Dear Timberlake Families,
To those who are new, welcome, to those who are returning, welcome back. It is going to be an amazing summer at Timberlake camp and at Big Lodge in particular.
Being new to the Farm and Wilderness Family myself, I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself and share what experience I bring to the Big Lodge Head position. I have over 13 years of experience in several different educational settings, including six years as a counselor/head counselor at a camp located in the foothills of the Oregon Coast. I have also worked in a classroom setting for over 10 years helping students to meet their social, emotional and educational goals for personal success and growth.
I am very confident in the counseling staff that will be at Timberlake this summer and in their ability to give your camper an experience that is both memorable and remarkable. We have a group that is highly knowledgeable, energetic, fun, and brings a wide range of skills. They make a phenomenal team.
This summer will be filled with growth, discovery, skills building and the confidence that comes from living within a caring and supportive community environment for your campers.
Before you arrive and as the summer progresses, I will also be your main contact person if there are any questions or concerns that may arise. Please feel free to contact me at enclin@hotmail.com or (802) 422 2316 for any special needs your camper may have while attending Timberlake (dietary, medical etc.) so that we may ensure the best experience for your camper.
I look forward to an awesome summer and to meeting each of you and your campers.
Best Regards,
Erik Biornstad
