REMINDER
Program and Tiny Tots have started. Please refrain from driving to your cottage unless you have to. If you have to please remember to drive very slowly and watch for kids. They are not always watching for you.

Youth - A big shout out to our staff and campers for powering through a rainy and chilly week #1 of Program. It was nice to see so much activity each day on the Afield and at the pool. We averaged about 30 campers each day! Thank you to Dave Williams, Dave Zweifel and all of the pool volunteers for getting the pool up and running for the season. If you want to see our campers and staff in action, but can’t quite make it to morning gym or afternoon swim lessons, come to the Rath’s next Friday at 7pm and you’ll see them jam out to different styles of music at our annual ITC Rock Concert.  It’s a show you don’t want to miss!

IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION – PEOPLE ARE DRIVING VERY FAST. PLEASE SLOW DOWN! Now that camp is open everyone will need to unload and move your vehicles to the parking lots.  It makes no difference if it is a public road or not it is about the safety of our children, as well as being able to use the road to drive in and out and not having to maneuver around parked cars. Thank you, Art Stevenson
