Green3Whisper Mountain's high ropes cove probably never felt as big as it seemed to our guys this week! They felt every square inch of its vastness as they raked to (near) perfection! I don't think this cove has ever looked so good! For the past five years, our campers and our staffers have dealt with the dirt and mud as they experienced our course. But folks…that's all about to change!

They say Fall is the best time to plant trees!

We are lining our Activities Field with Red Oaks so that in years to come people may rest in their shade!  Shaun and Marty are building muscle…it's hard digging with so many rocks underground!  But what a beautiful addition to the camp!  Besides, anything worth doing takes a little muscle, right?!
