Wednesday Morning Reflection: The Quiet Space in Between

Dear Campers, Families and Friends, While the days at camp are packed full of a flurry of activities, laughter, singing and fun, some of the most treasured aspects of camp come from the quiet space in between. From the leisurely walks with a new friend across camp to an activity, to the moments of free time where one can find either solitude and space for reflection or quiet moments to catch up, engage with,and share with friends. Camp is a really a unique natural environment  to both participate in and experience a range of activities, but at camp we encourage moments of shared and personal reflection. Each night the campers as a group share their favorite part and part they liked the least of the day (the rose and thorn). Some campers are  more willing to share, others more quiet and observant, but in the end this space allows us all to come together in an honest and thoughtful way to learn and grow from one another and share the magic of camp as a group. So while today will bring another incredible and busy day of land sports, swimming and water sports, singing along with lunch, tennis, tie dying and arts and crafts, it will also be another special day where our campers can find time to enjoy the quiet moments in between.   Its going to be a wonderful day! Yours in camping, Stacey
