Last night marked the end of another fabulous week here at Camp Orkila. As campers sat back and ate their final dinner in the lodge they were able to reflect on the memories made which were all brought together in the slideshow. We know all the campers had a great time and we hope to see them back next summer!

The campers chose sock stealing deer at their topic of choice. Watch what the kids help put together this week. It was a blast filming with Baker!
