High Meadows Camp

Our first camp session concluded with a day packed with Medieval-themed excitement, endless smiles, and wonderful memories that were not dampened in the slightest by the rain. We wrapped up this inaugural week with a mix of refreshing lake trips, peaceful evenings on the meadow for our older campers, and creative theme days that culminated in our lively Medieval Day festival. We truly enjoyed every activity throughout this session and are eagerly looking forward to the rest of the summer adventures ahead!
