We love these guys. It makes us miss summer so much. Friends new and old gathered one mid-summer weekend for some classic camp debauchery. This is what happens when you mix shot-skis, chicken wings & midget dirt-bikes with a Bare Mutants jam session. Film credits: CINEMATOGRAPHY: Erik Law EDITING: David Burkart MUSIC: Bare Mutants
HERE IS THE LISTING: we’ve been watching this house for over a year, and did a post on it last September. It was a foreclosure that the bank bought back for $120k, and they just put it on the market to unload for $65. if we were in the market, I’d offer $57k and snatch it up. Here’s the original post- right up the street from us. * SITS ON FOUR WOODED LOTS. = big yard. * 150 FEET FROM THE PRIVATE BEACH AND BOAT LAUNCH. * SITS ON A HILL, DECK WITH LAKE VIEWS. * SECLUDED ON 3 SIDES BY…
Bless GQ for celebrating the fact that folks can fill their homes with thriftstore furniture and own up to it. Support your local resale shops! It was Valentines Day (which is also David’s birthday) 2002.

check out his film We somehow tend to attract the creative set. Artists, musicians, cooks and makers of all sorts. So when a group of art school kids recently came to pay us a visit at camp, they fit in like family. And that’s how we met our new young friend Richard. On that particular late fall weekend, we were shooting a feature story for SweetPaul magazine, and Richard jumped in right away to assist. Without being asked, he was a key grip, prop-hauling, behind-the-scene shooting all-round helpful guy. (picture a nearly 7foot tall dude strapped with cameras and a…
In our continued effort (and New Year’s resolution) to pull together the stories of our numerous guests, contributors and collaborators, we introduce the newest addition to wandawega.com. It’s a teensy musical note on the bottom of wandawega.com . It takes you to the story of our on-going love affair with music. It’s called: “Music At Camp”: From music videos, to recording sessions, to press photos, to full-blown live events, music has always been an integral part of life at Camp Wandawega. To answer the question “what’s the perfect soundtrack for Camp Wandawega?” it also features playlists from a few friends in the music…
Over the years, we’ve had a considerable amount of filmmakers grace the grounds and create all sorts of moving pictures: Music videos. Short films. Indie films. Brand films. Behind-the-scenes cuts. Network episodes. Event films. Until now, they’ve been treated much like a pile of polaroids in a shoebox. So in the spirit of new year resolutions, we’ve pulled together some of our favorites in one happy little new home called THE CAMP WANDAWEGA FILMS. Here you will find dozens of creations from cinematographers, editors and directors that we are proud to call friends. Check back soon for new episodes…
