Hello, I'm Jacob, and I am excited for my first summer at North Star. I've never been to a camp before. However, my family's cabin is fairly close (Cumberland), so I am familiar with the area. Originally, I am from the suburbs of the Twin Cities and now I'm an econ major at UW-Madison with a German minor. On campus, I have a talk show and music program on the radio station and cross country ski. I played soccer for many years, ran cross country in high school and learned to how to fish from my grandfather. I also love to bike.
