Jay's Camp

Tweens Camp Newsletter

Dear Parents and Children,

I can’t believe this is the eighth week and the summer is over. Each and every year I reflect on summers past. Each year I look back on the experiences of every camper and staff member and each summer I experience sadness because I have to say goodbye to another year at Jay’s Camp. This is the twenty-sixth year of Jay’s Camp and after each year I can’t wait until the next summer of fun, friendship, and good times. This year is no exception. I am committed to making next summer the best summer your children will ever experience. Each and every year I add a new and exciting piece of equipment to my camp. This year we added a state of the art miniature golf course, expanded our outdoor stadium, and upgraded our climbing tower and obstacle course. Next year we will have more special programs and activities to my camp.

Early Enrollment for 2011: On or about Sept. 15^th, each Jay’s camper family will receive registration and information forms for next summer. The early discounts in October will be substantial; making Jay’s the most competitively priced camp on the North Shore. This year, the size of your deposit will reflect on your final balance which will no doubt be extremely attractive to you. Also, keep in mind that if you refer a new camper to Jay’s Camp, you will receive financial consideration. These discounts will save you a lot of money and I hope you take advantage of it. The biggest and more creative discounts will be the “October Early Discount”.

E-Mail: Please check your e-mail for special information during the year.

I wish all of my campers and their family a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2011 and I look forward to seeing all of my Jay’s Campers smiling faces next summer. Thank you for the loan of your child and for your confidence in my program. Until next year, I leave you with these thoughts:

Oh where or where has the Summer gone

I can’t believe that this week is the last.

Sports, Swimming, Drama, Dance, Special Programs and more

The Carnival was really a blast!

Day Camp, Sports Camp, Sac, Tweens and CIT’s

Are the units of this special place.

And everything we do has just one goal

To put a smile on your camper’s little face.

For four or eight weeks we bonded together

With fun and the happiest of days.

And boys and girls, know they are so special

At this amazing place called Jay’s.

With a lump in my throat

I’ll say good bye

As I wipe away my tears.

It’s only 10 months; I just can’t wait

To see you at Jay’s next year.

Fondly,

Jay

TWEENS NEWSLETTER - WEEK 8

This week was one of the hottest weeks of camp. On Monday, the Tweens went to Gameworks. Austin and Paul showed their need for speed in one of the racing games. Many of the campers like Ryan G and Lucas enjoyed playing pool. Ryan J and Kent enjoyed being able to play the many different types of games.

The Tweens got special permission to use the Wii on Tuesday. They decided to have a Wii Bowling Tournament. In the final round were Mike, Scotty, Lucas, and Trevor. Mike was the winner for the day. Every single camper enjoyed taking a swim in the pool in the afternoon.

Wednesday was the last water park field trip. The forecast had said rain all day, but it ended up being an absolutely beautiful day. The campers were sad that the drop slides were closed, but they still had a great time. Leah showed the group how she could beat everyone at the card game of War.

Thursday was the perfect day for a movie. Maggie and Rebecca even came back for a visit. One of the group’s movies broke down and each of the Tweens got a free movie ticket. Drew was so excited about getting to see a free movie on another day. After the movies was a great lunch at McDonalds. The Tweens enjoyed eating ice cream and drinking smoothies to cool down.

The week will be finished with the great Tween Karaoke Party at Kristof’s, which was a blast at the end of the first session.

It has been an awesome summer and all of the staff has really enjoyed working with the Tween campers. We wish you all the best of luck in the up and coming school year and we hope to see you next summer!!!
