CAMP - Camp is in full swing, and we hope you are enjoying your time out here. With the start of Camp though we need to review a few of the rules; Minors in Camp and use of Rider Mowers. From the Rules and Regulations booklet and Illinoisturners.org website - Minors - Minors under the age of eighteen(18) are not allowed to occupy any cottage or building on Turner Camp property unless a responsible member is staying with them.
A legal guardian, or designated adult must remain on campgrounds while the child participates in any program activity or event. Arrangements must be made with the camper should the supervising adult change.
Staff must be notified of the designated adult should it be different from the adult on the registration paperwork. To notify, please complete the Google Form by clicking https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfAHwyc5G0lZZEOu9LXQmJsnXvhUq7bvL4lQ5KgK6Axe_NW6g/viewform?usp=sf_link or the link located at illinoisturners.org.
This form must be completed each time there is a change to the designated adult - failure to do so may result in exclusion from program activities.
Rider Mowers - Riding mowers are approved for grass/general maintenance at and around your cottage. Riding mowers are NOT approved as a mode of transportation around Turner Camp. If you are significantly limited in your ability to get around Camp, then please contact the Turner Camp Committee via This email address is being protected from spambots.

Introducing two more of the Restaurant Team members who help make things happen.
Mary Becker - Mary is married to Dick Becker, comes from the Mutert clan, and is a lifelong Turner. Mary is instrumental in coordinating the set up of the serving area for the Fish Fru every Friday and getting thye serving volunteers set up as they come on board. She also puts the pots, pans, and utensils away after each meal and cleans up the kitchen area to keep us health department inspection ready. Finally, she works with the folks holding special events like parties, celebrations, and Memorials to help ensure the events go smoothly. Rumor has it she ran the kitchen sanitation program at Annapolis. She runs a tight ship! Get that lady a coffee!
Timmy Zbinden - Timmy is married to Judy Zbinden and is another lifelong Turner. In fact, almost every week we hear another story about what went on in his family cottage down by the river. Timmy plays the key role of the gofer on Friday Nights. He goes for food, he goes for supplies, and he goes for anything. He went missing from camp a while in the 70s and 80s. Rumor has it he spent time in a hippie commune and traveled the country in an old bread truck. When he returned to camp after sowing his wild oats, he joined the Fish Fry Crew. Get that man an edible!
Thanks, Scott
