Two Summers have come to an end. Chop Point Camp has wrapped up and is officially starting school this week and our un-official summer at Campo Alegria has come to an end as well.
We had a blast this summer and it has been a whirl-wind time since June when everything kicked off.
We have posted a few snippets of things that happened this summer along with some more photos posted at our Picasa web gallery at http://campoalegria.com/MediaDownloads/Photos/.
However there is so much more to tell and I hope to get some more photos and blogs up soon from some of our volunteers to help paint a better picture of what this summer was really like.
I wanted to give a special thanks to our volunteers this summer who selflessly raised their own support, came down not knowing what they were getting into and made the last three months possible. We had a grueling schedule of children's camps, and when we weren't working with children we were busy getting our hands dirty with maintenance and much needed cleaning and organization of Camp. Some volunteers were here for just a few weeks and some were here for three months, all were just as important to this summers success.
A special thanks to Jonathan Levis and Daniel Whitney who committed everything to Camp this summer from day one, we couldn't have done it without them and I am extremely proud of the job they did and there willingness to serve in many difficult circumstances. I wish they could have stayed forever and I wil continue to plot and scheme ways to lure them back again next year.
