Fr. Redmond, Sutton, Baril and Mr/Mrs. Kraemer. What would we have done without you?
And countless volunteers, counsellors, parents, campers, donors and others who believed in the Camp Oskiniko experience
“Camp Oskiniko is much more than the conglomeration of events. It is much more
than an ordinary campground. It is a feeling and a place to grow, an experience beyond telling in words, an opportunity to share and learn a strong lesson of love from another people and another culture...a message of hope, a sign of peace, a labour of love, a
brotherhood of peoples”.
All this and much more!Fr. Joe Redmond
Sorry everyone, last slide!
Thanks for watching,Thanks for everything!
