SNOWMAN MELTS!!!!!
(Posted February 10, 2010 by Randi)

A group of BHEC campers decided to meet up and build a snowman this morning. Within a half hour it had melted. One very smart camper figured out the answer to the riddle. The group's warmth carried over from the summer was too much for the snowman to endure.

So everyone, while you enjoy this snow day, just remember-BHEC SUMMER 2010 is heating up. Tell your friends that spaces are filling fast!




Jordans Back!!
(Posted February 2, 2010 by Jordan)

What an honor! After 20+ years of spending my summers in BHECamps, I have reached a really amazing point in my camping life. I am excited to take on role as Head Counselor for this upcoming summer. So far, the amount of support and congrats from campers, staff and parents has been overwhelming. I thank each and every one of you!
Lastly Linda, I appreciate you giving me this incredible opportunity.
 
There was a great turnout at the BHEC Reunion on Jan 31st. The kids were all playing games and having  fun on the rides. In addition, Linda and I were able to introduce ourselves and take questions from parents in the Skybox. Thank you to Jon Geller, our Waterfront Director, for emphasizing his focus on creating a brand new Instructional Swim Program.
Our 2nd meeting was just as successful. We had the chance to meet the LIT 1's as well as their parents. The questions and comments will guide us as we continue to develop an amazing new LIT Program.
 
For those of you who do not know me, I started camp in 1988 as a 7 year old Bunk 1 camper. From age 7-14 I was proud make my way from The Hill, through Junior Unit, and onto Senior Unit...the best times of my life. I went on to become a CIT 95 which trained me to become a counselor in Junior Unit for 3 more years. From there I took to the lake, where I guarded for 6 years...I emphasize that there was no pool yet! For the following summers, I was LIT Head for 2 summers followed by 2 summers as Waterfront Director. Becoming Head Counselor is the cherry on top.
 
Along with Hellen and Norah, my wonderful wife and cuter than life baby, we are all looking forward to creating and sharing more true BHEC experiences.
 
See you in Copake!

Reunion A Smash Hit!!
