Sub Seniors Week 7

Sub Seniors Week 7

W​hat a summer it has been​!​ I​t’s hard to ​put it into words. The Subs have been the best division I could ask for​. ​We’ve been on a roller-coaster and enjoyed every minute of it. They have really been full of energy and enthusiasm at every turn​-​even up to the end of summer. ​They worked together, they laughed their way through, they matured, they relished their time here together. On Sunday we finally had our ​special event! The Subs put on the penultimate even​t​ of the summer​,​ Subsway​. ​ ​W​hat a phenomenal day at waterfront with sandwiches and drinks all prepared by the campers themselves​. ​ ​T​hey really know their way around a kitchen! ​ Our theme was a Hawaiian Luau-they made everything themselves and proudly presented their plaque and their event to the whole camp after a summer of teamwork to build it all together. ​We also had lots of games and fun inflatables to keep the camp occupied for the whole day. You should be very proud of your wonderful children because I sure am.

​In these past few days we enjoyed Annie- Secret show, Hannah Montana- Counselor Show, and Fairy Tales-Banquet.​ Each event told a great story about Romaca and all of the wonderful girls who call it home. Our hearts are heavy missing all of the girls right now-we know all too well why Romaca is such a special part of their lives because it is just as special to all of us.

They have truly made this summer ​awesome for me and for all the campers, ​and I hope that each and everyone of them has the best winter and comes back to their summer home​-​ as i​ ​will be waiting for them. What more can I say​?…​ such a great summer, such a wonderful bunch of kids,​ I am a lucky Group Head.​ I am very glad to ​have ​spent this summer with them and ​can’t wait til summer 2017.​ Until next time​.​
