Caribou Post Camp 2013


Hey guys, we hope you're enjoying the end of the summer season!  Things have been rockin' up here at the 'Bou!  We just came off a week long pre-season football camp with Wayland High School, Wellesley High School, and Tyngsboro High School. It was back to the grid iron for all three teams.  The week included loads of practices, the Caribou ropes course, the aquazip, chilling on our new waterfront trampolines, a campfire, tremendous meals, and a scrimmage at the end.  We had a great week with them and we wish them all the best this upcoming season.


The post camp staff (Southall, our Waterski Director Ryan Scott, Oli, Willcox, Alastair Harding, Damien, Kuba, Raffa, Bobby, Rotman, Lori, Bill, and Martha) all have been working hard on cleaning up camp and getting things looking even better for next summer.  One of our projects is revamping bunk 10, as seen in the first photo!

With everything going on at camp, things are definitely not same without all our campers and staff.  We miss everybody and hope that everyone has a great start to the school year.  Keep in touch and we'll see you guys at the fall reunions.  BOU YAH
