1980

     
  • Our 25th anniversary! The celebration begins with a reunion at the MSU Union Building in East Lansing. All who enroll before the reunion will be treated at camp to a day in Traverse City with movies, McDonalds, amusement park, water slide, the works. The movies turn out to be “Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "The Empire Strikes Back.” What a great day!

  • The lake’s water level is down and the beach is huge.
  • We have fantastic sand sculpture contests.
  • We also are having great song nights and song contests, especially with two campers from Mexico on board: Hector Suarez, with his guitar, and Benny Ibarra, a leading Menudo singer in Mexico.

  • Sadly, this turns out to be Flying Eagle’s last summer as a camp. The Canjas are retiring and moving to Florida. Here’s our last staff. But like all the rest, it’s a summer full of fun and fellowship, activities and awards and a lot of accomplishment.
