A special guest joined us in Early Learning for story time today… Mayor Arunan Arulampalam! Mayor Arunan stopped by Camp Courant this morning to read one of his favorites to our Unit A campers: Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs & Ham! From funny voices to life lessons, and even learning more about his job, it was a morning filled with laughs and smiles with our new friend.
Thank you for visiting, Mr. Mayor! And yes, we do - we DO like green eggs & ham! ouby nd

Last week, as part of the campaign leading up to the annual Impact Awards, Camp Courant was featured on FOX61 as an organization making a significant impact on our community. Check out Cayla Cade’s story, featuring some campers and junior leaders!
Camp is closed today, but clearly our campers, junior leaders and staff are making the most of it - Happy 4th of July!

We had so much fun visiting Hartford's Camp Courant to speak to kids about substance use and personal safety. We talked about alcohol, va**ng, and ma*****na, plus how to ask for help. We think it's important to teach kids about these topics early, especially as the world around us changes so quickly. Thank you to our Torrington Counselor Makia Johnson and Senior Counselor Kelly O'Heron for doing such important work.
