2017 at WAW was a milestone year. Some of the highlights include:

• Al and Kay Lamovec donate the entire 255 acre camp and improvements to the WAW non-profit corporation.
  

  Early Spring 2017 WAW Campground featuring  tenting sites and six sites with electrical hookups

  

  Fall 2017 WAW Lodge

• Scheduled 2015-2016 logging was 90% completed. The 4-season activity in 2017 had some restrictions on scheduling events due to required heavy equipment and stress on roads and trails.
• The late fall 2016 dining and conference center addition was completed and integrated into the camp in 2017.
