Pine Tree Camp Update (2) - Luke Sanford

Hello from Pine Tree Camp!

Just wanted to share some of the highlights of Luke's time at camp so far. We've been keeping him very busy!

Luke has participated in a number of activities including Arts-n-Crafts where he painted a birdhouse and a small wooden car. He and Stuart also went fishing on the pontoon boats! Only one fish was caught that morning by a fellow camper. Maybe the next fishing trip will be more successful! Luke has also gone to Outdoor Games and played a game of soccer and basketball with his cabin mates. He and Stuart have gone swimming a couple of times in the lake :)  This morning Luke went to the Nature program in the tree house! Pine Tree Camp is proud to have the only fully accessible tree house in the state of Maine! The activity was a lesson on animal tracks and scats. Then they used plaster of paris to make molds of the different animals' tracks and scats. Luke made a mold of a porcupine track!

This week the cabins are participating in a Colour War! Luke's cabin, Cabin 5, is green. Campers and counselors participate in a bunch of different challenges throughout the week to earn points for their team. One of the counselor challenges was an onion eating contest. Ew! Cabin 5 stayed strong through all of the tears and came in 3rd place! Nice work boys! Another way for the teams to earn points is to decorate the cabin. Boy did Cabin 5 go all out! They searched all over camp for anything and everything they could find that was green including a small christmas tree for the front room!


Right now Luke is out sailing on the lake with Stuart and a camp volunteer named Bruce. It's a beautiful day for sailing! We hope you've enjoyed this little update and the photos. 

Thanks for reading!
