My family
His two sons have been campers and counselors at Fessy. Currently his wife MaryAnn is a senior counselor in the half-day program and his daughter Becca is the camp program director.
My favorite thing about camp…
Sports, Sports and more Sports. I love playing, running, coaching and refereeing sports at camp. My favorite sports activity is running and participating in the upper camp floor hockey tournament.
His favorite camp memory was building and painting an Adirondack bench with the Teen Trippers. Many of whom were his CITs last summer.
