🎨❤️ COLOR WARS DAY — A CAMP PALMER TRADITION! 💙💚💛💜
There is something so special about the last day of Camp Palmer, and one of our favorite traditions is celebrating it together with Color Wars Day! 🌈☀️
Color Wars Day is not only a fun way to close our summer season — it is also a beautiful opportunity to celebrate growth and new beginnings. Our campers proudly wear the color representing the grade level they will be entering this fall.
After a summer filled with adventures, discoveries, friendships, learning, laughter, and so many special memories, today reminds us that every ending also brings a new beginning. 💕
To our amazing campers: as you begin your new school year, continue to learn, grow, be kind, support one another, and share your beautiful smiles wherever you go!

🌱🍓🍅 Garden Club – Growing Memories Together! 🍅🍓🌱
Today we enjoyed our last Garden Club visit of the Camp Palmer season, and what a sweet way to celebrate all the care we have given our little garden this summer!
Throughout the season, our campers learned, shared, explored, and worked together to care for our plants. Today, they had the joy of collecting some of the fruits of their work — fresh tomatoes and strawberries! 🍅🍓
Our garden may be small, but the memories, lessons, teamwork, and smiles that grew here were very special. 💚
Thank you to all our little Garden Keepers for helping our garden grow all summer long!
We planted, we cared, we learned, and we grew together.
Another beautiful Camp Palmer memory! 💚

🎁 One More Week of Giving with Toys for Tots! ❤️
Palmer Community, you asked, and we are happy to continue our Toys for Tots collection for one more week at the Charles Chrin Community Center!
While Toys for Tots is especially known for bringing joy to children during the holiday season, their mission of supporting children and families in need extends throughout the year. Every toy we collect is a small act of kindness that can make a meaningful difference in a child’s life. 🧸❤️
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has already joined us in this special effort. Your generosity has been wonderful to see, and we are grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up for others.
And, as requested by members of our community, we’re keeping the collection going for one more week! 🎁
If you would still like to participate, please stop by the Charles Chrin Community Center and donate a new, unwrapped toy.
Together, we can keep kindness going — not just during the holidays, but all year long. ❤️
Thank you, Palmer Community!

🏅 Week 9 at Camp Palmer — Olympic Champions! 🏅

Our Week 9 adventure was filled with so many moments that reminded us what Camp Palmer is all about — friendship, kindness, responsibility, teamwork, and making memories together. We love watching our campers encourage one another, try new things, laugh with their friends, and enjoy every adventure alongside our wonderful counselors.
Our trip to Dave & Buster’s was a huge hit! Campers enjoyed games, great food, prizes, and plenty of excitement with their friends.
We ended our week with one of our favorites — our Foam Party with Points Up Entertainment! There was dancing, laughter, bubbles, and LOTS of foam! What a fun way to celebrate another great week together.
🎭 And, of course, Character Day brought even more smiles as campers and counselors showed off some of their favorite characters and their creativity!
Between our special events, we also enjoyed our Palmer Pool days, games, activities, crafts, and plenty of time simply being together.
A special thank you to our Camp Palmer counselors who bring the energy, patience, kindness, and fun every day. ❤️

One more week to go, Camp Palmer families!
Let’s make every moment count!
