A new day dawns at Camp Belknap's main dock.  Reveille blows at 7:10 am.

The cabin that wins inspection always gets a prize, like candy at movie night.

At breakfast, the last boy to do the stacking signal brings up dirty dishes.

After meals, we sign up for our favorite activities.  I love all the great choices.

To keep the camp sparkling clean, everyone helps with camp duties.

The ropes course first period was a blast.  Good thing we had spotters!

During second period, I earned my Yeoman Award in archery.  Nice form!

Next comes Morning General Swim.  Everyone brings a buddy.

Only at Belknap can you play Donut Ball.  Where is the ball in this picture?

Some boys who didn't want to swim played basketball on the Junior Courts.

At lunch time, our leader asked us how we spent our morning.

Siesta is the perfect time to write letters home or enjoy a quick nap.

I went to third period crafts with a friend from another cabin.

Cadets have swim lessons in the afternoon.  Future frogmen?!

At the kayak and canoe period we learn how to right a capsized boat.

Middlers and Besserers got to go sailing.  Ready about, mates!

Seniors got fired up for some hot four-on-four beach volleyball games.

Nothing cools you down like a backflip into Winnipesaukee!  Ahhh ... splash!

Afternoon General Swim is also a perfect time to join a friend for tennis.

Every evening, a different leader gives an inspirational talk in the Chapel.

After dinner, we hang out in our division and play with our leaders.

Tonight's evening activity is a version of bombardment, called Doctor Ball.

At the end of every game, we cheer the other team.  Boomalacka!

At Belknap, it's easy to make new friends ... and keep them forever.

As taps plays in the background, a magnificent sun sets over Belknap.
