I remember leaving camp to go to the theater to scream when Dan Akroid said 'roasting marshmellows at Camp Wakonda' It made me think to google. I can't believe I haven't thought of it before. I have so many memories. I was a camper from 78-86 and was waterfront in 86. I had alot of crushes there :) I just took my son to church camp here outside of Portland Oregon and it brought up a lot of wonderful memories. I haven't been able to eat Twix bars since the year that Dick Barnard brought cases of them to camp :) I wish I had known about the reunion. I would have loved to come! All the best. If any of you remember me, I can be reached at lauraahall@comcast.net. Laura Just watching Ghost Busters.

I attended Camp Wakonda before the lodge was built and all of our delicious meals were prepared by Mrs. Cochran and served in a tent! I not only attended as a camper for a number of years, I was also the "sanitation engineer" for several seasons under the lovable guidance of the incomparable Rev. Orville Briner (affectionaly called the "Governor". My mentor and friend, the very dedicated Dick Barnard ("king of the puns") was very instrumental in helping me during difficult adolescent years. Camp was only an extension of my association with Dick. Nine years of thursday evening fellowship formed a very close bond due to his ministry to youth, his leadership, encouragement and love of life. I could go on and on about the wonderful experiences and extaordinary people from Camp Wakonda who embraced me and joyously affected my life, but I will save some of that for the reunion. Hope to see you there. Love ya, Mel Douglas Cherry Greetings to all Alumni,
