Dudley Camper Corner

WEEK 3

This week we’d like to start with a little tribute to the young men who were going to be Leaders this summer. They are a fantastic group of young men who you all would have been lucky to have leading your cabins, coaching your teams, and guiding your hikes and canoe trips.

Arts

Big Show

One of the grandest Dudley traditions is Big Show…our annual end of summer production that is always an original production written for camp. To get a taste of what one of these productions looks like you can watch our 2019 Big Show production, The Race, written and directed by #16321 Dan Lipin.

Big Show Casting Call

Hey, EVERYBODY!!! We have such vibrant theatre programs on both sides of the lake and I’m sure that ALL of us miss those magical, hysterical and poignant moments from our respective Wednesday and Saturday Night Shows.

Well, here’s your chance to get up on stage this summer – at least virtually. 

We want all members of the 2020 summer community who are interested in being in Virtual Big Show to go to fill out this form and send it in by July 17th. This needs to be a hard deadline, so please let us know right away.

Please be sure that you let your parents know that you want to participate, so they can read all communications between you and the creative staff. And please be sure that whatever email address you provide is one that is accurately entered and one that you will check frequently.

You and your parents may email me with any questions at – davo@campdudley.org

Let’s get going!!

Outdoors

One really valuable skill many campers pick up at camp is knot tying. It comes in handy in so many areas of our program…the climbing wall, the waterfront, or out on a trip in the ADKs. Take a look a this knot tying class with #25223 Liz Moore.

Athletics

Each day a camp features some really fun and exciting sports competitions, here’s a 2013 video highlighting some impressive plays from just one week at camp that we called Great Moments in Dudley Sports History.

At the end of the summer, we’ll be doing the first annual Dudley & Kiniya Virtual 5K! So we’ve put together a training program for you to get ready.

Week 3 WOD! Our very own Strength & Conditioning Coach, #24011 Paul Buehler, has created 5 Dudley WODs for each week of our program.

We’re offering 4 Team Majors this summer in Basketball, Soccer, Lacrosse, & Baseball.
