The 16th annual Winter Camping Symposium is returning to YMCA Camp Miller in Sturgeon Lake, Minnesota. Dates are Thursday, Octover 23- Sunday October 26, 2014. I urge anyone who is interested in camping during the Fall, Winter or Spring to attend. It's a great get together. You'll learn a lot, meet a lot of fascinating folks and eat well. |
