Adventure Week off to a Great Start!
The Center for Environmental Education is alive with activity today as Coastal Camping Adventure, Northwoods Adventure, Saltwater Adventure, and Nature Day Camp campers arrive. The pack shed is piled high with adventurer’s packs, and the sounds of “get to know you” games are echoing through the halls. Gray skies have not put shadows in the eyes of any campers as counselors report in that kids are excited to be here and anxious to make new friends. Thanks to families for patience with our check-in process!
Northwoods Adventurers packed up their van and trailer and hit the road for the Big Eddy Campground right after lunch. Peter and Tom, the group leaders, expect to make it to their campsite around 5:00 this evening.
Coastal Camping Adventurers were off into the woods carrying their packs and wanagans straight after lunch. We should be seeing them in the morning for a report of their first night out.
Today’s theme for Nature Day Camp is “Birds.” This morning they went on a bird walk, and this afternoon they made pinecone bird feeders. Leaders Jane, Chris, Colin and Dom report that the group is high energy and very enthusiastic.
Check in tomorrow for more updates. All is well on Chewonki Neck for tonight.
