The summer meeting was a blast and I had lots of fun!!! The weather was hot and the bugs weren’t as bad as i thought they would be. The people were awesome!!!

Sixteen of the 17 members of the NYLC gathered in southern Illinois near Carbondale the weekend of July 25-27 to hold their summer meeting. The group camped in tents and participated in outdoor education activities led by Curt Carter, director of the Land for Learning Institute. Although it was hot and humid, the group kept cool swimming, canoeing and kayaking. They also helped cook some fantastic campfire meals, made presentations on their individual projects, selected candidates to be elected as officers, learned about historic primitive tools, participated in a session on how to conduct meetings using parliamentary procedure, got better acquainted with raccoon circles and other activities and enjoyed fishing and visiting. Photos of their activities are included.
