In this episode of the MINOCQUA CAST I am joined by Billy and Michael Fried, of Camp Agawak fame! Billy has been a key member of the community for years - as a young camper, summer counselor, Min-Aqua-Bat President, business owner and Minocqua Town Board Supervisor, offering years of service to improve the place we love.

Michael's path to the Northwoods was different, and even though he spent the last 15 years traveling for Camp Counselors USA, he is making his way back to Minocqua where he spent 20 years working at Camp Agawak... The roots are deep, and we examine the burning question in our souls, "Why Minocqua?"

In the first episode of the Minocqua Cast, host Eric Kleinschmidt explores the question, “Why Mincouqa?,” with long-time Minocqua resident and friend, Bryon Black. Bryon is the Executive Director of the Northwoods Wildlife Center and the President the Lakeland Area Mountain Biking Organization. On the show, Bryon talks about his time in Minocqua as a kid and teenager, meeting his wife and raising his family here, his wife’s family’s resort, Black’s Cliffs, and the undeniable uniqueness of the area’s natural resources and sense of community/people. A behind-the-scenes look at the valuable work under way at the Wildlife Center and a true celebration of “our favorite small town,” you won’t want to miss the Minocqua Cast’s inaugural show (or the Wildlife Center’s incoming call to assist with the discovery of baby opossums that Bryon gets while Eric the show was recording!)
