It’s 2021! Do We Know Where Our Staff Is?

You Betcha! While we have many of our key positions filled, there are still some positions open for the upcoming summer… We have a huge staff! If you have any friends that you think would like to experience this place we all love feel free to have them email me at [email protected]. I would love to talk to them!

Alex Gordon will be our Logger Village Director for his 11th season. Heading up our Lumberjack Village will be Noah Stein. Additionally, we have Larry Rivkin and Larry Held signed on as Village Directors this summer. Louis Levin will again be our Program Director. Henry Pulitzer and Jake Beren will be directing our sweet waterfront this summer. Meals at camp will be awesome again as Anne Rowe returns for her 16th summer! Also returning to our awesome food staff is Cody Keys, Alex Fuller, Asher Burvall and Seth Wallack. Linnea Moss will spend another summer as our town driver. Grant Rosskamm returns as the Director of CNOC. Josh Levitas will be our Sailing Specialist this summer. Amber Burvall returns for her tenth summer as our RN. Jaye Hensel returns to the office for another great summer and joining Jaye for their first year (on staff) at camp is Claire Guest and Josie Hanson Kaplan. Joe Briggs once again heads up our camp office.

Intermission: So, I remember from my time on staff that when this part of the Arrowhead arrived, I would go directly to reading the staff list and skip the intro paragraph. That is why I’m taking this moment to say the following: If you have not signed on yet this summer, This Is The Summer To Be On Staff! With camp not running last summer, the summer of 2021 is going to be a memorable one. Shoot me an email at [email protected] to get on this great squad. Now, if you are on this list already, please reach out to your friends that you think would be a great addition to the camp family. You all are our best resource for recruiting. We trust you and you know the place well. Share Camp Nebagamon! Alright, back to our staff for the summer…Thank You!

Our senior counselors are as follows: Josh Hanson Kaplan, Sebastian Klein Sam Branstad Phillips, Tommy Bellaire, Joey Rivkin, Eric Portillo, Ari Krupnick, Jesse Herzog, Tommy Branstad Phillips and Zac Pearson. Junior Counselors for the summer of 2021 are Ben Hanson Kaplan, Parker Johnson, Matthew Garchik, Orion Kornfeld, Oliver Held, Isaac Schiff Lewin, John Osburn, Sam Shapira, Matthew Hooper, Adam Lewis, Gabi Huberman-Shales, Billy Galpern, Brady Rivkin, Charlie Cohen, Gabe Sloan Garcia, Jack Goodman, Jack Gordon, Jesse Chan, Michael Bayer, Peter Kallos, Trevor Harriman, Tyler Gray, Jordan Carlin, Jesse Gell, Jason Shacter, Jonah Karafiol, and Nate Woldenberg.

Andy Mack and Joe Crain continue to caretake our beautiful 77 acres. Lastly, Stephanie Hanson and Adam Kaplan will be your Camp Directors. So, as you can see, we already have a fantastic staff lined up for the summer. There are also many others that I’m in the process of talking with and will be announced later on this spring!

 

The 25th Annual Ice Breaker 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 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, 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!

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.

Wake up with Camp!

By Louis Levin

I have a confession to make. While many of our campers (particularly those of the Lumberjack village) may dread the ringing of the wakeup bell at 8 AM, I, personally, love it. The sound of our bell is crystalized in my mind. In many ways, it is the sound of camp for me. But because of our morning administration meeting at camp, I don’t ever get a chance to wake up to the bell, and haven’t since I was a counselor in Logger 1. Finally I found a workaround.

Every morning, all winter long, I wake up to the bell. During the summer a few seasons back, I took a clandestine recording of the bell so I could use it as the sound for the alarm on my phone. Now, when I wake up in the off-season, I don’t suffer through the stock alarms that come on my phone — I rise with the sound of camp!

I was telling a close camp friend about my slightly silly morning ritual, and he enthusiastically wanted the recording. So, I thought I’d offer it up to the camp family: my 100% authentic, 13-second recording of our camp bell. Use it as your ring tone (do people still use ringtones?), wake up to it in the mornings, or throw it on your workout playlist. I’d love to hear if you end up using it for, well, anything — send me an email at [email protected]!

Download the bell here!

Still ringin’ after all these years
