NEWS FROM HERE AND ABOUT...
A fun time was had by all
at the Junior Wiggy on
January 21st.
We were fortunate enough
to be able to celebrate
Uncle Phil Clough’s
90th Birthday!
Now that’s something to
Brix-Brax about!
Colorado is the place to be for a “taste of Winona”, at
Winona’s Restaurant in Steamboat Springs.
Hannah Saujet, mother of Felix and Theo, sent along this
photo during a recent trip.
It reminded them of good times in Maine!

Our new camper (but not new to Winona, due to
many seasons as a Family Camper), Frank
Sherlock, had Winona on his mind when he
made this great, Pinebox Derby car with his Boy
Scout troop recently.
Mom reports that he placed 15th out of 25
overall. Great job for a first time racer!
A Winona gathering of a different kind...the tailgating kind! Winona families attended a
Patriots game at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA
this fall.

More NEWS FROM HERE AND
Winona 20??
Here are a couple of potential Winona campers in deep discussion
about how to best put up a platform tent or how to catch the BAT.
This would seem unusual, but not if one of your parents is
Winona’s Director of Maintenance, Jeremy Longpre and the other
is former counselor, Uncle Ross Whelchel.
Wade Whelchel and Silas Longpre brought along their folks to help
celebrate Uncle Phil Clough’s 90th birthday.
LtoR: Ross & Wade Whelchel and
Silas & Jeremy Longpre
Winona Campers and Family Campers Unite!
The unusually warm February weather led this
group straight to the shores of Moose Pond.
