DEVIL'S LAKE CAMPOUT Friday, July 6, 7, 8 Organizational Committee: Todd Harris, Mischa Miller Even though the Stepping Stones 4-H Club is finalizing it's 3rd year, this is actually an annual event that dates back 7 years when the Miller family belonged to it's first 4-H club (now disbanded) What began as a 1 day nature & photo hike to our family's favorite spot on earth, picnic & swim, has turned into a 3 day family outing to nurture the souls of some 50 "fair-wearied" bodies. The event has gotten bigger & better every year. This year we have expanded the reservation to cover the weekend after Independance Day Holiday, paid for by the club's funding. We are looking forward to this years many experiences. YOUR EXPENSES Vehicle Stickers Pitch in for wood $5.00/person boat rental Possibly shower fees Food Dance costs possible Miscellaneous (Gift shop) LOCATION We have Group Campsite #1, located on the beautiful South shore of Devil's Lake.
