Camp Hollis is a special place to begin with add to that a gathering of some very special over 50 people and the result is one great time, twice a year, said Dorothy DeHollander of Oswego, an experienced camper. This event can truly grow in one s heart. There is much laughter and learning, many good friendships, both old and new, and a lot to experience that is joyful. The theme of this year s program is Back to Nature. Workshops will give campers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the beautiful setting at Camp Hollis, which overlooks Lake Ontario in the Town of Oswego.
Campers stay in modern cabins, with hot and cold running water, electricity, and flush toilets.
Some of the activities will include nature walks, nature crafts, drama, canoeing, and musical instruments made from natural materials, said James Farfaglia, parks and recreation coordinator for the youth bureau. All meals and snacks are provided to campers. Camping is a great opportunity to be with other seniors, said Betty Smith of Fulton.
