As summer 2024 draws to a close, we reflect on what an extraordinary season it has been for our 120th Reunion Year. We hope that every camper and staff member enjoyed an unforgettable summer with us on the peninsula—it truly has been a blast! From the excitement of Awiskinis and spirited Blue/White competitions to the reflective Gatherings and inventive Line Nights, every activity across the board from Archery to Sign Point has been a highlight. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this summer exceptional. There truly is no place like home. Keep scrolling to see our big award winners from our final night at camp.

Day is done. Gone the sun. From the lakes, from the hills, from the skies. All is well, safely rest. God is nigh.
