If you can’t tell by the updated site, the theme for 2009 is Pirates vs. Ninjas and we’re looking to have a heap of fun this year. There are some great activities lined up and we have a heap of prizes and awards.

I hope everyone’s having a good time at Skeeter but don’t forget to add Mardi Gras 2009 to your calendars, September 25th-27th.

Keep your eyes here for updates before and during camp!

…and that means two things:

1) summer is almost here
2) it’s just about time to announce the theme for MG’09!

Break out the sunscreen, we’ll see you in Nanaimo for the May long weekend!

Camp was a huge success yet again. With great weather and some incredibly fun activities, over 500 campers made the Clash of the Clans fantastic for all.

We worked so hard to get everyone off to the ferries this morning that half our staff ended up missing the 2:20 ferry ourselves. No worries, 2 hours in the sun isn’t the end of the world.

A big thank you goes to the entire staff whose small number (13) still managed to run the camp flawlessly.

I’d also like to thank all the campers - you were amongst the most active and well-behaved we’ve seen!

As soon as we clean up we can take a couple of months to rest before we start planning Mardi Gras 2009.

See you at the other group camps!

We arrived yesterday afternoon, unloaded the truck, set up a few things and grabbed dinner in town. This morning brought us a glimmer of sun for continued preparation followed by shorts and shirt weather this afternoon.

It’s now almost midnight and the clans have arrived all evening to fill the campsite.

We’re looking forward to more great weather tomorrow for the Highland Games!
