News From The Point

This year’s Banquet was themed, planned and put on by the amazing Peak of 2012.  Thank you to this wonderful group of young women.  This year’s theme was “Be Who You Wanna Be!,” and featured every little girl’s old favorite toy in her many possibilities in life.  

This year we recognized the accomplishments of some particularly outstanding campers both this year and over their history at Point O’Pines.  We want to share our pride in their accomplishment with you.

What a show! Last night the Seniors entertained us at Senior Night. Thanks for a great evening!

Senior Night is an evening that combines wonderful entertainment with organization and preparation of leadership skills for Peak year.  The Seniors must decide upon a show to perform as theater in the round.  The performance takes place in the Rec Hall.  A script for the evening is prepared and campers begin work on the play and the scenery.  The scenery is elaborate and challenging and tests the teamwork and time management of the seniors.  On the evening of the show, the camp enters through a grand entrance and is seated on blankets in the center of the Rec Hall. When it begins, the show unfolds all around the audience of campers staff.  At intermission refreshments are served to the campers and the show re-commences.  At the grand conclusion the campers depart and are each is presented with a memento of the evening.
