Camp Life
Campers at Manitou-Lin are treated to a traditional summer overnight camp experience: twice-weekly campfires (complete with traditional camp songs), daily chapel meetings (each day's skit and/or songs focuses on one of the YMCA's Core Values), family-style dining at meal times, and a little bit of healthy competition for each week's Battle for the Paddle (an award given at the end of each week to the most enthusiastic, spirited, actively involved cabin).

Famous quotes containing the words camp and/or life:
“There was a deserted log camp here, apparently used the previous winter, with its “hovel” or barn for cattle.... It was a simple and strong fort erected against the cold, and suggested what valiant trencher work had been done there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It had been drilled into us that when an audience pays to see a performance, it is entitled to the best performance you can give. Nothing in your personal life must interfere, neither fatigue, illness, nor anxiety—not even joy.”
—Lillian Gish (1896–1993)
