Sync It Up!

Today couldn’t have been any better; the sun was shining, the lake was clean (thanks to all of the campers picking the lilies for decoration), and at the end of the day, we all came together for one of the favorite evening programs. In the morning I dropped by the tennis courts

Sunday Folly and Merrie-ment

What a day, what a day! I always love Sundays for the food and the company, but today was extra special because we had so many visitors! It was so good to see family, friends, and alumnae return to camp for a service brought to us by John Brantley and a good fried chicken lunch.

July: a Gem of a Month

What a beautiful day to be at camp on this first day of July! Today, I made my way over to the Jazz dance class and practiced my best turns. Afterwards, I visited swimming down on the lake where the campers were learning freestyle. The water looked very inviting, but I managed to

Clouds but No Frowns

Today may have had gloomy weather, but spirits were high here at Merrie-Woode. This morning, I visited the canoeing and sailing classes down at the docks and watched them practice their sculling, even in the drizzly weather. I then made my way up to King Arthur’s Court which was

Nothing Could Be Finer

The days seems to be going by faster as we get further into the session, but Thursdays always make me pause and enjoy the moments just a bit more. This morning I visited the archery field and sat in on a few rounds of practice. I’m not so bad an archer myself, but I’d much rather

You Can Never Have Too Much Fun or Wear Too Much Sunscreen

Another beautiful day on Lake Fairfield and I can feel the session coming into full swing. The sun was shining, the campers were buzzing with energy, and even the bullfrogs seemed to chug-a-wump a bit louder. Today I journeyed up to the compost pile with the Earthworks class to

Who’s On First, Tajar’s On Second

The first Tootie Bun Tuesday of the session was a rousing success with half of the camp adorned with two buns that made them resemble my friends the field mice. Today was a nearly cloudless day and the shining sun made me want to stay all day down at the docks which were quite

Action and Auciton

Today was the first day of activities, and it was most definitely one to remember. After breakfast and the very first Devotional in the new Castle (woohoo!), I made my way down to the Nature Nook just in time to greet the sheep and the chickens with a Farm and Garden class.

A Sunny, Funny, and Punny Sunday

Today, the first Sunday of the session, was as It began with the special Sunday treat of cinnamon rolls and quiche, followed by a service in Chapel led by Jim himself. I watched from the top of the ivy tree as he spoke about mindfulness moments and how to find a moment to absorb

Camp Roads and Campfires

Camp is back in session and a new round of campers has arrived to join us for five weeks of Merrie-ment, frivolity, and fun! I started this exciting day off by waking up in my treehouse home to find that cars were already coming down the camp road at 9:00. Soon, camp was once
