Hi, Wendy! I also went to Camp Northern Hills. I talk about it a bit on my blog today at Girl Scout Betsy. There is a site that has the original patch on it. You need to scroll down to see it. I loved my time at Northern Hills. What a great camp. I think Marie told me that the camp was sold to a movie company. http://www.vintagegirlscout.com/campWI.html. Marie was a counselor at Northern Hills. Her camp name was George. She lives in Louisville, KY now.
Hi Wendy!! I too was a camper at Northern Hills and worked as a “cindy” in the kitchen one of the final summers that the camp was owned by the Girl Scouts. I have very fond memories of that camp!!
Hey Wendy…love reading about all your adventures for work. What kind of job do you have that allows you these awesome opportunities..take care

Hi– A few years late to his post but I am happy to see others talking about Northern Hills- What is the FB group? Any idea of the address or the area. I am trying to find it on a map. I also heard it was sold to a movie studio and I am curious what happened to the land.
I read your post about camp northern hills. I led a trip with GT to
Pictured Rocks in 1978. Were you part of it? There is a Northern Hills Facebook page that keeps many of us connected.
I think that was the trip I was on. I don’t remember what my camp name was that year but I do remember getting a tape from you of many of the camp songs.
