Good Morning High Rocks I was super excited to get up to the dining hall this morning. While I typically make it up there fairly early for our daily meeting, I wanted to be sure I caught some of the mini guys coming in from their cabin overnights. As luck would have it, I was… Continue reading Good Morning High Rocks

Waikiki Wednesday Again! It was another great day on the mountain. I enjoyed seeing these new mini-men begin to figure out a few skills and other items in their activities. Most of them jumped on the Waikiki Wednesday theme day. You will see a number of Hawaiian-themed shirts in the images today. I work hard… Continue reading Another Waikiki Wednesday

Heading After a festive Sunday the crowds appeared a little winded this morning.  There was not the typical stampede at the door as the boys wer just sauntering up after the bell rang for brekafast.  There was still plenty going on including many trips out today and several Camper-Counselor matches that had to be wrpped… Continue reading Welcome Mini II Campers

Reflection and Ilahee Field Day It sure was a delightful day.  Our morning was super chill.  The laundry system was well oiled just before breakfast.  As the boys entered to eat, the smell of house made doughnuts fill the air. It sure was a pleasant event.  From there we had a few health checks and… Continue reading Reflection and Illahee Field Day

Big Saturday Adventures I had to post this picture! It was priceless and just captured the fun out there today! We had a great day visiting with the Mini I parents and wish well to all those boys heading home today.   This group of “minis” was more than half first-time campers. It was a big… Continue reading Mini I Close

Fridays at Camp It seemed like the end of the second week came fast. All of a sudden the week was closing out with a beautiful morning, bits of fog rolling across the lake. Sunny skies were already awakening camp by the time the morning bell rang out. There were several people helping with the… Continue reading Fridays at Camp

Another Jersday Thursday It sure was fun to see all of the jerseys coem out again today.  It always brings out a little smack talk about teams and who we like. I like this tough one above. They tried to look tough :).   The high pressure continued today with fantastic weather.  The salers enjoyed another… Continue reading Another Jersday Thursday

What a Wednesday Should Be What a beautiful day!  The outside breeze began blowing in the later morning and the air dried out a bit. The high hit about 82, but the breeze made it feel amazing. The sailors had a blast this afternoon.  It was an amazing day in the mountains. I had a… Continue reading What Wednesday Should Be

Tuesdays are Tuff Today was a warm start to the day. Sun shining brightly and just a light breeze to move the few clouds overhead. Like clockwork, the bell tolled out at 7:45 to announce the official start to the day. With this second week cranking though, plenty of folks were already on the move… Continue reading Tuesdays are Tuff

The Challenge is the Fun! Our paddling program always starts out in canoes and is always on flat water in the beginning. The canoe gives the boys a good vantage point for when they first hit the river and it gives them a bigger craft that is not as edgy as a solo canoe or… Continue reading The Challenge is the Fun

Sundays are for Rest We love Sundays at High Rocks! They are typically a little more chill than the rest of the week.  We wake up a little later, and the morning is at a much slower pace. However, that slower pace does include getting our laundry up to breakfast in the morning.  It doesn’t… Continue reading Sundays are for Rest
