About

Jim Gibbons is a tall and boisterous fellow who appreciates the quiet things in life.

A great many aspects of the man who is Jim were fashioned through ten summers of camp life—seven at Camp Shewahmegon in Drummond, WI (five as a camper and two years on staff) and three as a counselor at Banner Day Camp in Lake Forest, IL.

Most of Jim’s best stories, and many of his happiest memories, come from the time he spent at summer camp.

This site was created as an effort to put every tale, memory and creative impulse stirred forth from those summers out into the world in hopes of encouraging the continuation of camping friendships strong and deep—be it from his personal experiences and relationships or as a reminder of those happy times for anyone anywhere who had joy brought into their life by a summer at camp.

(And hey! Even if you never went to camp and you just have an inexplicable love for it, well you’re welcome here too!)
