We're getting closer and closer! It's 3 weeks and counting and the waiting is the hardest part! That's according to a recent Open House visitor who said- "I want camp to start now!" So yes, kids are excited for the the summer at Segowea to begin. And it's not to late to register for camp! Please go to the Camp website and register online- www.segowea.org. It's very easy! You can always contact Camp Director Kat Fitzpatrick at kfitzpatrick@cdymca.org.

And that's a full day! For a lot more information, there's the Parent Handbook online on the Camp website- http://www.cdymca.org/locations/CampWaWaSegowea/Download.aspx. There you'll find what your child should and should not bring to camp as well as all the camp policies and guidelines.
There's still time to see the camp before summer begins as the remaining Camp Open Houses will be held on June 5th and June 19th. There's also one remaining Work Weekend scheduled for the 18th & 19th of June and rumor has it, a lot of people will be attending! (Which is good as there's a lot of work to do before kids get there the following week!) Hope to see you there!
Here's a few pictures from the springtime happenings at camp.
On a recent work weekend, The Screen Assembly begins. (Screens in the dining hall)
The docks are in the water. They just have to be put together!
Ike and his never ending search for old/loose nails.

And this is where they'll go!
