Echoes of laughter and singing linger on Johns Island this afternoon, but none of the campers who made the happy sounds remain here. It’s hard to believe, but First Session has come to an end.

Early this morning, our campers boarded the departure boats and sailed away from Johns Island and towards their reunions with family and friends. We are sad to see them go, but also grateful for the shining month we got to spend with them, surrounded by nature and embraced by this beautiful camp community that stretches far beyond this island and the precious weeks we shared here.

Thank you for all the memories, First Session campers! We hope that you will carry the spirit of Nor’wester with you wherever your path may lead.
