Wood Lake Hymn
Just above the Wood Lake Waters
Nestled in the trees
Lives the Spirit of Good Scouting
And true Loyalties
We are trying, always striving
Ever more to be
Faithful to the Oath and Scout Law
Hail Wood Lake to thee!
Still Looking for Past Staff
If you know of anyone who was on staff at Wood Lake over the last 50 years we would appreciate hearing from you. If you know of or have any Memoriablia from Wood Lake that can be copied we would love to have this for Historical preservation of Wood Lake History.

The 50th was a great time for all who attended. There were several who attended from the 50's staff and almost everyone from the 2006 and many from other years. Everyone had a grand time reminiscing about their days at Summer Camp and renewing old friendships.

During our December meeting it was determined to keep the Interm Officers for the next term. Was glad to see everyone that attended. FOWLSA is up and running and hope that more of the past staff and present will be interested in joining up for; Wood Lake Projects (a Big one coming up April 12, 2008, more information on this will be forthcoming, if interested please contact us), maintaining old and new friendships and most importantly, coming together and keeping Camp Tamerack, Wood Lake Scout Reservation going for another 50 years or more.
