Vantage PointYWCA CAMP CAVELL
Ships that Pass by Camp

Ever wonder where all those ships are going that pass camp each day?  Well we did too so we stopped in at Vantage Point in Port Huron to learn more.  They have a wonderful ship viewing center with computers that show you which ships are passing through, what they are carrying, and where they are headed around the world!  They also provide binoculars to use and volunteers to answer your questions.  They have a nice snack bar and displays as well. 

Next time you pass through Port Huron on your way to camp stop in!

the Chipmunk on YouTube...
I met this little fellow on vacation in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and he stole all our peanuts!  He had a hard time fitting them into his mouth and it is funny so tune in to watch!
