We will have an opportunity for hiking, fishing, canoeing, a paddle- boat, pontoon rides and evening campfires as well as social get-togethers to play cards and games. If you are at all interested in going to camp with us we'd like your input on how we should put it together. Do we charter a bus, car pool and everyone get there on their own? Do we have community meals or each cabin fix their own? Do we completely schedule our time or have some flexible scheduling? How about a day trip outside of camp? You see, lots of decisions need to be made and we want you to be a part of them. The tenative Camp Dates will be Monday, August 19 - Thursday, August 22. The camp is located 20 miles south of Park Rapids, MN. Cost will be determined based on final plans and decisions about transportation and meals. It could be as inexpensive as $20 per person. Come design your own Summer Camp, Tuesday, June 11th at 10:00am. If you are interested but can't make the meeting, please call Connie so we have an idea of how many might be interested. This would not be a committment. Fridley Senior Program Non-Profit Organization Fridley Public Schools U.S.Postage 5000 W.
