An “S” Day for the Ages

LS 2While every day at camp is awesome, every once in a while the stars align to create an epic day that will be talked about for a long time. Monday, July 4th, 2016 was that kind of day!

Not only was it the Fourth of July, but it also happened to be an “S” Day! We began the day with an incredible breakfast of chocolate chip, M&M and blueberry pancakes, coffee cake, and other great treats. We then moved on to an amazing morning of bumper tubing and various other activities around camp. After lunch, we feasted on ice cream sundaes, but that was just the beginning! It was then time for our annual Laurel South Carnival filled with rides, games, snow cones, cotton candy and of course, a cook-out dinner. Once the sky grew darker — we were treated to one of the most amazing fireworks displays ever!!!

By the time the day was over we were exhausted and ready for a great night sleep — our heads full of memories to last a lifetime!!!

Reunited and It Feels So Good!

blog photo 2How quickly the first week flew by! Our first “S” Day was a smash. Saco and Kineo had the run of Splashtown and had an incredible time. Baxter and Allagash had an awesome trip to Sparetime, where they bowled, played games and Laser Tag. Seventh Grade Nation spent the day cruising around Old Orchard Beach. While all of this was going on, our 8th Graders saw some of the most beautiful sights in Maine during their trip to Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor. And, of course, the CIT summer was officially kicked off with the White Water Rafting trip on the Kennebec River.

While everyone had fun and made memories which will last a lifetime, camp is truly at its best when we are all together. Programming is back on track. Intercamp games and tournaments are rolling.  And today, the first Fly Fishing expedition of the summer heads out.

It’s been only seven days on the calendar, but we pack as much fun into each day and every moment as possible!
