The temperature every day for the past two weeks has danced around the upper 90′s and low 100′s. In this heat, how do you keep the active campers at Windells occupied and cooled off, in between skating and jumping on the trampolines.

Heres a photo update from Flows funky dream feature. Just wait til the kiddy pool is installed later this session. There will be people airing over others lounging in the pool, on the mountain!!
DC recently visited camp. With them they brought big timers and big head turners. Chas Guldemond, Jonas Carlson, and TM Zack Dalton arrived waving a stack of free snowboards in the faces of campers. In order to determine which lucky campers would get their hands on these sick sticks, they hosted 2 challenges.
1. Milk Gallon chug-off
2. Raw egg eating contest

Jivaro Wheels, a local company out of Portland, is sending their skate team to Windells to thrash concrete and skatelite tomorrow night for all the campers to check out. Windells’ own sick skate coach, Jamie Weller, is on Jivaro’s team, so he’ll definitely be throwing down and if Jamie’s skating is any evidence of how good the rest of the team is, Windells is in for an awesome demo.
