Jesse, Kaleb, and Landon sit down with the one and only Andy Tomyn—a guy who showed up at Camp Okema in 1978 and basically never left (in spirit, anyway).
They chat about the layout of camp back in the day, cabin construction adventures, the Sleepy Hollow fireplace (yes, that fireplace), the mysterious Okema Bell, and why this place is so much more than just a bunch of buildings in the woods. Come for the history, stay for the nostalgia, and learn a thing or two about why Camp Okema still matters to someone after all these years.
Thank you again to Andy for taking the time to chat with us and share his story.
