*Dear Summer Camp Families, It is hard to believe that we have reached the end of our summer camp. Seems like we just started camp not that long ago. We thank you for entrusting your children to us over the past 8 weeks. This summer, we welcomed the most campers we have had in years. We had exciting adventures, and formed new friendships. We look forward to seeing you back here for summer camp 2025! Information for summer camp 2025 should be available sometime in January. Have a great rest of the summer! Mr. Stevens You can catch more of our week together on our Facebook page.
