Hi! I'm kenji. I'm 25 years old, half Japanese and live in Guadalajara, Mexico.
I like playing sports (played basketball, baseball, racquetball, and tennis), creative arts, music, movies and meeting new people. I'm very open minded so I like to learn just about anything and make the best out of every scenario.
This is my first time going to the camp so I'm excited for this new experience! I'll be helping at the tennis courts assisting with coaching and as counselor, but I'm mostly there to make the richest experience for everyone at the camp including myself, help with everything that I can and make this the best summer for the campers. My mission is to help mold the younger minds into the best version of themselves, to help them overcome their fears and insecurities so they can unlock their full potential.
You don't know me yet but you got a friend in me so don't be shy to say HI if you see me!

Hello everyone, my name is Sam Goodman and I'm excited to be back for my 11th year at Menominee and my 3rd year on staff. You can usually find me at archery, riflery, or sometimes on the tennis courts. For some background about me, I come from Deerfield, Illinois, and I'm currently attending Miami University as a freshman.

Hey there! My name is Jack Myerthall, I’m 18 years old, and I’m from Phoenix, Arizona. This year is going to be my 8th summer at camp and my 2nd summer as a counselor. I’m super excited to see all of the familiar faces from previous years and meet all of the new ones this year. The easiest place to come and find me at camp is the waterfront. Like last year, I’m going to be working with the waterfront staff this year as a lifeguard/boat driver. I love waterskiing and wakeboarding and I love teaching campers how to do these activities even more. When I’m not at the waterfront, I will most likely be in the hockey rink teaching the boys different techniques or reffing games. I played hockey for 12 years, and I greatly enjoy coaching it and watching our teams take over the competition. I always like sharing my knowledge and experiences from camp with others, and I am always there to talk whenever someone is in need. See you all this summer!
