Mary Trafton Simonds - Not to many years ago Mary Trafton Simonds and her husband Bill took a canoe ride during Family Camp. They wanted to explore the islands and enjoy the soothing peace of Moose Pond. Mary’s never forgotten “J” stroke guided the canoe.

What others are saying . . . “Family camp... is where my children learned independence and responsibility, and where we have, for the last 17 years, experienced the rewards of lifetime friendships, and the joy of having unabated fun.” "… The experience is renewing every year, and a spiritual high that lasts from August to August." “The children love the freedom of going to their favorite activities and we adults feel free to pick and choose how active we want to be. My sister and I especially love to come together with our children for a fun, low–stress time in a beautiful and memorable place!”
