Hey hey! My name is Addison Nash and this will be my 4th summer working at camp. I am excited to be back as a program leader this year after several summers as a counselor! I love every moment I get to spend at manitou but especially late night fires at The Point. My favorite meal is Gyros and favorite campfire song is Linger. I can’t wait for another amazing summer up at Manitou!

Hey everyone!
My name is Dan Otto. This will be my third summer as one of the Program Leaders at Camp Manitou! I just graduated from CSP with my Physical and Health Education License and I am super excited for camp this summer! I have been working at Manitou since 2022, but have been coming to camp since I was 8 years old. My favorite meal is mac and cheese and corn dogs and favorite activity is Braveheart. I love everything about Camp and I am so excited to spend all summer appreciating this amazing place for all it has to offer!
I can’t wait for all of our amazing staff and campers to come back!
See you all soon!
