CAMP COMMITTEE – The Youth program wrapped up last weekend but there are still many things to do out at Camp. The pool is still open with abbreviated hours, and we continue to have our Friday night Fish Fry and Special dinners. This is still the active Camp season, so continue to show up for your assigned duties, limit parking near your cottage to loading and unloading and keep your speed down around Camp. There are still kids around Camp and with the program ended, they can appear just about anywhere. Keep your eyes open for them! See you around Camp. Camp Committee
RESTARUANT - It's Fryday again and the Walleye are back, the Walleye are back! Get them while they last. On Saturday join us for the Annual Eiche Wing Ding. Big meaty wings coated in the Blasgens and Dussman's special sauces. Don't miss it! And Sunday night Kim Cazel is making her Chef debut with her Beef Brisket.
And the good eats continue to Labor Day. Next weekend's Fryday special is Grilled Salmon Burgers. On Saturday it's the Lincoln Dinner of Leibercasen and the trimmings. You can't go hungry here on the weekends! Scott

THE BAR - Thank you all for a wonderful season so far! The bar is open for the next 4 weekends with all of your favorite drinks! Stop by and see us. A special thank you to all of the bartenders who helped make this summer a success – Erin Beck, Kristin Gatz, Ashley Flowers, Dave Zweifel, Dan DeRusha, Nick Barts, Barb Wurster, and Tina Odachowski!
A few reminders…
Please do not bring your own beverages to the bar. It is ok to walk down with 1 but anything beyond that should be purchased from the bar. We have a liquor license and just like you wouldn’t go to your own local bar with drinks or a cooler, we ask that you not bring your own to the Rath’s.
We will ID you – if you appear to be under the age of 30 and we do not know you, you will be asked for ID. Please be respectful and bring your ID with you.
ART STUDIO - Can you believe we are down to our last 2 classes? This summer flew by!!
This Saturday, we will be working with Resin to make Wine Stoppers and Coasters. We will be open from 9AM to 1PM. $20 includes materials & supplies. Please let me know if you can make it. Peace & Love, Sonia G.

YOUTH - It’s the end of the summer! For Week 9 of Program, all of the campers worked on their Final Show acts. Staff put in lots of hard work to come up with ideas for the acts and lead their groups! When not practicing for Final Show, the kids played and learned football as a fun way to end the summer! Final Show was a blast and the kids blew us away with their dedication to making the show as amazing as possible. Reyna and Keith did an amazing job of putting everything together!
Thank you to everyone who helped at all with the Youth Program this summer! Even the smallest of things make a huge difference, and we couldn’t have done it without you! We hope the kids had a blast and we will miss everyone! Until next summer!
