Review of the CampHacker Podcast
Hello,
I am the Head Chef at a camp in B.C., Canada and my friend Lisa ( who is also the Camp Administrator) and I have been listening to some of the Camp Hacker podcasts from iTunes. I saw the blog entry on reducing sugar in camper diets at Camp Oureau and I love this as it is my mission to improve the “food health” at camp. I was wondering if you had spoken on camp food in one of your podcasts in the past and if you have not would you consider doing so in a future cast. We really love the podcasts, it is such a priviledge to hear from other camps and learn about some of their practice. Thank you!
