An early weekend snowstorm made the conditions at camp ideal for a wintry weekend of fun! The main office turned into a cozy lodge as campers and staff arrived Friday night. Everyone woke up Saturday morning eager to get out and play in the snow. The first stop was to the waterfront where kids and staff were seen jumping into drifts, throwing around the football and chasing Walter the dog. After some fun times around the waterfront, the crew decided to make the hike out onto East Pond where more football and fun continued. Nathan Levy rumbled and stumbled his way to two touchdowns leading the Maroon team to a come from behind victory in the annual football game. Shortly after our trip onto the lake the crew made it back to the office and took orders for sub sandwiches at D and L's. After lunch and little downtime the day ensued with another hike around camp. As the hike led us into the woods the crew decided that it would be fun to make a short film which will be uploaded for all to see! As the day ended everyone was excited for Korner Store pizza followed by bowling at Strike Ten lanes. After pizza and bowling the night ended with the group playing card games using popcorn and sour patch kids at collateral. We started Sunday morning with camps favorite breakfast spot Big G's. After a huge meal and some more time playing with friends around camp, campers and staff headed for home. A was a great weekend of fun, friends and Manitou memories.

Joining in the fun were: James Barlia, Matt Schwartz, Holden Wegner, Jared Scheinberg, David Warner, Brandon Shorey, Big Bird, Sweet Bags, the Levy family (Josh, Leslie, Nathan and Sadie) Carolyn Roy, Stacy Pinkham, Walter the Dog, Derek, Craig and Dave.
