Fun on the High Ropes Course!
What an awesome weekend getting to know new and returning families alike. The weather was great and the company was even better! Our Father-Son Weekend is perfect for those guys that are coming to camp for the first time or just starting to think about camp, but not yet signed up.
Our weekend kicked off on Friday afternoon with some time for the guys to find their way around and relax, then it was off to dinner and some great group games to wrap up the night. Saturday was a fun-filled day with some options for out of camp trips to DuPont State Forest or a float down the French Broad River. In camp, we had all sorts of things to keep the guys busy including riflery and archery, the High Ropes Course, fishing, lake canoeing, disc golf, hiking, tennis, the climbing tower, and several other options to introduce the boys and dads to camp. We wrapped up Saturday night with a great campfire! Some fun songs and a story told by Dan Noland. We washed it all down with classic s’mores and some intense dodge-ball to wrpa up the night! Sunday was just as fun, although we only had until lunch to get all of our fun in before leaving. What a great weekend!!!
There are about two hundred pictures from the weekend. I am pretty sure we got everyone, I hope you enjoy them. Follow the link at the top to see the pictures. You will need to use the login that came in the parent pack for the summer…ask mom, she knows what it is :). Speaking of mom, don’t miss our MOM (Mothers on the Mountain) Weekend, September 16-18, 2011; an opportunity for just mom and her friends to see the other side of camp for once. Come and be catered by our awesome staff for the weekend as you see camp from your son’s perspective. Details will be coming soon!
If you know of anyone who is still thinking about camp for the summer there are a number of spots in our Starter Camp that runs August 15-20, 2011. Give us a call if you are interested.
I sure enjoyed spending time with all of you this past weekend! What a great group of boys with wonderful mentors! Thanks for coming! We kick off the summer in just under a month. We will see several of you back for our June Session or later in the summer. Enjoy the rest of the school year and safe travels back to camp!
Sincerely,
Don Gentle
