While we have been connecting informally for years, we are now organizing events such as pub nights, music events (both live and on-line), the Huronda Axe Throwing Challenge and, with the full support of Camp Huronda leadership, the annual Alumni Weekend in June. We also have quarterly meetings that anyone is welcome to attend.<\/p>\n<p>Our biggest event as an organization was the 50th anniversary celebration held at camp in September 2022. It was an overwhelming success and motivated us to continue finding ways to support Camp Huronda and our extended Camp Huronda community. Our journey has been about the joy of re-connecting with old friends, sharing our Type 1 experiences, and creating new friendships that extend beyond the shores of Lake Waseosa.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1044&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<h3 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\">Our Mission<\/h3>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]To engage with past, present and future alumni to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>assist with the ongoing success of Camp Huronda<\/li>\n<li>communicate regularly with members<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0facilitate regular social events<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<h3 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\">Our Vision<\/h3>[vc_column_text]Creating and supporting lifelong connections to Camp Huronda[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1498&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1741809046582{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1741809431920{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<h3 class=\"sc_title sc_title_regular\">Join Us<\/h3>[vc_column_text]If you would like to join our alumni group, stay connected to Camp Huronda, find out about alumni activities and events, and continue to receive future issues of The Huronda Hobbit, please send us an email and we will add you to our mailing list!<\/p>\n<p><em>If you are interested in participating in our organizing committee, <\/em><em>we would love to have your involvement in whatever way you <\/em><em>may want to contribute.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:FriendsofCampHuronda@gmail.com\">FriendsofCampHuronda@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Please visit us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/friendsofcamphuronda\">Facebook <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/friendsofcamphuronda\/?hl=en\">Instagram<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1537&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1741809412971{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]Friends of Camp Huronda (FOCH) is an alumni association open to all past, present and future Huronda campers, staff, and families.
