Although we are sad to see our campers go, our last day of camp was still magical!! Our closing ceremony, talent show, and goodbyes demonstrated the creativity, heart, and strength of our campers. We wish everyone safe travels as they make their way back home. See you next year, Kesem to the Future!! 💙💚💙

Today our campers explored the final frontier during Space Exploration day! We tie dyed tee shirts, held our space race, let loose with our messy games, and ended the day with karaoke and mini golf. Our campers have been having an amazing time and we are so proud of how much they’ve grown over the last few days!! 🪐 🚀🔭
