Camp is OPEN!

Hello All!

This weekend was full of hard work, great people, and most of all fun!  Saturday was our Spring Volunteer Day - our annual day to get things in ship-shape for summer.  The red chairs came out, the units were opened, the windows cleaned, and ALL the leaves raked away.  The place looks immaculate!  Our Youth Advisory Council girls even raked out Blueberry and Sassafrass, our camp sites on the other side of the bog.

While our volunteers were busy at Camp, Gary and I were in Hesperia manning the rock wall for Project FOCUS's STEM competition.  We had kids racing to climb to the top, first-timers climbing for the first time, and we even convinced a few of the chaperones to give it a try!

Setting up the wall for the first time this year - and carabiners!

On Sunday was our Spring Open House, and the YAC girls did an amazing job showing off camp to new and returning campers and their families.  Kids playied with the magic sand, ate popcorn, played Spikeball, watched our amazing video, and made new friends!  There's only nine weeks left until the first session of camp starts and I am so excited!

Happy Camping!
