We're so excited that SMA Session 2 is finally here! We survived the recent heat wave and are ready for everything that is coming!

The first day of Session 2 is officially in the books, and camp is already buzzing with excitement. From new friendships to lots of laughs, campers are settling in and jumping right into the adventure that makes Stone Mountain Adventures so special.

Today's Quote of the Day was:

               "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it." – Charles Swindoll

What a great reminder as we kick off a new session together. Camp is full of new experiences, challenges, and opportunities to grow, and we love watching campers embrace each day with a positive attitude.

This morning started with plenty of energy as campers woke early. After breakfast in the Rhino Dining Hall, everyone met with their Crews. These small groups help campers connect, build friendships, and create a strong sense of community throughout the session.  Today we played a teambuilding game called "Pole Barn".

No matter what comes our way this session, we're ready for it. The heat wave is behind us, spirits are high, and the excitement for the weeks ahead is greater than ever. We can't wait to see friendships grow, confidence build, and memories made every single day.
