As we come up on the final week of our Second Session on Crescent Lake, it’s hard to believe how quickly the days have flown by. It feels like just yesterday we were hopping off the bus with excitement and anticipation for all the adventures ahead. Each day here has been filled with fun, friendship, and growth. It’s amazing to see how much we’ve all experienced in such a short time. Our most recent S-Day was filled with fun, bumper tubing, and ice cream sundaes. We capped it off with an evening at Funtown-Splashtown USA in nearby Saco, Maine. It was a night of thrilling rides, refreshing water slides and endless fun under the summer sun. Whether we were screaming on Dragon’s Descent or splashing in the water park, the trip was a perfect blend of excitement and relaxation, full of memories for all.

Tonight, all eyes are on Moosebowl, our legendary flag football game that unites the entire camp. It’s not just a game between the Black Bears and the Rattlesnakes; it’s a tradition unlike any other, filled with spirit, sportsmanship, and competition. As we cheer on our oldest Bago campers under the lights, it’s hard not to notice our younger boys anticipating their turn to play. No matter the outcome, we can’t wait to celebrate the camaraderie and enjoy the amazing halftime dance show.

We have a packed final week ahead of us. We’re eagerly anticipating our two upcoming theatre shows, our final S day, Katahdin Cup and Moose Stock. We look forward to squeezing out every ounce of enjoyment out of our final days of programming before packing our camp bags. As we reflect on all we’ve experienced and accomplished so far, we’re excited to make the most of every moment, cherishing the time we have left at Laurel South this summer.
