

One of the most beautiful parts of the conference is remembering those we have lost . . . Our beloved Maintanance man, Art Howard is gone, but not forgotten. 💚🍀💚

The conference chair's closing speech contained the following sentiment that we couldn't agree with more . . . "Working in the summer camp business is a privilege" and its a privilege we are grateful for!

Thank You to our campers, parents, families, staff, alumni, volunteers, partners, community and beyond for sharing in this privilege with us and for all you do to help make the 4-H camping experience at 4-H Camp Shankitunk possible! See you soon!
