5 Year Blankets & 10 Year Jackets (At-Home Edition)

5 Year Blankets & 10 Year Jackets (At-Home Edition)

[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PdlS7wWttA[/embed] [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-PhXJ2UFz8[/embed] For long-time GAC campers and staff, receiving their Five Year Blanket is a BIG DEAL. Campers and staff look forward to being wrapped in their blanket at the final Appreciation Campfire of their 5th summer at GAC. This tradition is rich in history dating back to founder Manny Vezie's days playing football for Notre Dame. This year, due to the pandemic, we were not able to have in-person GAC sessions, but we did have a phenomenal group of 105 kids participate in GALA, our online leadership program. During super secret road trips (coordinated with parents) this summer, the GAC crew drove throughout the state of California surprising our 5 & 10 year campers! Congratulations to the amazing group of loyal GAC campers who celebrated their blanket & jacket years with us in 2020!
