Our daughter attended Camp Hillcroft for the first time last summer. When people ask me about her camp experience I always say I gave them my little baby and they gave me back an independent and confident little girl. My daughter loves camp and we are returning again this summer. Thank you Camp Hillcroft for the wonderful experience you have given my daughter. We are counting down the weeks to camp!
As the rain, snow and freezing rain head our way in Dutchess County, Greg and I are sitting in our camp office planning and working on summer 2019!! On cold dreary days I find myself thinking about the summer and the best day of my year!!! Better than my birthday..better than Christmas and yes better than my wedding anniversary!!!!!
It's the most anticipated day at Camp Hillcroft...the day that all camp directors dream of...the day that all summer camps work towards all year round! My favorite part of camp and my favorite day of the year is....... the first day. The energy that is flowing through the camp, even before the campers arrive, is crazy. Counselors are so excited to meet their campers and really get the ball rolling.
As those first cars pull up, there is an intense mix of emotions; excitement, anxiousness, happiness, and even a slight feeling of fear. But once all those kids run out of their cars carrying their back packs, and the biggest smiles you could ever imagine, the atmosphere drastically changes and it’s one of the best feelings in the world! You suddenly know that you are in for the best summer of your life, and can’t wait to see what’s next in store! Boy do we miss camp :(
