Calumet - Custom Ornament
Last year we were assigned the
fun task of creating a custom ornament for Camp Calumet.
The camp was founded in 1959 and is located on picturesque Lake Ossipee, in Freedom, NH. Calumet
is a year-round ministry of the Lutheran churches in New England. The ornament design they chose features a starry sky, pine trees, two figures beside a bonfire and a large setting sun in the background. A small crescent moon is cut out of the ornament. The name of the camp is featured on a banner across the bottom and 2019 is written across the top. The back of the ornament shows Lake Ossipee with sailboats afloat as well as a canoe rack.
