Session 7 overnights!
Though there are many perks to living on an island, there's one thing we could do without: Burn Ban. It came late this summer, due to the particularly rainy weather we've had, but nevertheless Burn Ban has arrived. Even though we can no longer start fires at many of the campsites, campers have been making do marvelously. Some cabins cook their meals in main camp before hiking up the hill after dinner to sleep under the stars. Other cabins use propane stoves or have a simple meal like bagels and cream cheese. Still others prefer to go the gourmet way, cooking dishes as complex as lasagna at a fire circle in camp. Above, several Blueberry Hill campers enjoy their delicious meal, cooked by themselves with the help of their counselors, on their overnight campout. Sounds fun to me!

Challenge course and theme meals
Here are a few of this week's campers having a great time on the challenge course. Cabin groups usually have two hours per week to use our low-ropes course for team building activities, facilitated by our dedicated challenge specialists. Working together to overcome obstacles, cabins often become closer and share bonding moments from their challenge course time.
In addition to challenge course, this week campers have had a great variety of things to do, including several theme meals: "Space Vampires," hosted by Nocturnal Camp, and today's "Beach," hosted by Horizon (our high school unit). Campers love getting into the costume closet and dressing up!
