The camp is based at Northlands Primary and its theme “keep it clean” refers to mind, body and the environment.The children and counsellors have been rehearsing songs at their camp and it paid off, the campers were well rehearsed and gave the seniors at Packwood Home a quality production. It included dance, songs and campers Ms Fleming and Mr Broadbelt reading to the seniors.Members of the seniors audience included Dalton Tucker, Hilda Smith, Albert Simmons and George Souza. Nelda Smith, nurse manager, and Karen Mitchell, accounts office manager from Packwood Home, said they were delighted with the performance.Ms Douglas said: “Camp Pontoon campers and counsellors love our seniors and under the Summer Day Camp new initiative “We Care” campaign, it was only fitting for us to celebrate the Seniors at Packwood Rest Home.“The campers and counsellors collected over seven large bags of dry and canned goods which ranged from cases of toilet paper to dish washing liquid, cereal, cream, juice, tuna fish, etc. It is our hope that during these hard economic times, the generosity of Camp Pontoon will help to alleviate some of the burden for our seniors.“The campers and counselors truly enjoyed visiting with the seniors and they were in awe at how agile and beautiful many of the seniors appeared, especially because we learned that they were many were 90 years plus, with the eldest being 105. We had a great, great time sharing our Camp Creed and singing songs and reading for the seniors.”In addition to the laughter of the children and seniors it was noticeable to see how much the young camp counsellors enjoyed the event.Calin Maybury, 18, has just graduated from The Berkeley Institute.
