The leaves won't be around much longer

A friendly stroll around Camp brings a couple of images right away. The first being...wow, it's really not summer anymore. The second, a little more startling...wow, when is it going to snow for the first time. Last year Buck Mountain had a solid coating of snow in very late November, just after Thanksgiving. So, the countdown is on. When will the cold white stuff make it's apperance for the first time? Make a guess in the comments section and if you guess correctly, win a Chingachgook Hoodie! Just make sure you leave your name along with your guess!

Family Camp...is a blast of course!

Families came from all over the region to participate in the final family camp weekend of 2009. I am sure they were glad they did too. An fun filled program including EVERY area of Camp plus a hilarious and fun Pumpkin Festival on Saturday night made the weekend worth it. On Saturday, before the festival, the families had the entire high ropes course to themselves for a little while and really motored through the elements. Great job everyone!
From the pictures below, which pumpkin do you think is the best?

A Yoga Weekend at Camp

Sometimes we forget how relaxing and rejuvenating a place Camp can be. This past weekend, over fifty people gathered for a "Spirit, Mind, and Body" retreat and enjoyed all that Camp had to offer, plus many other yoga related activties. The food this weekend feature a number of different types of food that were on the healthier side of things. So, no, there were no macaroni and cheese nuggets to eat, but the food was still unbelievable. If you're into yoga, or even if you're not and want to learn, join us next year for the retreat.
