“Celebrate Midsummer Night with the Other Norwegians - Trolls.”   Just 68 miles from Yellowstone Park at the base of the Cooke City highway, our camp scenery feels like Norway.  It’s easy to imagine the mountain trolls joining us at the base of the switchbacks near a place similar to Trollstigen.
      The camp weekend begins on Thursday evening, July 9th, 2009 and continues through Sunday morning, the 12th.  If trolls don’t hog it all there will be delicious Norwegian foods, folk dancing, Norwegian language, genealogy, heritage needlework, carving and more.  All ages are welcome; it’s also an opportunity for families to enjoy a long weekend together.  Camp charges cover all food, lodging and materials for the three nights.  
       This would be an opportune time for families to begin their vacation at camp and then take a tour through Yellowstone Park.  Join us!
