Hey, we thought we'd take a moment to share what else happens at camp this time of year!

Hope College May Term: For 20 years Fowler has partnered with Hope College to host and "Ecological Theology Course" which includes 8 days in the backcountry canoeing and backpacking. They arrive in early May and many staff such as Aunt Jenna, Aunt Lindsay, Aunt Samantha, Uncle Matt, and Aunt Hannah, have found out about Fowler through this course.

WORK WEEKEND sponsored by the Camp Fowler Boosters: This is our longest running event. Since 1956, volunteers have worked over Memorial Day Weekend to prepare the grounds and buildings for another summer. Come join us this year as we add an Open House on Saturday, May 25. Come to work or just walk around and see what YOUR CAMP is up.

Continued progress: is being made on our Capital Projects. This summer we will be in our new Health Center and we will dedicate a finished LEET NATURE CENTER. We also are having a second 15 kwh solar array installed with the goal of producing 50% of our electrical needs on site!

On top of all of this we are having our best summer camp enrollment in years. There is still room in many of our weeks, but don't wait to long. You don't want to miss your summer at Camp Fowler! 

Where Will Your Adventures Take

YOU

This Summer?

I just returned from a day of backcountry skiing in the Siamese Ponds Wilderness Area. This is where many of you have gone for a Fowler Backpacking or Paths and Paddles trip. It was beautiful in the woods, surrounded by the silence of late winter, broken only by the sound of skis on snow. We skied through an area that would normally take us a day or two to hike with a group and I remembered how important these woods really are.

For some of our campers, their "time" at Camp Fowler will be spent hiking through the High Peaks or West Canada Wilderness. Some will paddle canoes or kayaks through some of the wildest areas in the Northeast. Some will, for the first time pitch a tent, cook over a camp stove, and fall asleep with only the moon for a night light. 

These are some of the things that shape the lives of our children. 

Fowler offers many opportunities to be in the Adirondack backcountry where  your child will grow in strength, confidence, joy, and wonder.

Alright, we're all back at it, with February quickly moving into March. Summer camp registrations are continuing to pour in. Here's where we currently are as of Monday, February 25:

We've got openings in most of our weeks, but we typically get 5-10 registrations a day this time of year. How about completing your registration today to ensure your first choice for the best week of your summer!
