Day One- Camp 2022 In Full Swing

The camp excitement crescendos with the arrival of the bus. 20 campers were met by the excited buddies displaying signs of welcome with their names on them.

After a brief safety discussion and lunch, it was off to the lake and down to the Activity Center to check out the cool things campers can do. Campers could be seen rushing from activity to activity.

The Drama Team started play practice with costume fittings and rehearsals. This year's play is centered around Esther, a poor girl who was made queen, and later rescued her people for a certain death.  The story will unfold throughout the week.

Day One is also a time for new campers to receive their quilts. This has been a longstanding tradition for our camp.  The Linus Project is a group of quilters who have been providing quilts for our campers for a number of years. The quilts are cherished by our campers, and many have turned into keepsakes for campers long after they attend our camp. We are grateful to the Project Linus group for their many years of service to our camp.
