Emerald Bay, Catalina Island – Jul ’25

Posted August 15, 2025 by DCole in Normal.

First day of Summer Camp – Sleeping overnight on the battleship USS Iowa
Ahoy Emerald Bay, the T648 pirates have landed. Hold onto your booty!
Thumbs Up! One of our favorite daily pursuits – meal time!
Another fun thing to do with what limited spare time we had – cutthroat Uno card games.
After full days of merit badge classes, extracurricular excursions of snorkeling, biking, and HIKING!
And what is summer camp without the requisite flawless T648-led all-camp flag ceremony?
Landing the War Canoe for our overnight under the stars, surrounded by curious foxes on Parsons Beach
T648 gathers early under our tree for Friday night’s final campfire after an awesome week on Catalina
Front row seats on the ferry – 22 miles back to Port of Los Angeles, and then the long trip home!
