There was no rest today as we blasted out the last day of the session with gusto! What an incredible group of young men. We played hard, we laughed hard, we cried a little, and we even danced a bit. Your son has made new friends and strengthened old relationships. He is more self-reliant. He has even learned a little bit more about himself. I love what High Rocks can do for a young man.
This afternoon we got ourselves packed up and then headed out to the main activity field for our END GAME! The rain added to the epic event that had them all worn out by the end of the event. After shower hour, we had our final banquet, and then it was up to campfire for a final reflection and a story. We even handed out some of our five-year backpacks to four campers this session.
Saturday is going to be a crazy day of emotions and excitement. The boys will be excited to see you but upset to leave. We have added a few notes below to make sure you have a good idea of what is happening. Most importantly, let him show you what camp is to him. He will most probably lead you by the hand and won’t stop talking for hours. Just listen to what camp has done for him. It won’t come out in sentences that spell it out. You’ll have to listen and watch how he speaks and what he talks about. It was definitely time well spent with purpose.

Thank you again for trusting us to mentor your son for these weeks. It is always an adventure and always a privilege. Woody, Zoob, and I will be around if you would like to talk about anything. I look forward to seeing all of you tomorrow. You Rock!
