Girls Sleepaway Camp in the Adirondack Mountains in Brant Lake, New York
Wow, what a great turnout for reunion, a superb summer video, and time with our friends. Thanks again to the outstanding Peak of 2013 for contributing so much of yourselves to camp. We miss you all already.
Please enjoy the reunion photos posted in the photo albums (look under the 2014 season) when you log in.
Point O’Pines Camp is sponsoring the FARE (“Food Allergy Research & Education”) Walk for Food Allergies on Saturday September 28th in Westchester. Brandon and Caressa will be at the Glen Island Park in New Rochelle, NY in the sponsor tent. We will be showing our support for food allergy awareness – for our family and our campers with food allergies. We’re excited that we will be seeing quite a few of our campers there with their walk teams as well. We will also be able to share the news that camp will be nut free this summer.
We hear that Junior B Kayla and her sister Jordana (a new 2014 Ti camper) will be selling Rainbow Loom bracelets right next to Point O’Pines at the their family’s sponsor table. They have asked their friends to consider making bracelets for them to sell with all the proceeds going to FARE. They write:
“Hi! Me and my sister support FARE (food allergy research and education) and they are having a big walk to raise money so doctors can find a cure for food allergies. My sister and I will be selling rainbow loom bracelets there. If you want to help us raise money for a good cause, you can do so by making rainbow loom single or fishtail bracelets and give them to me or her by September 25th. If you have brothers or sisters, can you please pass this info on to them? Help us say FAREwell to food allergies!”
If you would like to send bracelets you may contact them at farebracelets@gmail.com. Kayla and Jordana’s family’s walk page can be found here.
We are excited to see any of you who will be there, but if you can’t make it please feel free to leave your comments of support here.
This summer’s camp newspaper is ready and is available for parents to download for your daughters on your CampMinder account under “Forms & Documents.”
We miss you girls all already. Such a fantastic time we spent together. You are all a part of such a magical experience, and we especially can not thank our hard working staff enough. We learned, we grew, we enjoyed, and we made friendships. We are so proud of you all.
One of the most difficult parts of today is seeing the great group of Peakers, that is the Peak of 2013 going off on the buses ready to open a new chapter of life. You Peakers made the summer spectacular. We are so excited to see the way you use what you have become. The Point will always be here for you.
We love you Peakers, we love you Camp.
This year’s banquet was a fantastic showing of “A World of Toys.” The Peakers did such a great job. Thank you for making this event so special.
At the end of the evening we recognized a few campers who were truly outstanding in one area of camp or in all of camp. We were so lucky to have so many deserving campers.
