 CAMP COMMITTEE – Hello from the Camp Committee who are up North at the Turnfest.  

RESTARUANT -Don't miss Laurie VanDahm's Friday Fish Fry special Pulled Pork Tenderloin.  On Saturday we have the regular grill.  Next week is Pam Lau's Sauerbraten w/mashed potatoes special.  It's the real deal she's been serving for years.  Tom Webb is serving up bacon cheeseburgers after the Final Show.  Lots of good eats yet to come!

This week's spotlight is on Randy Gunderson.  In three (maybe four) short year's he's worked his way up from apprentice Fry man to journeyman Fry man.  His FFFWA (Friday Fish Fry Workers of Algonquin) union steward Timmy Zbinden says he's one of the fastest learners he's ever seen.  Randy is married to Karin Gunderson who's been one of our Candy Store coordinators for years with Donna Sawicki.  Randy is a big a huge Dead & Company fan and just recently took a night off (thank Bobby Collins for filling in!) to head to San Francisco for a bunch of shows.  Randy is coincidentally a big fan of the local dispensaries.  Jerry Garcia's fans don't fall far from the tree!  Thanks Randy!

YOUTH - 2 MORE WEEKS!!  The 2 last weeks of Camp have approached and even though it is sad to think about the end, the amount of memories this summer has brought are too many to count!! Racquet Sports were a success as the Campers learned how to play Tennis and Pickleball, learning how to serve, keep score, and rally!! Bring A Parent to Program Day on Friday was such a huge success, Staff want to once again thank all the parents who came out to experience life in Program again and hangout with the kids!! As we are in the midst of Turnfest Week please be mindful of Staffs few numbers due to some of Staff competing at Turnfest this week! Take a moment to thank any Staff members you see walking by, they have donated so much time and worked many many hours to make this Summer as good as it has been!! Thank you ITC once again for all your support!!
