Our trip home was a bit slow with rain and many other cars. We lost power for only 7 hours and feel privleged to have it back so soon. A day of clean-up is all we need to get things back in order here. Three cheers for your great staff - for a fun family camp and a terrific job keeping the camp safe. We wish you and Tom all the best with your new baby. We look forward to seeing him next summer! Carolyn & Colin Glad to hear all is well at WYO.

I am Sandy Cobb; PHIL COBB's great grand daughter, ROLAND COBB's grandaughter, PHIL & BETTY COBB's daughter and PAM COBB's sister. I live on GREAT POND in Belgrade Lakes year round, adjacent to CAMP RUNOIA which my parents bought in the late 50's.. (How fortunate is that?!) I am the luckiest CR alumnae ever, I think. Anyway, that being said, I was just on my dock and saw 5 green canoes heavily burdened with trip boxes, coolers and girls fashionably adorned with goofy hats and bandanas launch from a camp site @ Oak island across from my property and thought it just had to be a WYO crew overnighting on our lake. My heart raced. I couldn't let this slide! I was foolishly grinning from ear-to-ear! (Once a camper, always a camper, I say) So I whistled, yelled, hooted, jumped and basically made a total fool of myself, but the wind was against me and they didn't see my silly antics. Even though I never went to Wyo as a camper ( I was slightly obligated to stay @ Runoia, tough I know!) and didn't know these canoeists I felt a great rush of excitement and joie-de-vivre seeing the green canoes. It is heartwarming to see other campers delighting in the simple pleasures of canoeing with the wind at their back, totally oblivious to the outside world. So I googled Wyo and called Karen @ and she said, "no, they are at testing camp. She seemed kind of sorry she couldnt fulfill my little dream! She was lovely to chat with me. The last time I was at Wyo was @ the ribbon cutting ceremony I told her, 10 years ago when all the Cobbs and Thibodeauxs were together to commemorate your new Cobb lodge. That was a very special day for us. I am grateful for my camp experience and delighted that summer camps in general, but particularly single gender camps, are ALIVE AND WELL in this gorgeous state o Maine. Here's a "Bo-Bo" to ALL CAMPERS AROUND THE WORLD, to CAROL, Wyo and Runoia and all those who keep it humming. !!!!****WYO C@MPERs*****!!!! : u r the luckiest kids in the world, IMHO!! P.S. : I hope your gals at JMG testing camp have successful 'soapy water boil overs' for their WET DAY FIRES and that they can recall which billet is a black ash and which is a red oak. I remember fondly my training with GINNY GEYER [who was, of course, a Wyo gal who Runoia borrowed for a while :^) ] before I headed up to MOOSELOOKMEGUNTIC with my fellow counselor, Meg and my dog for our testing camp initiation...1972, I think.

Wish I could be there doing that right now instead of in rainy Birmingham, UK! I remember sweeping out the cabins with a builder's mask on because of the dust, and getting rid of chipmunk nests and freezing lake swim training clinics... all good! Don't forget about me yet, I WILL be back! Ah, brings back memories. Wish I could be there doing that right now instead of in rainy Birmingham, UK!

We had a long mud season due to the early departure of winter. You are always welcome to park at the end of the road and walk into camp. Sorry you couldn’t drive in.

Exciting to see things happening there! Happy Wyo Summer to all!
