Camp Bil-O-Wood. It has played a major role in my life since, well, before I was born . . . I definitely can not fit everything in one post, so there will be much more to come, but here's a little bit to get started with:
At first glance Camp Bil-O-Wood may seem like you're typical summer camp, sports, crafts, hiking, canoeing, song-singing, campfires, and s'mores. But after even just one summer there people begin to realize it goes far far beyond just that. The people, the traditions, and the experiences you have here are indescribable.
Ok, so here are the basics: Camp is set on 3 beautiful lakes in Blind River Ontario. There are about 120 campers ages 6-17, counselors are college-ish age and older. Day to day activities are primarily sports, arts/crafts, and swimming, but the real heart and soul of camp is canoeing.
Campers start out on 3-4 day lake trips and eventually progress to one of 3, 2-week, 300 mile river trips that end at the James Bay, a large body of water south of the Hudson Bay. But more on that later . . .
