When you think about camp, this is the week that comes to mind: the perfect first week of camp for any young chlld. There is swimming and canoeing and arts & crafts. There are smores around a campfire, lots of singing, and counselors to help you remember where you put your beach towel. This is the week off of which all our other camp weeks is based.
