100 Years of Happy Campers

Whether you were a camper of yesterday or today, join us for Camp Sherwin’s 100th Reunion!  Bring your family along and share generations of memories.

We’ll play camp games old and new including Capture the Flag, Box Hockey, Tether Ball, Tug-of-War, Ring Olevo and more – even have a plane pass over Camp for the famous taffy & peanut drops.  A bonfire and camp sing-a-long, complete with storytelling, are sure to spark memories. And, there’s plenty of time to catch up and share!

Stroll Camp’s grounds – maybe you’ll venture down the familiar steps to the beach – or stop by the outdoor chapel for quiet reflection.

Cost is $5/person or $10/family and includes a full picnic and beverages*.  Dinner & brief program at 6 p.m.  Bonfire at 7 p.m. Reservations are appreciated by calling 452-3263 ext. 402 .

Help us locate former campers and counselors!  Bring your camp memorabilia! Pass this along to someone you know, call Tammy Roche, 452-1432 with a name and address.
