Episode #28: The Stuedemann Duck Camp Legacy

11/08/23 • 61 min

Corey and Kaj Podcast presented by Cedar Run Decoy Company

Corey Lucas swung through Iowa and Illinois on his way back from waterfowling with buddies in North Dakota to spend time with the Stuedemann family at their duck camp on the Upper Mississippi River. Drake (third generation), Dave (second generation), and Don Stuedemann (first generation) join Corey around the table to unpack the history of their duck camp and what it means to them.
Don lays out the origin of the camp and what it has meant to him and his family. He describes it as the glue that help holds his family together at times. The passion and detail in which he tells his story shows the importance of this camp, and his wise words about what type of waterfowling community he envisions and appreciates should be heard by all of us.
This fascinating story is a "must listen" episode and the Stuedemann family is a model for how duck hunting should be.
God's timing is perfect... Don Stuedemann passed away 8 days after recording this podcast, allowing his story to be preserved for the family and their future generations.
