Thanks for hosting a fine reunion. You managed to arrange fantastic weather. There were fewer of us than last year, but it felt a little more relaxed.
Wish I could have made the Reunion. Maybe next August.

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!
Excellent post. Thanks.
The Camp Loll Alumni Reunion will be held on August 3-4, 2013. Those wishing to participate can arrive as early as Saturday at 1pm. Dinner will be provided, and a campfire program. If you wish to use the canoes and kayaks, or swim, you must pass the swim check (of course!). Rowboats can be used by non-swimmers. Church will be held on Sunday AM and breakfast provided as well, then things will wrap up around noon. Come play, eat, and remember your wonderful time on Camp Loll Staff! As a courtesy, please email Delose to RSVP. (d_conner@comcast.net )
