HUNDREDS FROM MANY STATES ENJOYED METROPOLIS OF BOSTON SUMMER CAMP

They came from throughout New England and from Florida, Texas, New York, New Mexico, Virginia, New Jersey, North Caroline, Tennessee and Montreal, Canada!  More than 600 campers gathered at the St. Methodios Faith & Heritage Center in Contoocook, NH this summer for another successful season in the picturesque woods of the granite state.  His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios who visited the campers every week has been receiving positive feedback daily.

The campers enjoyed a carefully planned camp program which featured workshops, sports activities, camp fires, dancing, chanting, baking prosphora and koulourakia and much more.  Children with special needs who attended this summer’s program stayed in the newly constructed cabin for children with special needs which was donated by the Stavros Niarchos Foundation.  The cabin will be formally dedicated at the September 13 Open House at which time all those attending will also have the opportunity to see the progress of the Retreat House construction for which has already begun.   

Many campers and their families are expected to return to Contoocook on Saturday, September 13, for the Annual Open House.  Metropolitan Methodios is looking forward to seeing everyone.
