Session 2 of Windells came and went in a flash. Camp doubled attendance from the first session but camp was still not crowded, which meant more laps and fewer lines.

Slack lines were introduced to camp last summer. They are a great way to work on balance as well as building endurance. Speaking of balance, Camp Director Marsha Hovey leads a daily yoga/stretch session in the courtyard for whomever would like to join and get all stretched out and observe your inner qi (pronounced chi).

Session 2 brought more sunny days and new features and lines. 4bi9 hosted their first sponsored session with a close to full crew, including the likes of Steve Stepp, Nicky Keefer, Brady Perron, John Kutcher, Collin Collins, Dale Talkington, AJ Dakoulas, and friends.

The coaches work very hard making sure their campers reach their goals while having fun and enjoying the private park.
