She's doing drama. Directing the juniors play again most probably. Its a great camp. Lots of interacting between the two camps as well and a lot of traditions and history.

And, its right on the Maine-New Hampshire border so shopping around the area is incredibly cheap!

What date are you flying out?

hi heather! thanks for that. this will be my second camp i go to, went to one last year, and was hoping for a better camp this year! i like this camp as the dates work well for me, cos im in uni, the exam period doesnt end til the 13th june, (i dont have my timetable yet so dont actually know when my last exam is), and also want a traditional, co-ed camp experience! thats cool, im actually quite stuck between two camps, Camp Schodack and this one. both look really great, and i have to wait til Sat to see which one wants me! getting excited about going again now. i bet u are aswell with it being ur first time! ave you been placed at this camp already then? xxx

i went to Camp Turk last year, the directors were a joke. so glad forest acres directors are nice :D . ive looked at rating for the camps and this one seemed sound. and the photos of the camp and views are amazing! im from tenby in west wales, but go to uni in Cardiff, (thats where i am now). where u from?
oh cool, bet its a relief to know where youre going already. keeo your fingers crossed for me on sat ! u got all the paper work and visa stuff to sort through now though? aw thats a shame, what u doing in uni? maybe you'll get excited about it when things settle down and it comes closer to the time. or when u go out and buy things for camp!
nah not spoken to anyone yet. i prob should have emailed the director, but ive left it too late now. will see them 2moro.getting excited about it now too! xxx
