The Sub News

August 5th, 2011

The Subs have had a very busy week. We spent two amazing days in Lake Placid where the girls enjoyed a gondola ride to the top of Whiteface Mountain, followed by a boat tour around Lake Placid. After settling in the hotel, we went for pizza and a movie. On the second day, we visited the Olympic Ski Complex where they took chair lifts up to the top of the 120 meter high ski jump! From the top, the girls could see many of the Adirondacks’ most famous High Peaks including Whiteface and Mount Marcy. After taking tons of photos we went back down to watch some of the locals practicing their jumps into a swimming pool. Next was on of the girls’ favorite parts, shopping in Lake Placid Village!

We returned to camp in time for their first Team Sing practice and their last social with the Brant Lake Camp boys. The last few days have been full of Team Sing songs and excitement for some of the girls’ favorite evening activities including Ice Cream Dream, Dance Show, Senior Night and, of course, DJ Jeff!

Welcome Home

August 4th, 2011

Some of our recent alumnae visited us yesterday for a special day including the Schultzes’ Island swim, dinner on the beach and an evening activity called “Alumnae Mash-Up.” At Alumnae Mash-Up the alumnae bested the campers at the very last moment in a competition which included word scrambles, “Minute to Win It“-style challenges and name that Team Sing song. Thanks to everyone who came to visit. We enjoyed seeing you so much!

The Tennis News

August 4th, 2011

This has been an amazing summer. We have had a total of nine tournaments, competing against other camps, and Point O’Pines won the most medals in every single event. This summer we adopted the USTA “Quick Start” tennis program which allows us to work effectively with the 10 year old and under groups in a whole new way.
