Happy New Year from White Birch Village Resort
 ...Where memories are made!

Eagle

As the busyness of the holiday season is behind us we hope you are looking forward to another vacationing season at White Birch Village Resort. We look forward to seeing many of you again this year.

Did you know that 2012 is a very special year? It marks 30 years that White Birch Village has been in operation. It also marks 90 years that there has been a resort operating on this site. It all began in 1922 with the White Birch Resort Company. In the ninety year history as a resort, Carol and Dick are the longest owners to date. What a legacy they have created. It is thanks to their love, generosity, and vision that White Birch Village Resort is the special vacation destination that it is. To celebrate our rich history we will have surprise celebrations throughout the season this year.

During your years of vacationing here, has an important milestone occurred while on your vacation. Do you have a special memory to share? To celebrate the rich history of the resort we would like to blog about these events and memories. Please email us at office@whitebirchvillage.com with your event or memory, along with pictures, and we will be happy to add it to our blog.

Do you have a favorite dish you like to bring to our weekly picnic? If so, please email us your recipe as we will have the White Birch Village cookbook available for purchase this season. The first edition was printed almost 10 years ago. We will include those recipes along with any new ones we receive.

It is you, our guests, who make running White Birch Village so special to us. We treasure the memories that are made each year and look forward to all the new ones that are yet to be made. May your memories of previous vacations at White Birch Village carry you through until you come and visit us again. Here’s to celebrating 30 years in 2012. Be sure to continue following us on Facebook and our blog.

Charlie continues to be a huge hit with the kids in the summer. They can’t wait to get out and find where he is hidden. It’s so much fun to see the excitement on their faces when they find Charlie and the pride when they find that great hiding spot. Winter Charlie grew his following this past year with over 50 people trying to guess what day he went through the ice. Will you be the winning person this year? Be sure to cast your vote for the 3rd annual “Ice Out” contest. Charlie will set up camp the end of February. Be sure to check the blog for all the information.

This past season love was in the air. We had our first wedding ceremony at the resort on a beautiful day in September at the picnic pavilion. Blessings and congratulations to Dave and Talitha Uhrmann (Dave is a former employee). We also had two engagements here this summer. Congratulations to long time guests, Jon Damby and Travis Lilley, who “popped” the question to their girlfriends while vacationing here this summer.

Treasure Hunts

Adults and children alike had fun with our treasure hunts this past year. The younger kids had fun searching for all the bug clues while the older kids, teens and adults searched for the buried treasure on the pirate treasure hunt. The busiest treasure hunt occurred in August with 55 people participating.

Sport Shows
In February of 2011 we decided to have a booth at the Madison Fishing Expo. It was a big success and we enjoyed it so much, we have decided to expand this year and do three sport shows. If you live nearby come and visit us at the White Birch Village booth. Here are the sport shows we will be attending:

* Madison Fishing Expo - February 24 - 26
* Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Show - March 7 - 11
* Northwest Sport Show in Minneapolis - March 28 - April 1
