Today was nothing short of magical as we kicked off Summer 2025 at Raquette Lake Camps! The energy was contagious the moment the cars and buses rolled in, packed with eager campers some returning, others stepping into their Raquette journey for the very first time. The cheers, hugs, and high-fives as friends reunited were heartwarming. You could feel the excitement in the air as familiar faces lit up and new friendships began to spark.
Our first-year campers had a chance to explore their new home away from home with guided tours around camp.There’s so much to see, do, and experience, and we know they’re going to love every minute of it. Dinner brought a beloved tradition—spaghetti and meatballs! There’s just something about that first camp meal in the dining hall that sets the tone for the summer. A Raquette sunset is something special, and tonight’s was the perfect reminder of the unforgettable summer ahead with delicious ice cream included!
There’s so much more to come, campfires, Color War, carnival, tournaments, and so many surprises we can’t wait to reveal. But for now, we’re just grateful to have our camp family back together where they belong: at Raquette Lake. Here’s to an amazing Summer 2025!
