Hello Brewster Day Camp! 

What a wonderful first week at BDC! We had a fantastic Week #1 here at camp, full of sunshine and beginning-of-summer excitement. As I walk around camp, I see smiling faces in each program! We all played to our fullest throughout the entire week, even through some wet weather. 

Standing on the Welcome Walk each morning, I am GRATEFUL to receive hugs, handshakes, and high-fives from campers, parents, family, and alumni. This energy and good spirit that radiates into camp each morning helps to create the magic that brings us back here - year after year. 

As we move into our second week of camp, I am taking a moment to reflect on all of the joy that I see around 3570 Main Street. This coming week, we will focus on everything that we are GRATEFUL for. Whether you are GRATEFUL to experience BDC for the first time, return to camp for another amazing summer, or for having the opportunity to enjoy the gorgeous summer weather, you can share your GRADITUDE with the rest of the camp family. Please join us as we celebrate one of our favorite weeks at camp, and honor the BDC tradition that is GRADITUDE. 

CHGsP!
