“Those Were the Days” “THOSE WERE THE DAYS” Cape Cod Sea Camps Alumni Magazine Cape Cod Sea Camps Alumni Magazine 1 Dear Friends: Camp is a string of magical moments threaded together into a vibrant tapestry which creates the story of camp each summer. Every moment at camp can potentially change a life, make an impact or create signif- icance. All summer long, but especially at the end of the summer, we hear stories of the undeniable influence the camp experience has had on a child, an individual or a family. For example, an article titled “The Afterglow” written by Stephen Wallace, Resident Director of Counselor Training, for Psychology Today, invokes the following response from a recent CCSC graduate of the Counselor Training Program. The article deals with the role of summer camps in helping young people master the three primary developmental tasks of late childhood and adoles- cence, “Reading ‘The Afterglow’ brings back so many learning experiences and memories of camp! I still think about how much it (camp) helped me grow and prepared me for more independence in my life!“ How are these flashes of camp memories so gripping and profoundly emotional? Maybe they are the result of campers and staff focusing their energies only on the camp experience, forcing distractions of the world outside the “camp bubble” to disappear and sharing each tiny piece of summer camp with genuinely interested adults and peers. The in- tensity of this focus imbues each person to be fully participatory, engaged and seeking ways to create positive connections and contributions with each other and with the camp community as a whole. Magic happens naturally and especially when groups of people of all ages work together towards a common goal. The magic of camp includes sharing in the world of nature and this spectacular location on Cape Cod, the energy created by a song at a campfire or an all camp gathering, cele- brating a milestone reached, linking up with a friend or favorite counselor, or just listening to the silence of a summer evening. Magic also happens when voices are heard and listened to. “The positive peer culture it (camp) provided and the thoughtful, engaged guidance of the coun- selors really cultivated a strong sense of being inside of me, one who became a confident and compassionate leader.” ~ A CCSC Alumni enrolling her son for his first experience in a resident camp. The meaningful consequences of the shared experience called “CAMP” generates a better un- derstanding of “self”. The importance of making decisions independently, using the many community resources available to ask for help and support when experiencing difficulties; be- ing self-reliant by making positive choices and accepting responsibility for personal behavior; demonstrating self-confidence by expressing confidence in an ability to succeed educationally and socially; embracing opportunities to try new things through exploration, making new friends, and contributing positively to the community as a whole; and finally, respecting oneself, oth- ers and the institution of camp are the valued outcomes of the camp experience. The path of self-awareness nurtures one’s growth and well-being. “She has been forging friendships (at camp) that carry her through the year, beyond camp. She has an enthusiasm to participate and attempt just about any sport. I feel the exposure to your multitude of programs is much to credit for this. She feels like she is a part of camp…….like going home.” ~ Parents of a 2014 camper The memories, the magic and the ultimate meaning of the camp experience expand beyond the summer, like ripples in a pond from a thrown pebble. The dazzling tapestry created each sum- mer at camp is woven with unending magical moments …… I encourage your connection to Cape Cod Sea Camps and if you have a friend or family interest- ed in our programs or would like current information, please let us know.
