Who do you Know?
What a great visit. A trio of friends who served at Arrowhead alongside their parents back in the 50's and 60's recently stopped by to visit.
They were full of stories and historical information that connected many of the puzzle pieces from the early days of Arrowhead to the present. I won't tell you any of the pranks and practical joke stories. I don't want to give my current staff any ideas. It was fun to see what names, labels and ideas have spanned the decades and are part of the heart and soul of the camp to this day. My favorite part of the visit was sitting down to look at photos from their time at camp, watching them point, chuckle and rattle off dozens of names (even the names of the horses) like they were teenagers again.
What a blessing to be apart of a legacy that makes alumni want to visit. Camp sure has changed over the years. But as we stood out at the camp sign and agreed, the mission is the same.
