Yesterday was the session’s first Adventure Day. If your daughter is new to Kamaji, you probably don’t know what that is.

Way back in 1986 a genius movie Ferris Bueller’s Day Off starring Matthew Broderick was released. Many of you might fondly remember this movie, but just in case . . .

When I first met Mike, he always talked of owning his own camp. And when we got married, we began the search for our camp. Upon taking ownership of Kamaji, we faced several years of fumbling our way through updating the facility, revamping the program, re-establishing the spirit and atmosphere that is uniquely Kamaji, and [...]
