Happy summer! We hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July. We've been very busy this week with the opening of summer camp sessions at Rock Hill Camp and Camp Addisone Boyce. We are so happy to welcome campers back and so far it's going great. We are especially happy that the waterfront at Rock Hill Camp is fully open and campers have been enjoying boating and swimming! Photos will be posted periodically on the Rock Hill and CAB Facebook pages for you all to see what campers are getting up to.

Your Efforts at Work - Archery Equipment at Rock Hill Camp
|
|
We are continuing to highlight the great work of our members and donors who contributed to the Girl Scouts Love CAMPaign.
This week, campers at Rock Hill Camp got to use the new archery equipment that was purchased with the funds raised through the Girl Scouts Love CAMPaign.
Archery is a camper and staff favorite each year at camp and we are so grateful to continue having the proper materials to teach campers how to shoot arrows safely and strengthen their skills.
Thank you again for the hard work and generosity of everyone who worked on and contributed to the Girl Scouts Love CAMPaign!
Stay tuned for more updates throughout the summer!
