Hey, Camp Fans!
We received more than 50 entries for our ‘Share Your Camp Story’ Contest here at Everything Summer Camp and I’ve been happily plugging away at publishing each one of them right here on the Blog to share with all our readers!
Today's camp story submission comes from Hilary S., who wrote in tell us about her daughter, Lys, and her second year away at summer camp—Camp Louise.
“Lys loved her first year so much she could hardly wait to go back to overnight camp again this summer. One of my favorite memories is watching her gaze out the window as we drive the winding road up the mountain to camp. The wind blowing her lovely locks of blonde hair in her face, a smile so big and eyes wide with wonder and excitement for all that is yet to come. Oh, to be ten again and carefree living my best camp life...”
Thanks for submitting your camp story into us, Hilary! It’s great to hear that your daughter’s relationship with summer camp is right where you want it to be—hooked! I’m sure that memory of yours—looking over at the wonder in Lys’ eyes while making your way closer and closer to camp—that’s one that will be with you forever. Unfortunately, we can’t return to those carefree, ten-year-old days but seeing the experience through the fresh eyes of your daughter must be the next-best thing. Wishes for many more fun stays at summer camp for your daughter.
For anyone else interested in attending a summer camp stay at Camp Louise, peruse their website for a closer look to see if it might be the right place for you and your camper. Until next time, thanks for reading. And, as always, Happy Camping!
