Just for fun, Brandon, today took some shots around camp with a 1916 Rainbow Hawkeye box camera. We wanted to share a few. Camp is timeless, but when this camera was new, Point O’Pines Camp was not yet built, and even Brant Lake Camp for Boys had only just been founded that summer. It still works great as you see, and will be fun for our advanced campers to try out at Photography Coaches’ Corner very soon. The film is 120 medium format Tri-X 400 and was processed today here at camp.

Such a great visiting weekend!
We so enjoyed being able to host all of the Moms, Dads, siblings and other family the last two days. Everyone was so fortunate to share two perfect weather days on Brant Lake. We demonstrated new skills, got some of the biggest and best hugs and had a few delicious treats from here and from home. We just enjoyed a superb show from Senior House and are ready for Team Competition tomorrow at Tennis and Team Sports.
Thank you for sharing your weekend with us and bringing up such joy to all the campers!
