7 weeks of summer camp is rare in Wisconsin, but Red Arrow has continued the tradition for 100 years

Noted: Red Arrow first welcomed campers in 1922, with the boys taking trains from Milwaukee and Chicago. To help launch the camp, Razz brought on Paul Waterman, the business manager for MCD, as his co-director, and Rollie Williams, the University of Wisconsin’s first nine-letter athlete, as the athletic program director. For counselors, he hired athletic young men from MCD and UW.
