Head Counselor

Hi y’all! My name is Joshua Borja and I am so excited to be back at Camp Leelanau as one of your Head Counselors! This is my 13th summer at Camp, but it seems like only yesterday when I drove down Port Oneida for the first time. During the school year, I attend Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, where I am currently majoring Political Science and minoring in Spanish. If I were an 80's WWF Star, I think my name would be Señor Big Blast and I would have to wear a luchador mask.

Head Counselor

Hello internet readers.  My name is Donald Keough.  I study journalism and make words good inside the computer at Dennison College in Ohio.  This summer I will be editing Camper Reports in the Headquarters cabin for Camp Leelanau.  So all parents can expect to read human sounding words regarding their campers.  My wrestler name is no longer The Mole, because I have arrived fully invested as admin, I will now be called The HumanWordMaker.

CT Counselor and Trips

My name is Aaron Nutwell aka “Professor Speed” (back when I was an 80’s wrestler). I am a rising senior at Principia College and I am so stoked to be back in the most beautiful place on earth working with this year’s CT class, especially getting out on some amazing trips! 

Trips

Hi, my name is Jacob Warrick and I’m in my final semester of school at Principia College. I am so excited to be back up at camp this summer for another year of leading the trips program. I am really looking forward to getting back into Canada for some big trips, and hopefully, I won’t lose the map this time! Lastly, my 80s WWF wrestler name would definitely be “The Chenguin” due to the skin tight cheetah suit I would wear with a penguin mask to hide my identity. 

Day Camp & Trips

Waterfront Director

Hey Y'all! My name is Drew Bosman and I'm super excited to be on Lake Michigan this summer directing our waterfront! I just finished up my freshman year at the University of South Carolina as a marketing major, and I can't wait to be back up North for another amazing summer at Camp. I was in fact an 80's wrestling star a few years back, and I went by the name Houdini because my signature move was taking one look at my opponent and then suddenly disappearing from the ring. 

Tennis & Music

Hey! My name is Teagan Hubbard. I’m currently a freshman studying economics and music at UC Berkeley, but I’m originally from Highland Park, Illinois. This summer I’ll be teaching Tennis. I can’t wait to see all the familiar friends and new faces in a few months. When I’m not at camp, one of my side hustles is fighting in the WWE ring as "Teag-N-T."

Canoeing & Rock Climbing

Hello My name is Mark Nutwell and I will be the Climbing and Canoeing Counselor at camp this summer! I am planning to attend Principia College in Elsah for this Fall. I’m really excited to get out on the Lake and do some great paddling, but also spend some time in the pine forest on the climbing wall! If I was a 80’s WWF Star my name would be Mark-E-Mark-Maniac because I would win every match.

Waterskiing

Hi, my name is Ethan Hoff. I will be attending Principia College as a Freshman, and I call St. Louis, Missouri, home. This year, I can't wait to be on the beautiful blue waters of Glen Lake, teaching waterskiing. Being my first year as a member of the Crib team, I am excited to experience camp in a new way and to guide campers through their journey at Leelanau. If I were an '80s WWF Star, my wrestler name would be The Shelf Shock. 

Border Camp

Hi everyone, my name is Angel Cooley-Knotts and I can’t wait to get back to Camp this summer and teach your sons the important skills of Border Camp.  Fire building, camping skills, and knots are the key to success in all aspects of life at home and at Camp.  I’m honored to be the one teaching the fellas those skills this summer.  If I were an 80’s WWF star my name would be Porkchop Knotts, because we’ll be cooking it up at Border Camp!

RCA & Kayaking

Peter Watia.  I will attend the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse and live in La Crosse, Wisconsin.  I will be teaching RCA.  I can't wait to connect with the campers, build meaningful relationships, and grow together through all the fun and challenges.If I were an 80’s WWF Star, my wrestling name would be The Glowhouse Grappler.

Archery

My name is Reed Risner. I am from Saint Louis, Missouri and I will be attending Santa Clara University next year. I will be teaching Archery this summer. I am so excited to be a counselor at camp this summer to help all the campers grow as Christian Scientists and men. My 80’s WWF Star name would probably be Rapidfire Reed because I am teaching archery. I am looking forward to this exciting summer.

Silversmithing

Hi.  I’m Colten Roberts.  I look forward to returning to Camp as a counselor and teaching Silversmithing.  I’ve been keeping a keen eye on the commodities market and as much as I love sailing and other activities at Camp, teaching Silversmithing seems to be the best long term approach to achieve my goals.  If I were a professional wrestler I’d be called the Trumpeter.

Landsports & Mountain Biking

My name is Derek Schauman, I call home St. Louis, Missouri,  and I just graduated from Principia High School and will be a freshman at Principia College this fall. I will be teaching Land Sports this summer, and I am super excited to glorify God at camp this summer. If I were an '80s WWF wrestler, my name would be Derek "The Stringbean" Schauman.

Photos

Hi, my name is Cole W. Harrison the 1st. I am a senior at Principia College with a Major in Business Administration and a Minor in FSH (Facial Hair Styles). This summer I am teaching the activity of smiling and saying cheese. I am thrilled to the bone to be back at my 2nd home this summer and to be working with people I consider family. If I were to be a WWE wrestler (which could be somewhere in my future), my name would be "White Thunder" because when lightning spikes, thunder strikes!

Photos

Hello and thank you for sending your children to camp this summer! My name is Nate Berdeaux and I'm from St. Louis, Missouri working as a carpenter. This summer, I have the wonderful responsibility of taking photos for all the eager parents waiting at home, so expect to get some great action shots! What I'm really looking forward to this summer is being able to capture the joy and enthusiasm on all the campers faces while they're enjoying their favorite activities. To answer this year's wonderful improv question, my 80's WWE wrestler name would be BERD, because I'll be flying in from the top rope!

Riding Director

Hello! I am Luke Greenman. I’ve spent this last year working at both Camp and in Nashville,TN but am thrilled to now be calling Northern Michigan home. I will be teaching whatever Weldon decides to fill this sentence with prior to Camp starting. It is hard to find words that describe my excitement for Camp this summer, but if I had to try it would be supremely largely extraordinarily excited for Camp! Finally, if I was a WWF Star my Wrestler Name would be “The Big Bird”.

Sailing

Hi Everyone!  Mark Hoffman here.  I'm so excited to go sailing with you on beautiful Lake Michigan. Being on a sailboat makes every day an adventure.  Most days, you'll enjoy the sunshine and waves as you zip around the lake.  Other days are peaceful and calm as you take in the beauty of the water and Pyramid Point. And for experienced sailors, the really windy days are a great challenge for you to take one of the sailboats on a solo trip and listen for Divine Mind to help guide you back to shore.  If I was a 80's pro wrestler my name would be Stretch because every summer I go to camp, I grow a little bit taller!  I studied architecture, and now I'm a real estate broker, and I help people find their next house or place to live. This past year I have lived in Traverse City, Panama City Beach Florida, and most recently Boston where I have been helping to give tours of The Mother Church and the Mapparium at the Mary Baker Eddy Library.  My dream is to design and build a neighborhood inspired by the values of Camps Leelanau and Kohahna.

Nature & KOH Riflery

Clark Shutt.  The man, the legend, is coming back to serve at Camp Leelanau & Kohahna.  We should all aspire to have the humility and grace to return to Camp as a retirement job and serve as needed.  This summer Clark will be teaching Riflery to Kohahna and Nature to Leelanau.  He’ll also be schooling many young men in a little game called Mumblypeg!  We are honored to have him home!
