Camp Hitaga to Run Seven-Week Summer Day Camp
The Iowana Council of Camp Fire Boys and Girls will operate seven weeks of day camp at Camp Hitaga near Troy Mills in cooperation with the YMCA Camp Wapsie. The move rescues Camp Hitaga from financial trouble and follows a December sale threat. a $25,000 fundraising drive kept the camp alive and a separate plan for a full residential camp was postponed. The joint program aims to use camp properties efficiently, adding horseback riding swimming archery and canoeing with one overnight stay for campers.
