Today was a day full of goodbyes…… We not only had to say farewell to our youngest friends in the It’s My First Time Mini session, but we also had to watch our friends going on the backpacking trip leave us as well. They were dropped off in the Alleghany forest and will be out, alone in the wilderness for 8 whole days! They will be back to rejoin civilization next week, Thursday. We wished them good luck and anxiously wait to hear all about their new adventures when they return.

It sure has been a hot one today at camp. Both the pool and the lake have been busy with campers all day trying to beat the heat. Our campers choice activities after dinner tonight included two options that involved getting a little wet and wild. They could participate in either some fun water sports, Mermaid lessons at the pool, or a less wet but still cool option of dungeons and dragons. We are down two programs, but our spirits are still high.
