Dear Family & Friends * Hooray for all of us!

Pick any day and come for an hour . . . or the entire time.

There is plenty of room to pitch a tent, park a trailer or

roll out a sleeping bag in a bunk house.

The camp has showers, a full-service kitchen and beautiful scenery.


* Kids . . . you should be begging really hard to come

* Big Kids . . . we've got newlyweds, new babies and

engaged-to-be-married people, too


Who on this planet doesn't like hot dogs, beans and potato salad?

Bring your happy heart to camp and get ready for some of these annual highlights:


Talent Show * Myhren Olympics * Campfires * Red Light Green Light

Jewelry-Making * Swimming * Flag Ceremony * Neatest Bunk Award

Potluck * Questions for Crackers * Fire & Ice * Scavenger Hunt


On the 4th of July we'll have a Family Reunion Potluck at 12:00 Noon.

Bring a favorite dish or two and we'll have a fine feast together.


Our Annual Talent Show will follow immediately after the Potluck.

Bring your best song or act and entertain us all. We all love a good show!


Then...after the Annual Talent Show we'll be having a 4th of July Parade.

We had a Parade a few years ago and it was a hoot - so bring your noise makers and join the fun.


Camp Makuala - Tillamook, OR. - phone#503-842-9665

11.2 miles up Trask River Road - Take a right - Cross the bridge -

Take another right then continue down the road through the forest to camp


For those of you coming from the south, there's a detour due to bridge work and you need to drive through Tillamook and head East on 3rd Street to get to Trask River Road.

Donation Opportunity: We'll be passing the hat for the Lom Church in North Dakota to help them maintain our ancestral cemetery. Bring some pocket change or whatever you can.


Thank you for visiting our family website!

We hope to see you all at camp!! Love, D. Jay and Jerilee
