Theme

 

The 2025: Special Program has some …….
                          Wicked ….. good news for you!!

After a disruptive, twisting whirlwind blew us out of New Hampshire, we knew we needed to find a new home. We needed to find “a place where there isn’t any trouble”(Auntie Em’: The Wizard of Oz/1939). To find ” a place where there is love overflowing” (Dorothy :The Wiz/1978 ). A place that would be like” a handprint on my heart”. Elpheba/Glinda :Wicked/ 2003)

And so we landed at Camp Pembroke!

And because “it’s a place we’ve worked and waited for”(Elpheba &Glinda:’For Good’/Wicked ) we’ve decided we’re “not going to leave here ever, ever again” (Dorothy, Wizard of Oz, 1939).

Please join Special Program as we join Wicked AND the Wizard of Oz into what we hope will be a great “welcome home” theme. We know we did not wait our usual 15 years before repeating a theme, but how could we not revisit that there is no place like camp……In our new Pembroke home.

 

Each year, EC Week offers an interactive, entertaining theme. While the theme is incorporated into all activities throughout the week, one of the highlights is our nightly play. A dedicated number of volunteers work together to provide an exciting production bringing the story to life each night. Campers who so wish get to don costumes and be in show, too!
