Day 4: Last day of a wonderful weekend! We started off at the Maine Escape Games. With hard work and team work all the teams escaped! We then enjoyed a great carnival with games and a virtual reality rollercoaster. Followed by a snowball fight and dance in the Bay Mist traveling along Casco Bay. To end the evening we announced the Camper and Counselor of the year. We are so incredibly happy for them! It is bittersweet this weekend has come to an end, but we wish everyone a great year ahead and can’t wait to see everyone next year!

Day 3: We had an amazing time tubing at Seacoast Adventure Park, the snowy weather was perfect! We then spent some time crafting, and then headed to the ice rink for some skating. Soon after we headed to Falmouth Professional Firefighters Local 5306 for dinner, we are very appreciative of your hospitality! To end the evening we played some games, celebrated one of the camper’s birthdays and one of our counselor’s promotion! We are so very happy for them!

Day 1: Everyone arrived safely, we enjoyed our time at the trampoline park, had a great meal and to end the day we painted some great artwork!
Day 2: We hit the road bright and early! We arrived to Camden Snow Bowl to enjoy some skiing and snowboarding. The campers had a great time enjoying the slopes throughout the day. We then had dinner with the Rockland Fire Department, we are so appreciate of their generosity!

Last weekend was our first annual Battle of the Bridges hockey game between Portland Fire Department & South Portland Fire Department. All proceeds went to our local Portland Firefighters Burn Foundation. Thank you to all who came out and played, the fans watching, and all the volunteers and local businesses that supported this event! A special thank you to the event coordinators who made this possible, Captain. Walsh, Evan Kleene, Travis Ferrante, and Jacob Garrison! This year we raised $15k, thank you all for your support!
