During the off season I teach 18-21 year old young adults with developmental disabilities adult independent living skills (preparing them and their families for life after school). I get my fair share of disc golf in as a friend and I run a winter charity disc golf series (13 weeks long) called Winter Warriors. We play every week, regardless of the weather, at a different course in the Denver area and all money raised goes to The Food Bank of the Rockies (this season we raised almost $9,000). North Star is my home and family away from home. We're so lucky to be able to spend our summers in such a beautiful place with such amazing people. Looking forward to seeing the team of 2013 in June at North Star!
Favorite Tombstone pizza type: Gotta be old school Tombstone...no alternative will suffice! Thank you Andy for bringing them back! For me, it's the 4 Meat.
Favorite project at camp (that you don’t necessarily instruct): Disc golf! No place I would rather be playing disc golf than on the North Star Camp Disc Golf Course (aka the NSCDGC)!
Your three favorite movies of all time: Dumb and Dumber (NEVER stops being funny), Rocky 4 (I cried when Apollo died), The Princess Bride (I wanted to be Fred Savage)
Preferred wanegan offering: For some reason, Skittles just taste better at camp.
Best evening program at camp: The Friday Night Service is by far my favorite time of every week.
Favorite cartoon character: Spongebob Squarepants (Phineas and Ferb are a close second).
Favorite camp (card) game: Hearts. Used to be THE camp card game, pre-Euchre.
If you could have lunch with any two people, dead or alive, who would they be?: Kim McCormack (just the two of us) and my Grandpa Pete Nielsen (used to own Pine Crest resort across the lake, sadly passed in 1992).

What is your dream job: CIT Director at North Star Camp for Boys. Any way we can make this a year round position?
A little known fact about yourself: Back in 2000 I was a counselor for then 15 year old camper Andy Shlensky (in Cabin Manor).
