We had a great time at Dave & Buster's last night at our annual Alumni Trivia Night! The team "You Can't Ride in my Trivia Wagon" came out victorious, but more importantly it was another great way for us to spend time with our alumni and raise some money to help people come to camp. We hope our alumni join us for more events!

Although a somewhat outdated tradition, did you know that February 29th is known as Bachelor’s Day. It originates from an Irish folk tale in which a nun, St. Brigid, petitioned the Irish patron saint, St. Patrick, to allow women to propose to men too.

St. Patrick consented to allow women to pop the question — but only on one day, every four years.

So ladies, according to St. Patrick, today is your day!

Just don't forget to check out YMCA Camp Kon-O-Kwee Spencer for a beautiful, unique, and memorable wedding venue!

🫶Words cannot begin to express our gratitude to Renewal by Andersen LLC, who graciously donated brand new replacement windows for Scoletti and Thomson lodges on our Spencer side of Camp last month. They donated brand new windows and brought an entire crew to install them, ensuring a welcoming space for all who enter these lodges.
