"There are always going to be things that make you nervous and uncertain. That’s life. And in my lucky life, I have it too – the beginning of the new sports season, meeting new people, making important decisions. I keep a small, core group of really good friends. Most have been my teammates for years. We have shared a lot together. They have seen the good, the bad and the ugly sides of me, and they still accept me. They have taught me that it’s how you treat others that gives you value in life."

- Mia Hamm, Soccer, three-time Olympic medalist, two-time World Cup champion, four-time NCAA champion

 

   

Opening day for SPIRIT sports camp always begins on a Sunday. Campers arrive between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. Signs are posted at the Kent School campus to direct you to the main entrance for registration.

During registration, campers sign in, provide any medications they may require to the camp nurse, turn in cell phones, and get their dorm assignments. Then they head to their dorms to unpack. Families are welcome to visit their child's room to help them unpack and to tour the campus. Your child's Staff Advisor and Camp Director will be available to meet with you and share and overview of the camp with you during this time.

 A typical opening day at SPIRIT looks like this...

 

Campers arrive from all over the U.S. as well as from other countries...

 

They are greeted with a smile...

 

And head to the registration building...

 

Where they get their room assignments...

 

Hand in their cell phones...

Register their medications...

 

Get a quick snack...

 

And meet the camp staff...

Then they head to their dorms...

 

And with the help of their parents and friends, carry in their luggage...

 

Meet their roommates...

 

Unpack...

 

 

Hang photos of those they want to remember during their stay...

 

And say hello to others who were staying in their same dorm...

 

When they are done, they say good bye to their families...

 

And then venture out to tour the campus...

 

Where they meet up with old friends...

 

And gather in the lower field...

 

After catching up on each others' activities during the past year...

 

And taking a minute out of the hot sun to get refreshed...

 

They are off...

 

On their way for the first time up those hills...

 

Ready to begin a new year of fun, friendships, and sports...
