Photos from the play...

Well, everyone is safe at home now. At least we hope they are. It was an incredible summer and thanks to all the families individuals and assorted critters who made it happen. We'll post some more soon but wanted to touch base since the blog took little break while campgot cleaned up and such. Here's some photo's from the play. It was a lot of fun. We might take it to broadway, or turn it into a summer blockbuster movie, something like that. Thanks Rick, for the music and the words and the direction. See you all next year!

THE PLAY!!!

THE PLAY IS TONITE AND TOMORROW (MON&TUES)! PLEASE COME TO THE CAMP ON GREENWOOD AVE IN VINYARDHAVEN FOR A 7:30 PM SHOW THAT WE HOPE WILL KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF! ICE CREAM AND COOKIES AFTERWARDS...

Scorchin' Sunday...


Well it was a real scorcher here on the island today. We were sweating just standing still! This morning Faith, Beth and Manny took a trip into Vinyardhaven to be interviewed for Plum TV. We were in a hurry and Beth was having trouble keeping up the fast pace walking down there so she hitched a ride on Faith's wheelchair. While on TV they talked about the upcoming play. IT'S TOMORROW, MONDAY THE 17TH AT 7:30PM! COME TO THE CAMP AND SEE IT!

Here's they are on the set of the TV show...


This afternoon we all went over to the Boch's big house in Edgartown for a cookout picnic lunch. Thank you Barbara Boch!
It was a blast, as always. And this time no one peed in the hot tub.








Hellcat and Patricia O'Neal. Two amazing women, side by side. "She may have won an Oscar," said Hellcat, "but I could still take her in a wrestling match."

Bonfire at the beach...


This morning we worked on play rehersal and then after lunch we rehersed some more. We just can't get enough! Come check out the play here at the camp on Mon, July17 and Tues July 18, at 8pm. Admission is free! We guarentee everyone will be satisfied! Unless you don't like music, or need for it to be sung in tune. Here's some shots of the whole camp recording a song for the slideshow soundtrack at the end. It sounded pretty good, if we do say so ourselves.



Faith's T-shirt says it all:


By the time we'd finished the afternoon rehersal we were all so sick of the play we were about ready to pee in our own pants. In fact, some of us did just that. But that was okay since we managed to make it out to the beach for a great cookout.







We hauled some wood down to the beach for a marshmellow roasting fire:



Even Hellcat came down to survey the scene...

...and she and Beth recited the Jabberwocky poem for us...


...and we were treated to a most excellent sunset...





...and then darkness descended upon us all...


Fantastic Friday


It was another action packed day here at Jabberwocky central. We were glad to see sunny skies return and everyone is getting excited about the upcoming play (Monday and Tues, July 17th and 18th, 8pm here at the camp - please come!). Here's some shots of our action packed rehearsal this morning:



And here's some shots of the final horseback riding class of the session. Ride 'em cowboy!






After lunch we all hit the beach. No one stayed behind. It was simply too nice a day for anything else:


Supercounselor Kim Ho is back for a visit with old friends. Here she's telling Jonah that's he's been growing like a weed, or something like that:

Grace and Faith used grace and faith to complete a difficult crossword puzzle:

Chricke decided to abandon ship after Manny's toes did a little too much wiggling, if you know what we mean...

John C. shows us why they call him Casanova:

Sharon laughs at Kelsey's lifeguard credentials:


And here we are loading up to leave. Back on the first day of camp it took us a whole hour to load the bus. Now we can do it in under fifteen minutes. That's efficiency! And we usually don't forget anyone either:




The boys in the back of the bus!


After dinner we loaded up the bus once again and drove to Edgartown for a Movie. We ate dinner a little slower this time so nobody barfed on the way over. We saw "Me, You, and Dupree". It was pretty good. The best part was at the end when Matt laughed so loud at the sappy conclusion that the whole theater started cracking up.
