Camp Ondessonk Family News
At Camp Ondessonk, our community extends far beyond the summer season; it’s a lifelong family that grows with every camper, counselor, volunteer, and friend. In Camp Ondessonk Family News, we celebrate the milestones, adventures, and memorable moments of our extended Camp Family. From new jobs and growing families to exciting achievements and life updates, this is where Ondessonk friends and alumni stay connected, inspired, and reminded of the joy that comes from being part of something bigger than ourselves.
