Let the fun begin!

Our 89^th consecutive summer begins NOW and it’s going to be the best one ever.  Leave your worries at home. When you step off of that bus or out of your car, you’re going to be stepping into a summer of Pine Forest fun, “Up where the sky begins.”

It doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from or how you get here. It doesn’t matter what happened all school year long.  If your destination is Pine Forest Camp in Greeley, Pennsylvania today, you are in for the summer of your life.

As we sing every year on opening day, “We welcome you to Pine Forest, we’re mighty glad you’re here!”

And we are. Mighty glad.

It doesn’t get much better than this for lower camp! Our older campers are officially all away on their trips. Juniors and Intermediates have the run of camp. It’s a lower camp takeover! The highlight of the day was the COLOR DAYS THROWBACK THROWDOWN.  The girls and boys recreated Color Days themes from previous years and competed against each other in decorating the bunk, making a corresponding skit, and CLEAN-UP!

It’s SENIOR TRIPS time! Our 9-11^th graders look forward to this day every summer and it’s finally here! Our 9^th graders are on their way to New England and our 10^th graders are headed to Montreal.  Curious as to what they’ll be up to? We thought so! Below are some highlights.
