A wrap on 2026 Camp Friendship!

What an incredible 16th year of camp this has been! Days were packed with swimming, POUND, archery, tie-dye, arts & crafts, and of course the foam party. Nights kept the magic going with campfires, karaoke, our annual drum circle, the Barn Party Extravaganza, and the very special Tongan evening.

Here's to all the friendships made, the memories built, and the joy shared! We're already counting down the days to next August!

Day 4 at Camp Friendship was one to remember!

We wrapped up our crafts and tie-dye projects, got the treat of not one but two trips to the waterfront! In the middle we had our favorite foam party. Always a blast, and always the biggest smiles. It was a beautiful day to spend in the sunshine.

We also honored some incredible milestones celebrating campers who have been coming to Camp Friendship for 5, 10, and even 15 years. What an amazing testament to this community!

We ended the night with one of our campers' most loved traditions, Open Mic Night! Everyone prepared their acts and couldn't wait to perform for their friends. So much heart, fun and the perfect way to close out our last night at camp.

Today we pack up our things and head home, but we're already counting down the days until next August!

Day 3 at Camp Friendship was one for the books!

We kicked things off with campers choosing between POUND or a camp walk around the property to get the morning moving, followed by yoga to keep the good energy flowing. Then we gathered together for our cabin and all-camp pictures!

The Art Bus rolled in for a special visit, leading campers through customizing tote bags and designing collages in the art studio. Down at the waterfront, campers soaked up the sun, floated with friends, and made the most of all the water toys.

Then it was time for one of camp's most anticipated nights, the Barn Party! We shuttled over to Camp Burgess for a pizza party under the pavilion, and once the music started calling our name, we made the walk over to the barn to dance the night away. Lots of laughs, lots of dancing, lots of singing. The perfect way to end another unforgettable day at Camp Friendship!

Day 2 at Camp Friendship was a full one!

From high-energy POUND to peaceful yoga, campers found their rhythm in every way today. Down at the waterfront, we soaked up the sun kayaking, swimming, and bouncing on the water trampoline, while arts & crafts stayed busy with friendship bracelets and tie-dye masterpieces.

The highlight of the day? Our annual drum circle! The energy was contagious as everyone came together to drum, dance, and sing. Pure joy all around.

And to end it all, we gathered around the fire for s'mores under the stars. The perfect way to close out another beautiful day at Camp Friendship!

Day one, done right! 🌺🔥

We’re officially moved into our cabins and Camp Friendship is underway. With a luau theme this week, we couldn’t have asked for a better start. Last night we headed to an unforgettable Tongan evening filled with Polynesian culture: traditional dance to the beat of the drums, a clothing lesson, fresh-carved coconut, and an incredible fire dance that had everyone in awe. We even got up close with handmade traditional clothing and instruments.

Malo (thank you!) to the Hiehiapo family for making night one so special. Can’t wait to see what the rest of the week brings!
