Junior Camp
Under the Sea Week - Tall Pines Day Camp is truly magical, because a special guest arrived here this week to play with the campers. As part of our Under the Sea theme, Sammy the Seahorse visited under the red pavilion not "under the sea". Campers were able to climb and slide in and out of Sammy even in the rain! As a special added treat all the campers were treated to special "under the sea" glitter tatoos.
Next Week - Go Green Week!!

Middle and Senior Camp
What is one of the most most popular weeks at Tall Pines Day Camp? Gaga Tournament week of course! Bunks have been practicing all summer for this one week. Cheers could be heard all around camp. The spirit was high and the points were close. In the end its not about the medals but what the campers look forward to every year, getting into the Gaga Pit with their friends.
Winners below!

Counselors in Training
This was a double your fun week for the CITs. Two exciting trips. On Monday the entire group packed up and went to Ocean City. They had a wonderful time on the boardwalk and at the beach. Campers got to play games, go on rides and get in a little shopping.
Wednesday was Grandparents Visiting Day and CITs were excellent tour guides assisting our visitors in finding their way around camp. Great job CITs!
On Thursday, the 8th grade campers celebrated their graduating with a trip to Sahara Sam's Indoor Water Park. This was an awesome way to end the season and celebrate with thier friends. Next year they will be working hard as Junior Counselors!

Here's the latest!!!
The winners of this week's Bunk Oscars were 3G, SCG, SCW, & 18B. These bunks were nominated by counselors as having the best sportsmanship and exemplary behavior. Congratulations to the winners!!
Alex's Lemonade Stand - Swim-a-thon
Well the totals are in and Tall Pines families have contributed over $6000 for the Alex's Lemonade Swim-a-thon. We continue to exceed last years' donations and none of this could have happened without your support. This is a tremendous accomplishment considering the state of our economy. This only solidifies the generosity and kindness of our families. Thank you so very much!
Gaga Tournament
What is Tall Pines Day Camp without Gaga. Well, let's hope we never find out, because this is one of the hottest games in camp. Every year parents call and want to know when the Gaga tournament is, so that they can make summer plans around this activity. It's not enough that Gaga is a bunk activity, and a club activity but it MUST also be a tournament.
There were many exciting matches but here are the winners:
13B - Gold 11G - Gold SCG - Gold VC- Gold
15B - Silver 10G - Silver 14G - Silver 17B- Silver
Tall Pines Theatre Presents "The Wiz"
Tall Pines Theatre did it again. A wonderful "broadway" production of the Wiz. The theatre club campers make a hugh sacrifice to be a part of the program and it is evident that it was worth it. This year's show under the direction of Maura Sherlach and Ally Balchiunas was awesome. The campers entertained their parents on Thursday night with a private show and the whole camp on Friday. They danced and sang their way into our hearts. We can't wait to see what the show is for next year!

Color War
Tall Pines Day Camp Color War 2010 broke in the blue skies above
camp as a plane circled with a banner saying "Tall Pines Day Camp Color War 2010". Four riders on horses and four astronauts came out from secret places and announced the start of a wonderful week ahead. Campers screamed for joy as teams were called out. This years' theme will follow Woody/Cowboys (White Team) and Buzz/Astronauts (Green Team) throughout the week for challenges, spirit and points. See a separate email for team assignments and the week's activities. On Monday, wear your team color! |
