Owasippe 2011 - 100 Years Old

 I find that there are just not enough pictures of Owasippe on the internet, so I wanted to fix that.

Owasippe is the oldest Boy Scout camp in the US.  They celebrated their 100th anniversary this year.

My family has been going there since my Dad started in the 50s.  I believe I've attended about 16 years myself, two of which I worked on camp staff.

I took some photos while I was there this year so here they are:
