Waldo Photos this Summer!
Hi Parents & Guardians!
New program for this summer with our Photo Gallery. The photo gallery will still be accessible to everyone for free, yet there is a new feature that we are using that should help all of us that's available through our new Gallery for you to purchase - Help make things easier for you and help camp at the same time.
This summer, I'm excited to let you know about a new photo delivery service where you can get all the photos of your camper delivered straight to your phone! No more hunting and pecking through hundreds of photos every night!
This technology, offered by Waldo Photos, uses facial recognition to match your camper’s face to photos in our album, and then sends them to you via fun and friendly text messages just as they are being uploaded in to the Gallery. Learn how it works in this quick video.
Cost per camper:
$14.99 with 50% of proceeds going to camper scholarships!
Enroll from your phone

Hotel Accommodations in Athens
During the week of Camp Twitch & Shout we provide an opportunity for you to be around other families and get to know them during the camp week (ask about the "Pirate's Den"...). Mary Lamb is our Parent Rep and will be staying at The Graduate Hotel during the week of camp.
The Graduate Hotel still has rooms available for July 7th through the 13th - yet the night of the 13th (after camp is over - checking out on the 14th) is now completely booked and no rooms are available for that night. If you have not made your reservations yet...I highly recommend that you do it asap. Calling during the day time is best.
The Graduate Hotel is also the site of our Parent Workshops and The Foundry (which is a bar/event venue on site). During the week they allow guests to attend any of their events for free - others will have a cover charge. There is an Outdoor Pool and Coffee Shop & Lounge - no breakfast served.
$70 per night
The Graduate Hotel

The Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express on the other side of downtown have also just offered us a reduced rate as well. They do have this reduced rate available for Friday night July 13th. I have 10 rooms blocked each at the following hotels.
The Holiday Inn is a little closer and nicer and is about 7 blocks from The Graduate Hotel - it has a larger breakfast available yet not included in the rate. Outdoor Pool and Fitness Center.
The Holiday Inn Express is about 9 blocks yet includes breakfast. They have an Indoor Pool and Fitness Center.
