Windsor Mountain Legends
At Windsor Mountain, we thrive on play and imagination. One way we lean into this is by celebrating and incorporating the Windsor Mountain Legends into morning meetings, evening activities, and special events at camp!
Bollywogger – A giant mutant beaver that lives in the lake and roams camp to search for candy hidden in bunks by campers. If he finds the candy, he eats it all and then poops in their shoes. The nerve. While his behavior has a pretty high “ick” factor, the Bollywogger is mostly misunderstood.
Jabberwocky – Terrible two-bodied creature. Victim of a freak cave-in of a mining operation owned by a man named John Abberwocky. They now wander camp in search of their old boss.
John McGinty – Former lumberjack. After falling on hard times as a former lumberjack, he has struggled to find his next career path. In fact, he has a very hard time keeping jobs but he sure keeps trying. He tries to use his axe for various roles which doesn’t always pan out. Old habbits comeback in the work place, he tends to loose control and CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP! This guy just cannot catch a break.
Paul and Paula Bunyan – You may have heard of these two legendary giants and babe, their big blue ox. Legend is they made the lake by spilling a drop of their coffee, and use the trees in the red pine forest as toothpicks. We celebrate this pair second session with a pancake breakfast and lumberjack-tivities!
Lemony Magee – Lemony means well and just wants to be accepted as part of the WMI legends crew. He made his way to WMI after not being accepted for his Lemony self at another camp. Don’t worry, there is always a happy ending for Lemony.
Rolo Booth – Mean person, constantly trying to steal the deed to camp. This one is better not spoken about. We heard this evening activity is not to be missed…
Now we cannot forget about some of our legends that have come and gone throughout the years. Legends like Crazy Creek Cragglemore, Unicornhead Johnston, and Little foot were created by campers and staff. We are excited to continue to celbrate our legends that have stood the test of time and to welcome new ones created by the imagination of our camp community.
