The campus buzzes with the sounds of adventures, and I love it. Every morning starts with cheering and a song, followed by a flood of our campers moving into forts, the art and building zone, the garden, the animal yards, and the mud kitchen. Kids scour the wetlands and go on hikes. They go fishing at Lake Wintergreen. They make instruments from reeds and bark and leaves. They play water games. They make campfires. They make friends. They make memories.
I can’t quite convey the magic of summer camp on a screen, but I can give you a glimpse into the this world. Click a photo to see the full version.
