A Transformation at Tanuga
A Transformation at Tanuga

CAMP TANUGA, KALKASKA
A

t this point in the camping season 
cycle, we are often filled with a combi-
nation of gratitude, a sense of accom-
plishment and that bittersweet feeling of the 
end of another season at Camp Tanuga.
We are grateful to our alumni family that 
continue to send their children to camp, the 
outstanding staff members of the past sum-
mer that instilled the Tanuga Magic in all our 

campers and the privilege to be able to continue 
providing the gift of summer camp for a 72nd 
time!
The accomplishments were witnessed across 
the board as campers transformed, in front of 
our eyes, from inhibited, apprehensive, socially 
rusty individuals to a comfortable, confident 
and willing community.
After this transformation, there is an unmis-

takable feeling between the ending of camp and 
the re-entry back to family, home and school. 
It’s that pit in our stomachs, the yearning for 
just one more day with our camp friends and 
counselors and the bittersweet taste of the end 
of another chapter of the book of magical expe-
riences at Camp Tanuga.
For this, we are proud of all who were “Back 
for More in 2024.”
