2026 Newsletter #7
Welcome to the penultimate newsletter of the Pemi 2026 season! We’re down to the final five days of the summer here in Wentworth, but you’d never know it from all that’s still happening. In true Pemi fashion, our final week of camp is probably our busiest stretch of the entire summer, as the boys seek […]
2026 Newsletter #6
Hello from Wentworth! This week’s newsletter comes to you a bit late and will have a slightly different format. To break the fourth wall and offer an explanation, the dual demands of camp life and parenthood have eaten into my normal blocs of time to write, and so this will be a somewhat abbreviated update […]
2026 Newsletter #4
A brief programming note at the top: This is the fourth of our weekly newsletters, but the first of our second session, for the 2026 season.

2026 Newsletter #3
Greetings from the shores of Lower Baker Pond! As noted in the opening newsletter, occasionally the rhythm of a Pemi week will necessitate the weekly newsletter coming out on Wednesday rather than Tuesday, and this is one of those weeks. We’ve continued barreling along here with non-stop activities, games, trips, and fun. As Kenny shared […]

Defining Photos of 2025
As 2025 draws to a close, we’re excited to look back on a few of the defining photos from Pemi’s 118th summer. Our summer theme in 2025 was “joy,” and looking back on these shots I’m reminded of all the fun that our campers and staff had as we spent time together living simply and […]
Pemi 101: Campfire
If you asked 100 Pemi alumni to name the place in the world they most associate with natural serenity, I’d venture that a sizable percentage of them would name Pemi’s Campfire Circle on Senior Beach. It’s a spot that holds special meaning for generations of Pemi campers and staff thanks to both its stunning physical […]
2025 Newsletter #8
Hello Pemi Community, Hard as it is to believe, it’s now been just over seven weeks since the Pemi 2025 summer wrapped up – the length of the full camp session. I suspect I’m not alone in feeling like the time from closing day until now seems far shorter than the camp season itself did. […]
2025 Newsletter #7
Greetings from Pemi! Somehow we’ve already arrived at the last week of the summer. Next week you’ll receive the season’s final newsletter that details all of our end-of-season festivities along with some wrap-up thoughts on Pemi’s 118th summer. Today’s newsletter will be a relatively brief effort, as I try to squeeze it in while also […]

Hello from the Shores of Lower Baker Pond, We’re in the midst of another warm, beautiful stretch of weather here at Pemi, with the sun expected to be shining all week and temperatures sitting in the 80s for the next several days. As I write Pemi campers are out waterskiing, paddling on canoes and kayaks, […]
