Long before Europeans arrived to settle the land now known as the United States, Native Americans were already living in those places. Divided into their own nations, they made their own weapons, found and grew their own food and raised their families on ancestral tribal lands.

    Eagle River, WI Founded 1928 Megaphone 2015 Annual Dear Megaphone Readers, The summer of 2015 has come to a close at the Friendly Confines and what a great one it was. It has been an action-packed journey for all involved at Camp Menominee this year. There have been so many memorable events this summer including the camp favorite British vs American, the returning event Sun & Wind, and last but not least the historic Green & White. We cannot forget our double victory over Camp Timberlane and our honorable performance in the defeat to Kawaga. We have represented Menominee pleasantly off camp during trips, socials and on Town Day. It has been a pleasure documenting the adventure, day by day, in the Megaphone. Every day is different at camp, this makes writing about it so interesting. I would like to thank everyone that has contributed to it, from the campers, to the counselors and support staff. I have relished the experience of writing about the boys while learning new sports and activities. I look forward to taking what I have learnt back to England. I hope you enjoy reading through the annual and it brings back many Menominee memories from this summer. The details of every person who attended camp this year are at the end of the annual so please stay in touch as much as possible. Many thanks, Dale Rawlings - 2015 Megaphone Editor Attitude Determination Heart Leadership Spirit Sportsmanship Attitude Determination Heart Leadership Spirit Sportsmanship Eagle River, WI Founded 1928 MEGAPHONE The Opening Edition Monday, 22nd June 2015 Welcome!
