- Overview
- Beginning at Winter Camp IX, we had a daily newsletter, published each day of camp to remind participants of what they'd done the day before. Like many traditions, the daily newsletter created a great deal of heat and was eventually abandoned in favor of a mid-summer edition.
The mid-summer edition, like its predecessor, was well received, but not well supported. Even the mid-summer news was eventually supplanted by the arrival of the Winter Camp Universe, which resumed the process of daily updates, sometimes made right in the course of Winter Camp itself and shared with the outside world.
Now, to complete the circle, those older editions of the newsletter are being published on the Winter Camp Universe. - Winter Camp XI
- Winter Camp XI saw a very different approach to the newsletter, with at least three different publishers producing independent issues. The official newsletter wasn't published until Day Four. Prior to that were at least two issues of the Allogagan (published by Jeff Rand and Steve Donohue) and two issues of the Free Our Republic news, which were published by the residents of Clearwater cabin.
There were a total of newsletters published at this camp.
