NORTH FORK – The summer heat didn’t dampen enthusiasm as the crowds turned out to enjoy the 59th annual Loggers Jamboree this weekend at the North Fork Rec Center.
Nate Hodges captured the title of Top Logger for the 10th time, taking first place in five of the ten events in which he competed.
Nate won the title four years in a row from 2005 to 2008, then again in 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2017.
He also trained the Minarets Precision Axe Throw Team for the competition as part of Justin Hough’s Senior Legacy Experience.
All the proceeds from this annual event go to the North Fork Boosters’ General Fund to maintain the Rec Center and Town Hall, and to various community projects and services.
