Arlene Dahlerson (left) was appointed head of the newly established Summer Camp program by President Gorghendi Kahn. At the suggestion of his friend and unofficial advisor Janet Lingart, Kahn established the Summer Camp program as a way to familiarize youth with their homeland, and to teach them environmental conservation, community service, patriotism, self-reliance, and other skills of personal enrichment.

Camp Lohikaan was the headquarters of the Summer Camp program, located in the Thunder Mountain area. Dahlerson and the other camp counselors often led children on outings that included camping and spelunking in the many caves and abandoned mines of Rocaterrania.
