Celebrating our 70th Summer with our Alumni
The idea of holding a 70th summer alumni reunion was pretty much a no brainer. Its been about 15 years since we last held an alumni reunion on-site at camp and we knew that there were lots of former campers and staff who were really wanting to get back to […]
Making the Most of your Child’s Camp Experience – Post Summer
While we joke at camp that “there’s still plenty of camping left”, there’s no denying that in 24 hours, camp is going to be pretty empty. We want our campers to enjoy every last minute of their time at North Star, however today we pack up and tomorrow campers will […]
Spending the Evening Doing Nothing

Second Session is Underway!
The second session of North Star’s 70th summer is officially underway! The excitement level has been on high since the time we boarded the buses in Chicago. Our Minneapolis pickup was dealing with MLB All-Star traffic incoming today, fitting as today marks the arrival on our second session All-Star campers […]
Oh Canada! We Welcome Back the Men of Pine Manor
What a difference ten days makes! At camp, we often use Fridays as benchmarks. On Fridays we come together as a camp in the evening, gather around the table for our traditional Friday night dinner of brisket and potato pancakes before we head to the Council Ring. Our campfire service […]
