CONNECTICUT

Wolf Den Club #103

We currently have nine family members with children between the ages of seven and nineteen.  You are only asked to have fun, be adventuresome, and somewhat  motivated.  And, follow NAFCA’s 7-C’s of camping; Care, Caution, Courtesy, Cleanliness, Cooperation, Conservation, and Common Sense.

We’re always looking for new members.  If you join our club, you are required to join North American Family Campers Association (NAFCA).  You can check out the NAFCA website at: http://www.nafca.org/

There are two club chapters in Connecticut; Wolf Den #103 and Mattabessett #86.  Wolf Den Chapter includes members from the Northeast corner of the state.  Mattabessett Chapter has members from the western side of Connecticut. 

We camp any where they’ll accept us.  There are no restrictions to where we travel.  We like to do occasional “themed,” camp outs, and try to camp as often as possible with our sister club, Mattabessett # 86. 

We have a annual Spring Safari in May hosted by NAFCA, and a Fall Frolic hosted by a Connecticut Chapter, and we alternate chapters each year.

We have meetings a couple times a year. 

We have a Christmas Gathering with a Secret Santa Swap.

We have a winter trip to Cape Cod with entertainment.

A WORD FROM OUR PRESIDENT

My wife Kim, and I joined Wolf Den in 1999. We were sponsored by the Goodwin's. I became President in 2010.
We were sponsored by Wilfred and Renee Harwood.  I became President in 2003.  Wolf Den’s presidents before me are my stepping stone to where we are today.  I learned much from each of them.  I often seek advise from our two longest family members; the Harwood’s, and the Taylor’s.  As I seek advice from them, my knowledge and experience continues to amaze me with the history of our club.  The club does not function without the help of our members.

We continue to bring in new members each year to join.  Our current members are a tremendous group of people.  Great friendship, good conversation, and fun loving.  One BIG happy family!  I encourage all to join a camping club to experience a life time of enjoyment that cannot be explained otherwise.
