2010 Camp Nubar Winter Reunion
January 26, 2010
Sometimes it feels like summer is ages away, so AGBU Camp Nubar
counselors, campers and alumni welcomed the New Year with a Camp Reunion
at St. Leon Armenian Church on Saturday, January 9, 2010. It was a
wintery day filled with fun, friends and food. Over a hundred campers
and counselors came from as far afield as New York, New Jersey,
Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Canada to attend the celebration and
reconnect with friends and colleagues from Camp Nubar.
As part of the day’s activities, reunited campers took part in two
classic Camp Nubar activities: “Dragon’s Mouth,” during which time
campers run around a gymnasium trying to avoid being tagged by a chain
of people, and “Knock-Out,” a variation of basketball.
“We receive requests each year for events that will reunite campers
while they anxiously await the start of camp. When campers and
counselors greeted one another, you could see their excitement and the
same spirit they exhibit during the summer months,” says Jennifer
Omartian, Camp Nubar Director 2009.
The buzz throughout the day was the excitement for the upcoming summer,
activities, and cabin arrangements. Everyone is anxious for the start of
yet another unforgettable summer at Camp Nubar, which will be filled
with returning and new campers and counselors from all over the world.
