THANKS TO OUR SUPPORTERS:
In the summer of 2012, the County Zoning Board requested a public hearing at Walworth County Courthouse for the rezoning application for Wandawega Lake Resort / Camp Wandawega. In addition to numerous folks who joined us in person, hundreds of supporters from all corners of the country wrote to show their support, some of which are included below. It's thanks to the generous support of so many that Camp Wandawega is able to be used for "Mass in The Grass" and many other not-for-profit cultural activities.
