Enchanted Hills Camp Open House Celebrates Friendships, Old and New - LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired

On a beautiful, sunny, warm but not too warm Saturday at the end of July, we held our first Open House at Enchanted Hills Camp. Over 200 friends, neighbors and campers gathered together to enjoy live music, swimming, paddle boating on Lake Lokoya, and tours of the camp grounds led by LightHouse CEO Bryan Bashin and Camp Director Tony Fletcher.

Here are some photo highlights of the event. We’ll be uploading additional photos to our Facebook page shortly.

Playing bluesy rock and roll, the day’s musical entertainment was provided by a group of camp counselors calling themselves “The Funny Hats”. Derek Dittmar offered rousing vocals and played acoustic guitar along with stalwart accompaniment by counselors Rachel Grider on keyboards and Jimmy Cong on conga drums
