B-I-N-G-O!

What word describes bright colors, a fun time, and dance parties like you’ve never seen before? Bingo! You guessed it! In case it wasn’t obvious yet, tonight’s Evening Program was Bingo! We dressed in our brights and tights and gave a youthful twist to the notoriously senior

And Sold!

On this terrific Tuesday, camp was abuzz with activities left and right! Some avid hikers headed out with Mountaineering for a full day adventure on Maidenhair Falls, and another group did a half day slip and slide at Grimshaws! Although we’ve only been here a few days, it feels

Hip Hip Hooray for Opening Day!

I rarely wake up before 4:30 in the morning, but Opening Day is always the exception! I thought I’d be the first soul in line, but no, Main Session has out done me again! The Merrie-Woode tailgate at the crack of dawn never ceases to amaze me. The whispers and screams, the

It’s Just Goodnight and Not Goodbye

Oops! Sometimes Tajar and technology aren’t in sync, which explains why in today’s pictures, there are a lot of Sunday Activity pictures. Those sadly got left behind when I uploaded the Sunday pictures. Please forgive my mistake, they’re here now! Bum’s Rest played a prank on all

*Crying in Chapel*

Don’t let the title deceive you. A lot of them were tears of joy, but not all of them. We cried out of thankfulness for an amazing session. We cried as the oldest campers reflected on their years spent here in this place of rarest beauty. We cried at how fortunate we are to have

Following the Gleam and Happy as Can Be

Sundays bring unparalleled pleasures: cinnamon rolls, quiche, cookout, and (usually) Campfire. But, with today being the last Sunday of this session (I’m not crying, you are), we began our traditional Evening Programs. But before I jump ahead of myself, let’s recap what an

Celebrating in Style

Just another day in paradise (as Captain Doug always says)!  The cool morning gave way to a beautiful and sunny day!  On the lake, the campers were having a mighty fine time in kayaks and canoes, as well as swimming and generally splashing around. To dry off, I popped into
