Summer Roller Coasting 2020

8/4/2020

0 Comments

 
What a ride summer 2020 was! I have lost count of how many times I expressed, “Well, that is not what I expected.” Each time we had a plan in place to put on a bit of summer camp we were thwarted by COVID-19. Clearly, summer camp 2020 was not supposed to happen at least in the way that many folks (especially our campers) would have preferred. We were able to squeeze out one week and camp joy was had by all who attended. That was definitely a bright spot.
 
Truth be told I am not a fan of roller coasters.  Some people just love them, but not me. I am not a fan of the anticipation of the drop or the drop. I feel quite nauseous just thinking about it. I had that feeling often as we moved through the summer. Maybe others did as well. At any rate, I feel fairly confident that no one enjoyed the summer roller coaster ride of 2020.

The saving grace for me was hanging on tight to the highs becuase in spite of the disappointments we had quite a few sweet moments. 
 
Here is a glimpse... 
  • Staff members working hard to get camp ready and gracefully stepping away after camp was canceled.
  • Two months of staying connected posts that would keep you busy for a lot longer.
  • Watching our new grotto take shape. 
  • Two amazing fun-draisers! T-shirts and the Curbside Cook-out!
  • A paint job on the canoe shed and a new dock.
  • Donations, dontations, donations (feeling grateful)!
  • Opening our online camp store (visit at www.campranchoframasa.org). 
  • Volunteers.
  • Sweet messages from our camp community (thanks for cheering us on).
  
This was not the summer any of us planned and at times it felt quite hard but staying open and connected to the good stuff and being hopeful about camp's future keeps us going. 

Currently, we are excited for fall. It is looking brighter! With COVID-19 safe practices in place (including masks, distancing, sanitizing, and daily staff screenings), we feel good about safely hosting people at camp. We are ready to have some fun! Stay tuned to our social media and emails (newsletter coming soon) for ways that you can connect at camp. 

Good stuff is on its way!
