 Summer Camp closed on Friday, July
29, and it was an
enormous success. Financially, this year was even more
challenging that last, and yet we had 110 campers over two
weeks, participating in 35 weeklong activities and trips.
When the counselors, counselors-in-training and
grasshoppers (children of activity leaders who are too
young for camp) are added in, over 150 local young people
enjoyed the benefits of camp this summer.
For a "camper's eye"
view of the 2011 camp, see the
online Camp Chronicle. The only way this camp can work is with the support of
hundreds of people. Thank you so much for your
contributions to and support of the 2011 VerShare Community
Camp! Such a huge endeavor is
successful only because we have so much support from so many
people. We thank you all!!! Take a look at all
the people who helped out. It's astounding!
