America’s Pastime
Jason P. had never been to a professional baseball game.
Until Friday night. “It was exciting to share it with my Pok-O-MacCready friends. Added Louis and Scott C: “It was cool going out with friends and just hanging out.”
Those three joined the rest of the Senior campers and staff at Centennial field in Burlington, to watch the Vermont Lake Monsters, a minor league affiliate of the Washington Nationals.
Edwin echoed his friends sentiments in saying “I liked watching the game and having a night out of camp with friends.”
The game begain an hour late, due to weather, but “The kids were incredibly enthusiastic,” said Headmaster Josh Bornt, who has been taking the senior boys to a ball game every year since 2002. “In fact, there was a lot of goofy energy!”
As for the game, “It was good,” reviewed Taylor. “The Lake Monsters were leading when we had to leave to catch the ferry home.”

Going to the baseball game was reward enough for all of the campers, but one Senior boy came away with an added bonus.
