Beautiful morning with lots of going on – this is the start of excursions for us!

After a breakfast in the dining hall of pancakes and bacon – fruit bar and cereal line both hot and cold, the following groups loaded into vans and took off for parts of New Hampshire and Maine.

Friars and Bards out for four days coming back Thursday night – headed to Western Mass and the Basketball Hall of Fame. Then the bards took off on their own to Hampton Beach (along New Hampshire’s sea coast). Both groups will be camping out tonight and cooking dinner.

The Arrows and Lancers were next to leave with the girls heading to Canobie Amusement and Water Park. The boys were off to an afternoon of paintball!! Both groups are camping and cooking out but in separate camp grounds, both three day excursions.

The Saxons and Scribes took off for Rock Harbor Beach on the Cape for an afternoon of sun and surf. They will be spending three days on the Cape and staying in separate hotels, not camping out. They will also be eating out at local restaurants on the Cape.

Now back in camp for those of us left, with only half the camp, have had lots of activities to choose from. It was a hot day and water front activities were in popular demand by all, from water ski area to canoe and kayak – sailing areas and swimming in between. Top side A&C, woodshop, tennis, riflery and archery led the choices.

These were all divided up between Archers, Bows, Squires, Jesters, Tumblers, TPJs, Foresters, Shires, Yeomen and Quills. These excursions leave later in the week. Some going out Thursday and some Friday.

The Foresters and some Lancers had an afternoon soccer game with Camp Toko and some groups watched the game and cheered them on.

All meals today we ate and drank lots of water!!!

We’ll keep you up to date on excursions and what is going on at camp!
