Camp Gertrude Coleman - Trussville, AL

We wrapped up another incredible week of summer camp on a high note! Our campers put their creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to the test as they designed, built, and raced their very own cardboard boats.

From brainstorming ideas and sketching designs to cutting, taping, decorating, and finally launching their creations into the water, the girls embraced every challenge with enthusiasm and determination. There were plenty of laughs, cheers, splashes, and unforgettable memories as each team set sail and showed off their hard work.

This week was filled with adventure, friendship, learning, and fun from beginning to end. We are so proud of everything our campers accomplished and grateful for the memories we made together.

Thank you to our amazing campers, staff, and volunteers for making this week such a success. We already can’t wait to do it all again next summer!
