a legacy worth giving to
Since 1919, Owakonze has weathered many changes, from temporary closures to joyous re-openings, but the one constant has been the enduring community that shares the unique experiences one can only have on Child’s Island. By supporting Owakonze, you help ensure that future generations can create lasting memories, such as having some laughs over a meal at Anderson Hall or learning to pitch-up a tent on the ball field.
