Camp countdown..299 days until 2017!!

It seems like just yesterday we arrived at Agawak, went through pre-camp and waited patiently for our campers to arrive for the summer.  How quickly the summer went. Now we have said our goodbyes to the greatest campers and finest staff anywhere. We had such an amazing summer!  Thank you for allowing us to spend time with your wonderful children. Please know that we recognize the tremendous leap of faith on your part and strive every day to earn your trust. Campers you are the reason we do what we do. Seeing your smiling faces and listening to your laughter all summer fills our hearts with joy which we can’t sufficiently describe. To our amazing CIT’s: Watching you grow over the years has been a gift. Thank you for your leadership and dedication to camp and especially with Blue and White this summer. Our staff dedicated their entire summer to helping our campers overcome fears and challenge themselves in countless ways. I’m so proud of their efforts.

On September 1, we will open up our registration for the summer of 2017. Due to our high return rate of campers and new families that toured or inquired this summer, we are expecting a “full house”. We will accept registrations in the date order in which they were received through CampMinder. It saddens me that we will not be able to accommodate all out CITS next summer therefore, applying early is crucial. In order, to receive any early bird discounts you MUST register your camper and pay your deposit on or before October 1st.  Unfortunately, I won’t be to extend this date as it is not fair to other families that make the deadline. Please understand if you do not put down a deposit your camper won’t be officially registered and a spot will not be held. After October 1st we will be accepting and registering new campers.

While I’m sad the summer of 2016 has come to an end, the memories we made will forever be a part of who we are.  I’m pumped the countdown to summer 2017 is now underway. Only 299 days until we’re back “home with our family”. I wish all of you a happy and healthy “off-season”.

 

Kind regards,

Mary :))
