Current Entry: Anonymous Frostys
An enduring tradition of the Winter Camp grocery shopping trip each Christmas Eve is the purchase of a round for Frostys for the crew following lunch at Wendy's. For many years, these were purchased by the oldest shopper present and retrieved by the youngest. The shoppers for Winter Camp XXII were surprised when a tray of Frostys was delivered to their table with the comment that they were "from an anonymous donor". Considerable speculation as to the desserts' source ensued, centering on Ron Donohue, Steve Donohue, John Howey, and Dave Milon. The mysterious Frostys appeared again before Winter Camp XXIII, and eventually Occasional Visitor took credit for sending them. For Winter Camp XXIV, OV's true identity was revealed, and while Kristie Matz provided the Frostys for the group, the anonymity was lost and a 2-year tradition ended. A new tradition kicked in the next year when Kristie sprung for a second round under her own name, which she did several times before the cost of the Frostys reverted to the oldest shopper.
