MAINTAINING SUMMER CAMP
THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
One	big	part	of	what	
makes	campers	and	
counselors	enjoy	camp	is	
meeting	new	friends.
Riding	horses,	creating	
colorful	tie-dye	shirts,	joining	
wakeboarding	adventures	
and	conquering	the	wall	
climbing	challenge	is	so	
much	fun	with	a	camp	mate.
Friendships	at	camps	
have	this	unique	
connection	and	they	
become	a	family.
However,	the	challenge	
lies	on	how	you	can	keep	
the	connection	alive	even	
after	summer	ends.
LASTING FRIENDSHIPS
AT SUMMER CAMP
Summer	camp	is	a	
perfect	place	to	meet	
your	future	best	friend.
Some	confess	a	30-year	
connection	from	a	cabin	
mate.
Others	even	spend	
Thanksgiving	together.
What	makes	the	
relationship	in	camps	
different?
It’s	the	fact	that	kids	
chose	who	they	want	to	
connect	with	while	being	
away	from	their	parents	
for	an	extended	time.
They	get	to	face	fun	and	
exciting	challenges	in	a	
new	environment	with	a	
stranger	whom	they	feel	
connected	with.
A	kid	trying	wakeboarding	
for	the	first	time	may	feel	the	
adventure	is	nerve-wracking.
But	finding	someone	who	
feels	the	same	way	during	
the	activity	can	make	him	at	
ease	and	instantly	found	a	
confidant	all	throughout	
summer.
At	camp	there	are	no	labels.	
There	are	no	judgments.
Each	child	can	show	who	
they	really	are	and	find	
someone	who	will	accept	
them	as	they	are.
Children	are	free	to	let	go	of	
their	troubles	they	may	be	
facing	and	be	who	they	want	
to	be.
This	makes	summer	camp	
friendship	meaningful	and	
long-lasting	– because	there	
are	no	pretentions.
KEEPING THE
CONNECTION AFTER CAMP
Sadly,	the	summer	season	
ends,	and	school	year	comes.
You	can	keep	friendships	
alive	with	these	ideas:
STAY	IN	CONTACT
Maintaining	friendship	is	not	
as	stressful	and	difficult	as	it	
might	seem.
Keeping	in	touch	regularly	
can	keep	your	relationship	
steady	even	with	distance.
Before	leaving	camp,	get	the	
contact	details	of	your	cabin	
mates.	
Intentionally,	talk	or	text	them	
every	now	and	then.
Ask	them	how	they	are	doing	
in	school	and	at	home.	
Never	ignore	their	text	
messages	and	respond	when	
you	can.
Call	them	when	you	can	too.	
Such	actions	will	show	how	
much	you	care	for	them.
CONNECTING	THROUGH	
SOCIAL	MEDIA
Nowadays,	the	simplest	and	
most	direct	way	to	reconnect	
with	someone	is	via	social	
media.
If	you	forgot	to	get	your	cabin	
mate’s	social	profile,	you	can	
simple	search	them	by	name.
Messaging	them	is	fairly	
simple	as	the	platforms	offer	
messaging	services	for	free	
when	you	have	access	to	the	
internet.
Popular	networks	are	
Facebook,	Twitter,	Google+	
and	Pinterest.
Most	summer	camps	will	host	
reunions	often.	
Don’t	miss	joining	these	
occasions.	
ATTEND	CAMP	REUNIONS
It	is	the	perfect	time	to	
reconnect	with	your	camp	
friends.
Invite	them	to	join	too	and	you	
can	even	agree	to	go	together	if	
you	live	nearby.
Writing	letters	or	sending	
postcards	can	be	a	lot	more	
special	than	sending	a	simple	
text	message.	
WRITE	LETTERS	AND	
SEND	GIFTS
It’s	heartwarming	receiving	a	
mail	with	a	letter	from	your	
camp	BFF	right?
Sending	gifts	during	your	
friend’s	birthday	or	
celebrations	shows	you	care.	
Presents	are	personal.
You	can	send	it	together	with	an	
old	funny	camp	photo	together	
to	personalize	your	gift.
Summer	camp	is	always	a	
childhood	highlight	in	your	
scrapbook	of	life.	
Friends	at	camp	leave	a	mark	in	
anyone’s	heart.
They	know	you	and	can	pick	up	
nuances	without	making	
lengthy	explanations.
Keep	the	friendship	alive	and	
look	forward	to	meeting	again	
in	the	next	summer	camp.
