Camp is simply too quiet this morning. Another amazing summer is in the books but all we can think about this morning is how much we are missing our third session campers!

Yesterday was incredibly special as we got the chance to celebrate a great session with our closing ceremony. After our boys enjoyed one last Tuck meal for breakfast, the gates opened up and families came rolling into property. Our campers marched in singing all together and we got the chance to share some highlights of the session with our families. From daily activities, to cabin life, to tribal games to Little Chief, it was a fantastic session and so much fun to give our families a glimpse behind the curtain at the ceremony. The big reveal came at the end, however, when the sultan of fun himself announced the winner of the Third Session banner….The GOLDEN EAGLES!

Congrats to the Golden Eagles and fear not, Black Bears, for redemption is just a few months away. Be sure to check out all the highlight from our ceremony below. We wish you all a safe, happy and healthy school year, and we can’t wait to see everybody back at Timberlake next summer!
