Join Kosta and his guest: Karen Rathgeber Hale, Director of Camp Nakanawa. I hope you packed the bug spray, because this week we're going to Camp Nakanawa.

In this episode: Camp Nakanawa is over 100 years old. As we’ve discussed, this is more than a camp, it’s tradition. How do you weigh the importance of preserving cherished rituals versus embracing new ideas, especially in an age of rapid cultural and technological change? Being away from home for the first time is scary. For many young people going to camp is the first time they have true independence. Why is this important? How does Camp Nakanawa help to make the most of this opportunity? We talked about this earlier in the episode you started going to camp in 1974, and you’ve seen it evolve and grow over the past 50 years. What are you glad has stayed the same?
