BREWSTER DAY CAMP Newsletter June 23, 2019
Vol. 38 Issue 10

Hello Brewster Day Camp,
Over the last two weeks, our well-trained staff officially began their summer by reuniting and preparing for the 8 weeks of pure excitement and adventure ahead!
Our staff members took special note of the incredible transformations that take place on campus. We were amazed at how efficiently we retired Fall, Winter, and Spring at 3570 Main St in order to unpack Summer! In just four days at the beginning of June, thanks to our Pre-Camp Setup Team, tents went up, boats were launched, and our campus came to life!
Our entire staff spent the last week learning the ins and outs of what it means to be a counselor at Brewster Day Camp. Our wonderful staff persevered through rain and some sunshine with big smiles on their faces to prepare for your families this summer. This past week of intense training is one of the most important ingredients in our special sauce. Our staff was thrilled to transform themselves and their peers from excited college-age individuals into one caring, energetic and cohesive BDC staff. This preparation makes all of Brewster Day Camp come to life!
We are so excited for you to join us during our 38th Summer at 3570 Main St.
BDC 2019 is ready to LIFT-OFF with plenty of...
Courage, Hope, Good Spirit & Peace!
