News from Camp Highlander

Well the new elements to our challenge course are in and they look awesome.  The picture to the left is of the Vertical Play Pen.  We still need to install the cargo net and ropes, but as you can see it goes pretty high up (that’s a ten foot ladder resting next to it…the element goes over 30 feet high)!  For those of you who want to stay closer to the ground we have a new Spider Web, Wild Woozy and Pole Tire team elements that are sure to cause some excitement and new camp records.

We are sure you have all been watching on the news about the blizzard weather in our area.  We’ve been lucky that most of the storms have gone just north of us, but we’ve still had a consistent few inches of snow on the ground for the past few weeks.  Makes for some fun sledding and snowman building when we’re brave enough to go outside in the 10 degree or colder weather.  So we stay inside most days working, sipping hot chocolate and thinking of all of you and the summer.

Just as the last of the snow was melting from the previous storm, we had another foot of snow fall last weekend.  This has been the most snow Camp Highlander has seen in years, and we are enjoying the beautiful snow covered mountain. It took some convincing, but I got Gaynell to pose in the snow.  He was up for meetings and definitely was wishing he was back in sunny Florida.
