Turn the World Around - Live in Our Global Neighborhood



International Visitors  at Holiday Hill Day Camp  end their day with a singing of "Turn The World Around"

Begin to embrace your global neighborhood reach out and make a  friend from another nation this year.  Singing, laughter, camp fun and smiles are all universal there are no language barriers.

Here is a link to the words and chords for the song Turn The World Around:

 With the University of Connecticut a close neighbor it is easy to meet and make global friends. The Uconn International Forum on Human Rights  and Leadership has captivated youth from around the world with team building activities and inspiration for change. Each step we make in developing a relationship of global community is a step toward world peace!  In the link below you will read how the Uconn program 2008 worked with Holiday Hill Day Camp, local professor emeritus Charles Prewitt and Kumarian Press to share a week of friendship and  networking.  Check out the link to an article here:             http://www.http//advance.uconn.edu/2008/080825/08082509.htm

Frozen in Time or Summer Special?

Is your view of the world frozen in time? Are you so buried in snow you can't tell where things are anymore? Has the winter got you down?

     Are you tired of shoveling, and then shoveling, and then plowing, sanding and shoveling?
                                    May I make a suggestion to ease your winter burden?


Fly Away....
Not what I had in mind
but that would work!


    Register for a Camp Session

Just think how hot and sunny
wet and splashy
fun and  relaxing
friendly and challenging
SUMMER
SPECIAL
that will be!



 See you at Holiday Hill Day Camp
  this summer!    

                               I feel better just thinking about summer!

Who Can Take The Best Shot?



This is the season to practice those 3 point basketball shots. Perfect the bounce from the  sideline to center court, and the team layup drill. While you are out there dribble over to the far end and go for the dream  shot.

Some day you are going to imagine the Holiday Hill Day Camp Dream Shot. The one swoosh that makes you a camp legend. That they talk about in the ropes course, on the pool deck and paddling down through the Hollow.

None of that can happen until you get your registration in and save a place courtside for you and your friends. Among all the ice and snow and school cancellations it is hard to think about summer but the ground hog said spring is coming so can summer be far behind? http://www.holidayrecreation.com/  hold a session for making that Dream Shot.

Insane Fisherman, Crazy Weather, Thoughts of Camp



Had Enough Winter? Obviously some are bothered by it more than others!

When the mountains of snow in our doorways starts to get us down it is the best time to sit down and make plans for summer fun!
