So it Begins...THEMES 2015

Want to know something cool about working at camp all year long?

Even in OCTOBER, you get to think about summer camp all day every day.


With all that thinking, we've got some cool stuff planned for 2015. Talking brand-new classes, brand-new activities, and (you guessed it) brand-new themes.

We'll slowly be unveiling all the exciting stuff we've got in store for the 2015 season, and we'll begin this very day by unveiling the themes...slowly.

Stay tuned to this here blog, because we'll be lifting the curtain on the themes two-at-a-time over the next several days, in REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.

(Why reverse chronological order? It's a shout-out to a theme we did not choose, Backwards Week! Why didn't we choose Backwards Week? We couldn't figure out how to manage having the campers picked-up on Monday and dropped of on Saturday is why. Maybe we'll sort that out for the future.)

Drum roll. Please. (Y'know the deal. Starting drumming on your desk or keyboard or phone because if you don't the text below will cease to exist.)

We'll be ending the Summer Season with-

SESSION 6: Camp S’moregasbord

August 10th-15th



That's right, Session Six is...what session six always is! Our traditional end of summer theme sticks with tradition for another year! Camp S'moregasbord is basically just our "Classic Summer Camp" theme. We take bits and pieces of our favorite parts of all the themes all summer long and roll them into one. A lot of our long-time campers love showing up Session 6, to celebrate the end of another season with the staff, and we haul out a bunch of end-of-summer-only activities exclusively for our last session.



AND! We'll be preceding that with (because we're going backward, remember...)

Session 5: SPY WEEK 2015!

August 3rd-8th



Last season's SPY WEEK was one of the most successful new themes we've had in a while, and as soon as Spy Week was underway last summer we knew we'd have to follow it up with another one for the 2015 season. (I mean, c'mon. What happens after any good exciting spy thriller? A sequel is what.) The Dark Agent will once again be trying to seize our beloved Summer Camp, and there will be all new missions to be both foiled and accomplished. Like Spy Week last year, the 1951 Camp Spirit test just might need to be hauled out again to determine who at camp is friend and who is foe. (Disclaimer: we all wind up being friends.)



You may notice that BOTH of these sessions have the same themes as last year. Very perceptive, blog reader! Yes indeed, we loved 'em so much that Session 5 and 6 will be repeating last years themes, but check back here in a day or two for Sessions 3 and 4, which will include a theme we haven't hauled out in a long time, and Sessions 1 and 2, which feature two brand-new-to-camp-never-been-done-before themes.
