Camp is over and school has started—it’s a bittersweet time. Campers, we’ll miss you!
GILSLAND FARM
After eight fun-filled weeks of summer camp at Gilsland Farm, it’s time to clean out the cubbies and put the sprinkler away. But first, we wanted to revisit some of our favorite moments from the summer.
This year brought some changes to our program, including differentiated sessions for our older campers, and an expanded preschool program to add spots for our youngest. Of course, we kept the mainstays: plenty of time for outdoor play and exploration, lots of integrated arts and science, and of course, a daily mystery animal.
As we wish our campers a great start to their school year, it’s also a time to express our appreciation for the amazing educators who make the magic happen! Thank you to our amazing team of camp staff, teen volunteers, and the special guests who worked with our campers this summer.

FIELDS POND
Another wonderful summer spent outdoors with our campers has come to a close at Fields Pond Audubon Camp! We continue to enjoy welcoming back prior-year campers while adding new faces to our nature-loving group each summer. It’s always a joy to see our returning campers a few inches taller, now seasoned nature explorers happily showing the ropes to first-timers out on the trails. From wading in the pond to tracking animal signs in the woods, this summer was full of curiosity, laughter, and connection to the outdoors. We’ll leave you with one of our favorite moments — a group of campers striking their best “silly photo” pose on Camp Rock!

Happy campers!
