It was another rainy day at Camp Jabberwocky, but that didn’t stop us from having a blast all day long! The blog title was inspired by Phillip, who said today made him feel like he had “friends forever” at camp. We DO have friends forever at camp, Phillip! You’re so right!
This morning we opened up the Tan Dog Tavern for made to order breakfast! Thanks to Kim, Kaitlyn, Jordan, and Patty for whipping up the most delicious breakfast to kick off the day!
A+ presentation!!

Michael works at Home Depot during the year and helps customers find what they’re looking for in the store, so we made a comedy sketch about it!
