Logging Camp ChristmasOnce a year KAO turns the Backus Community Center's social spaces into a backwoods logging camp and the event has become a local tradition. Last year's Logging Camp Christmas had 140 people attend while over 70 volunteers from around the community decorated, sang, cooked food, waited on tables, washed dishes, and provided "support." The Logging Camp Christmas is KAO's yearly fundraiser for operating costs, and the community truly shows its generous support.
