This past Sunday, was Camp Whitman's opening day of the regular camping season for graded campers as well as our program for people with developmental disabilities. It was awesome to see so many new and familiar faces this year in the registration line!

We were able to welcome campers from 6 different camps this week. In graded camp we had, Adventures (3rd-5th grade), Sailing (6th-8th), and our Counselor-in-Training (CITs) camp, while our campers with disabilities came for Sports and Games Camp as well as Explorations Camp.

Our staff was very excited to finally meet campers after our week and a half of training, and jumped right into singing songs and getting to know everyone. After meeting such great campers on our very first Sunday, we are very excited about what the rest of the summer will bring.

Our CIT Campers ended their evening with some Teambuilding
and trying to untangle a Human Knot. |
We want to extend a huge thank you to our volunteer Chaplain this week, Colin Pritchard from Victor, NY. Campers are very excited for the energy and enthusiasm he will bring to all of our family groups.
