CAMP COMMITTEE - Cottage Owners, we have a big holiday weekend coming up with plenty of activities at Camp - check this bulletin and flyers in the rest rooms for events and times. As has been discussed before, we will not be allowing fireworks in Camp!! Fireworks are illegal in Illinois, inside Camp and our insurance is at risk. Add the drought conditions we are in and the risk just isn't worth it. There are plenty of shows around the area, we encourage those who would like to see a show to attend one of theirs. 2023 Ground leases were due in December 2022 and we still have some outstanding balances. We will be available this Friday night to take payments or they can be left in the ITC Office mailbox at the front gate. Outstanding balances beyond this weekend, will have cottages locked and privileges revoked (Youth program, Swimming Pool access, ticket book access, etc). Please avoid these inconveniences by zeroing out your balance. Thank you, Camp Committee
COTTAGE OWNERS- We have been contacted by our waste disposal company that our dumpsters are overloaded and we have been fined. The dumpsters are for trash only during the season - No TVs, No mattresses, etc. We need to use that space for the cottage trash that we all generate. Also, the area down by the Rathskellar garage is not a metal recycling zone. If you have large appliances (from Camp only) that need to be recycled please contact the caretaker (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) to determine if there is a scheduled pick up. The scrappers come by infrequently and we don't have enough parking in the area to lose spots due to long term recycling storage. Thanks for your attention to these matters, Caretaker
WEEKLY BULLETIN – If you have something to post in the bulletin, make sure to email it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. no later than Wednesday . If you would like the bulletin to be emailed to you go www.illinoisturners.org and sign up.
PLEASE MAKE SURE I HAVE THE CORRECT TIME/DATE. I CAN’T COPY AND PASTE OFF OF A FLYERS OR A PDF. IT NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN IN A FORMAT TO CUT AND PASTE. If you have any questions please text or call me 847-361-3367. Thank you, Chris

This week's spotlight is on Tom Webb. Tom had his introduction to Turners, camp, and the restaurant in the late 60s. Tom had a long career in the food service industry and owned his own restaurants as well. So he brings his many years of experience to camp every summer all the way from Austin Texas. He focuses on spicing some of the Saturday nights up. Thanks Tom!
