Everyone, this is Dan’s brother, Ben Spoonhower.

Ben, this is everyone visiting the official camp web site.

As was the custom for Spoonhowers of his generation, Ben completed his post-secondary education at Cornell University. Ben currently makes his home in Baltimore, but travels frequently for his work. He thinks it’s alright. Chances are, he’d rather talk to you about other stuff. Like sports: he skateboarded as a youngster, played lacrosse at Cornell, is now an avid golfer, plans to learn to snowboard, and will probably do just fine in the Tug of War and Three-Legged Race. Or music – you may find him wielding a guitar at some point. Or, if you’re sitting around the campfire looking to chat someone up about Policy Analysis, Ben’s probably your guy. That was his college major.

Ben will be making his camping debut at Spoonhowopic, and is excited for the experience. He’s been a big fan of Kathy Copic for many years, and is looking forward to meeting more members of the clan.
