It’s 2022! Do We Know Where Our Staff Is?

Absolutely we do! We have an amazing foundation set of core staff that have signed on and are ready to make the summer of 2022 one for the record books! Back in late 2021, many staff contacted us to say they would like to return. This ensures that we will have veteran staff members in place to lead the charge in another great summer underneath the towering white pines. Many of our key positions have been filled, and cabin counselors and trip staff are coming into the fold. If you want your name added to this list, give us a shout! Contact Adam Fornear at [email protected]!

We are excited to announce that Cassandra Owens will be our Swamper Village Director for her fifth year on staff. Alex Gordon will be our Logger Village Director for his 12th year. And heading up our Lumberjack Village for his 3rd year is Noah Stein. Returning to our awesome kitchen staff are Cody Keys, Alex Fuller, Alejandra Jimenez, Marco Diaz, Maria Alonso, Noe Alvarez, Ruben Angel, Cynthia Dominquez, Abraham Jaurez, Alexandra Madrid, Cynthia Garcia and Chrysthina Garcia. Allen Bennett switches up roles and will be our town driver this summer. Our Big House housekeeper is Ximena Cervantes. Louis Levin is our Program Director for his fourth year. Heading up the Waterfront this summer will be Jeremy Nordin-Berghuis and Isaac Murray Stark, and with them at the Waterfront, heading up the sailing program, will be Amelie Sadler from the UK. Troika Brodsky returns to his old stomping grounds as the Director of CNOC. Heather Kennedy returns for her fourth summer heading up our Arts and Crafts project and joining her there for her first summer is Nora Starhill. Our Promotional Photographer will be Li Kane. Theresa Nevins joins us for her first summer as our Waterskiing Specialist. Gus Peters will be a Climbing Wall Specialist. Out on the range, Stanton Strauss returns back to Nebagamon as our Range Sports Specialist. Josie Hanson Kaplan and Julie Gordon return for their second summer in our office, with Joe Briggs at the helm for his 8th summer!

Our senior counselors for 2022 are as follows: John Bellaire, Sam Branstad Phillips, Simon Topf, Joey Rivkin, Tommy Branstad Phillips, Jesse Herzog, Gavin Stern, Max Rontal, Zach Herman, Marc Rosenthal, Joaquin Gutierrez. Second year Junior Counselors returning include Tyler Gray, Owen Wignall, Billy Galpern, Michael Bayer, Michael Bass, Jesse Chan, Jordan Carlin and Jack Goodman.

Trip staff this summer are Phoebe Stern, Isaac Schiff Lewin, Salma Schwartzman, Orion Kornfeld, Zoe Peterson, Charlie Cohen, Claire Barlass. Ron Gaare and Bill Hensel are returning as trip drivers and Jon Star will be our Quartermaster. Lastly, Adam Fornear will be the Trip Director. So, as you can see, we already have a wickedly sweet staff lined up for the summer. The stoke is high for the crew above, and we’re continuing to add amazing staff members as we speak.

Of course, we are still hiring for this summer and the list above is constantly updating! We are specifically still looking to hire for the following positions: Senior counselors, nursing assistants, wilderness trip leaders, a nature lore instructor, and climbing wall instructors. If you or someone you know are looking to work at camp this summer, make sure they get in touch with Adam Fornear at [email protected]!

The 26th Annual Icebreaker Contest Starts Today!

It’s time for the annual Icebreaker contest! We’re hoping spring will soon be upon us, so when exactly will the ice on Lake Nebagmon break? That’s the question facing us as we begin this year’s contest.

Here’s the last 65 years of data for you Moneyball types, courtesy of Andy Mack

Aficionados will recall, last year’s icebreak was April 4th, on the early side. In 2012 Lake Nebagamon experienced its earliest icebreak on record, falling on March 21st. The latest ice breakup was on May 14th in 2013. Right now, there are approx. 22″ of ice on the lake! The Official Lake Nebagamon Ice Recorder is none other than our own Andy Mack. He is already monitoring the lake for the village and will let us know as soon as the ice disappears, whether it happens mid-afternoon or at 3 a.m. Yes folks, Andy spends every waking moment (eating, sleeping, and working!) on the very shores of Lake Nebagamon to let us know EXACTLY when the ice breaks up (correct up to the second)!

To enter, simply fill out the form below. All entries must be received by April 1st. Of course, it would be wise to read the fine print below before making your guess. Winners could be contacted by Bravo TV, HBO, Hulu, Netflix, and other major networks and will receive prominent mention in The Arrowhead. So, don’t wait until the last minute. Send us your guess right away!


The Following Applies to the Sweepstakes Above:

Sweepstakes begins on the day you receive this Arrowhead and all entries must be received by April 1st. Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, misdirected, damaged, incomplete, illegible or postage-due mail. Entries become the property of Camp Nebagamon LLC and will not be returned or acknowledged. Any prize notice that results from a printing, production, typographical, mechanical or other error will be void.  If due to an error, more than one prize notice is issued, the prize will be awarded in a random drawing among all such notices issued and received. Sweepstakes open to the residents of the United States and Canada and to residents in selected parts of Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, Mexico, North America and South America, where made available and where permitted by law. Employees (full-time) of Camp Nebagamon LLC and members of those employees’ immediate families are not eligible. Select camp dogs permitted to submit entries; cats prohibited. This offer is subject to all applicable federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations and is void whenever prohibited or restricted by law. Winner selection and random drawings are under the supervision of Ostrow Reisin Berk and Abrams Ltd., an independent accounting firm whose decisions are final.  Random drawings will be held within 5 days of the ice breaking, no later than 5:00 p.m. at 877 Chardie Road, Boise, ID 83702.  Winners will be notified within 10 days of the selection/drawing.  Any prize or prize notification returned to the sponsor as undeliverable will result in the awarding of that prize to an alternate winner in a random drawing. Prize is not transferable except to a surviving spouse.  Substitution for the prize may be necessary due to unavailability, in which case a comparable prize of equal or lesser value will be awarded. In countries where cash prizes are prohibited, substitute merchandise of comparable value will be awarded.  Taxes (and any expenses not specified herein) are the responsibility of the winners.  Entry and acceptance of the prize constitute permission (except where prohibited by law) to use the winner’s name, hometown and likeness for purpose of advertising and promotion on behalf of the contest sponsor without further compensation. If you’ve read this far, congratulations!  The fine print is a joke, but the contest is for real!

Mailgabber — It’s a Telegram!

The Mailgabber features writing by members of the Camp Family. Interested in submitting for Mailgabber? Send submissions to Louis.

We get a lot of mail in the camp office, and this week were delighted to receive a telegram from longtime friend of camp, Chief A. K. Agikamik.

For those of you who don’t know him, Chief A. K. Agikamik is the chief of the Yo Yo Islands, and happened to go to college with camp’s founder, Muggs Lorber, at Indiana University where they became close friends. He still comes to visit camp every summer with his bodyguards, Ugg and Mugg, and sends telegrams to the Camp Family prior to his arrival. Please forgive the Chief — in his old age, he tends to mix up who camp’s directors are, and has a habit of writing to Roger, Judy, Sally, Nardie, and sometimes even Muggs himself!

We thought you’d all enjoy reading his telegram, so we’ve copied it below!
