WELCOME TO THE CAMP ORKILA BLOG!

Howdy Campers (and Families),

We're glad you found this site!

Hopefully you had an amazing Summer of 2007 - we sure did - and that you will be joining us again in 2008. If you are, bring a friend along too!

But if you haven't registered yet, make sure to soon!

In the meantime, we have lined up some cool things on this new website to help bring back those camp memories...

1. A word search with an emphasis on Camp Orkila!
2. An interview with long time staff member Abbey Jaffe!
3. A slideshow with a sampling of the 2007 Cabin Photos!
4. YouTube videos from last summer!
5. Download "Last Chance" the classic campfire song written by Orkila Alumni!
6. Rotating camp polls (starting with your favorite dessert)!
7. A summer camp countdown clock!
8. And more to come!

Also, during the summer this site will be updated with daily pictures and other fun surprises. Make sure to bookmark it (parents too!) for the future.

In the Orkila Spirit,

Michael Pulju & Lacy Kilty
