It is now the night before Opening Day and just before I shave off a week’s worth of scruff, I wanted to send out one more pre-summer message. This has been a long two weeks and there are 60 counselors anxiously awaiting the arrival of the campers. This will be my third summer as Director and I can say with absolute certainty that this is the staff that I’ve been working so hard to bring together. They are truly incredible. As I stepped out of my cabin to walk down to the main office I could hear their voices off in the woods, talking about their plans for the first night and ideas for the summer. I listened as two Senior Lodge counselors walked through the dark trails towards the showers, discussing the writing of their cabin agreement once campers arrived. Many other staff were still standing outside of the Lower Lodge talking excitedly about tomorrow. We have worked hard to ready the camp and they have diligently attended multiple trainings and workshops. They are ready and we are now ready for your boys.
I wish those of you setting out tomorrow for the Plymouth Valley safe travels and we will be waiting to greet you at the Trading Post when you arrive.
Let the adventure begin!
