Our August Session has started with a bang! There is always something special about the start of a new session. Camp is full of new faces, new friendships, and lots of excitement as everyone settles in under Old Bald. Opening Day went off without a hitch, and our campers quickly jumped right into Camp life. Between tours, activity sign-ups, swim checks, and getting to know their cabins, it was a busy afternoon, but these girls were all smiles. We wrapped up the day with Opening Campfire, one of our favorite traditions and the perfect way to kick off the session.
