Session 2, 2017: Part One

One-week sessions at Wildwood are for many, a great way to experience overnight camp for the first time. The only trouble is, they go by too quickly! It’s hard to believe that we are already just about halfway through the session and it feels like the campers just arrived. We have to remember to slow down and enjoy each moment at camp before they are all gone for the week.

We have consistently had a great start to each session this summer and Session 2 has proved to be no different. On our first full day of activities on Tuesday, we enjoyed Wildwood camp classics like the Burma Bridge at the high-ropes challenge course, Life of a Dragonfly, and a hands-on gardening program. We capped off our evening with Unit Night which featured activities planned and facilitated by the unit staff, along with support from our Leaders-In-Training and Junior Counselors.

In trek news, the Long Trail Hiking 2-week trek departed Wildwood on Monday morning and made their way to their drop off point near Bromley Mountain in Vermont. Also included is the trip’s first remote check-in from between Bromley Mountain and Stratton Mountain. Right on schedule!

I hope everyone at home is having a great week also. Stay tuned here for more updates later this week!
