June 24th

Main Session is here! We had an amazing Opening Day yesterday, and these campers jumped right into everything at Camp with so much enthusiasm. It has been so fun to see everyone settling in and already embracing Camp life.

It is always so special to watch reunions of old friends and the forming of new friendships. Opening Day was full of unpacking, activity sign-ups, and our Opening Campfire, when the whole camp gathers to sing our favorite camp songs together to kick off the session. We had our first full day of activities today, with campers diving into their day-to-day Camp schedule, and we ended the night with one of our favorite evening programs: Deck the Counselor!

Each cabin creates a skit, dance, or performance, and putting it together on this first full day of Camp serves as a great early bonding opportunity. It’s always amazing to see creativity come to life so quickly and to watch cabins begin to find their personalities. Our lovely JCs (all 24 this session!) hosted the evening, bringing great energy (and jokes) as they introduced and cheered on every cabin while we watched them perform from youngest to oldest.

Some highlights from tonight included a handful of makeovers, lots of cabin name puns, and two passionate dance performances from the cabins of Camelot and Bum's Rest. There was even a cabin that dressed up as the leadership team, aka "Robin’s Nest"! The laughter and cheers from the crowd made it clear that this tradition continues to be a Camp favorite.

We are so excited that our Main Session campers are here! It’s been such a fun start to the session already, and we’re looking forward to all that’s ahead. There’s a lot more to come, and we’re so glad to have everyone here!!
