Day 1: A Campfire Tradition
“The campfires are always a fun part of camp!”
- Luciana
On the first night of camp, everyone gathers for Opening Campfire. The flames glow, counselors act out silly skits, and campers learn the songs they’ll be singing all week long. It’s the moment when nerves fade and camp starts to feel like home.
By Thursday night, the Closing Campfire brings the week full circle. Each cabin steps up to perform a skit they’ve practiced together, proudly showing off inside jokes and teamwork built over the past few days. We sing our favorite camp songs and end with the song “Make New Friends.” Afterward, buddy cabins pair up to roast s’mores and enjoy one last cozy night around the fire.
