Day #2 is underway, and it’s hard to believe how much fun we’ve already had!
Our campers traveled from far and wide, and they’ve settled in beautifully. Yesterday was a fantastic first day, with everyone getting to know their new bunkmates, classes, and enjoying a packed schedule of sports, learning, and meals.
To help overcome jet lag and fatigue, we had an early lights-out, and this morning, campers were up bright and early, eager to start the day. Some even got in some impromptu sports before lineup!
Section C has already headed out on their first trip of the season – we’ll share details soon.
Important reminders for parents:
Bunk and class lists will be emailed to you this afternoon, and the online canteen deposit option will be available later tonight. Simply log in to your account, add funds, and don’t forget to specify your currency.”

Camp is sparkling clean, with lots of fresh paint and flooring! Staff greeted campers as they ran off their buses excited for another amazing season.
The enthusiasm for sports is evident as small games broke out throughout camp as we waited for the last few buses to arrive.
After meeting the head staff, their counselors and bunk mates, all campers located their luggage, unpacked comfortably in their bunks, and headed to the dining room for a lively, delicious grill cheese lunch, with soup and salad.
Excitement is in the air as both campers and staff are back in the camp spirit. Looking forward to an amazing season IYH.
