You had a whole lot of fun on your vacation at Jellystone Park, Caledonia, Wisconsin. Our Rec Staff took lots of pictures of all the fun and will be posting pictures weekly in this spot. Be sure to come here to look for yourself, your kids and your grandkids. When you spot yourself, tell all your friends and relatives to come see what a great time you had. Maybe next time they will come with you.

Last year on our Christmas in July weekend, Courtney (pictured here), was severely injured in a car accident on her way to work. She was scheduled to work and be Mrs. Claus but clearly didn't quite make it to work that day. It took her several months of rehab before she could walk again. Many co-workers and campers prayed for her recovery and for that we are very grateful. We value all of our employees and they so quickly become like extended family here at Jellystone Park. We are blessed to have her still working with us and we were thrilled she made it as "Mrs. Claus" for our Christmas in July Weekend!
