2007 Call.qxd - Camp Mowglis

Back-to-the-Pack Weekend
Over 60 Mowglis men, their friends and their families
gathered for an August weekend that simply could not
have been better. From the abundant food to the neverending
choice of activities, there was something for everyone.
Canoes, kayaks, backpacks, rifles, archery equipment,
croquet mallets, chapel books and even the old reelto-reel
projector were all put to use one last time before
camp closed up for the winter.
Our oldest Mowglis in attendance was Roger Burke,
1942… our youngest was Foster Conklin, III, a thirdgeneration
Mowglis who was a Cub for the first time this
past summer. Warren Anderson and his son Ian traveled
the farthest from Ft. Lauderdale, beating Peter and
Denise Caley from Minneapolis by 200 miles (if you
believe Yahoo! Maps). We had two sets of Cub Parents,
many former staffers, lots of kids, and a few dogs, too.
We had dancers, a few attorneys, a doctor, teachers,
artists, deep-sea divers, several entrepreneurs, a river
rafter, a librarian, several musicians, and so much more.
It was a diverse crew, for sure, but one that nontheless
shares a common love of Mowglis and its timeless mission.
On Saturday evening everyone gathered for a campfire
to inaugurate the founding members of the Bagheera
Bequest Society and to announce that the endowment
campaign is "going public." The content of that campfire
can be found elsewhere in this issue.
