The following update is brought to you by Atticus. My questions are in italics. Everything in quotes is the best I could do to reproduce Atticus’ answers. Hope you enjoy.

Camp Happenings Hold on to your hats folks! A lot has happened since our update in December. In January, Scott Grubb (an IT consultant) helped me install the equipment for two of the WiFi Towers.
