After the camp season ended, we took a group of teens up to the Adirondacks for the traditional camping and hiking trip. This trip is one of the requirements for the second-highest rank at Camp Sertoma and has been a part of programming since at least the early 1980s. (We'd love to hear from folks about their own memories of this trip!) This year, we hiked Bear Den, Cascade, and Porter. It may have rained some... okay, a lot! ... but you wouldn't know it from everyone's positive attitude! A big thank you to Amie, Taylor, and the Lyons for lending us tents and the Camp Sertoma Alumni Association for contributing gas money for our paramedic and an ice cream treat after finishing Bear Den!
