The second session has just started … and also has all the fun! The pioneers enjoyed yesterday of their first excursion to the amazing Saas-Fee glacier.
Besides the glacier the pioneers had the opportunity to visit an ice tunnel and also admire the amazing views of the mountains.
You can see the excursions photos in our Photo Gallery.
Moris from JB2 also enjoyed a spin in the Super 7.
As you can see from the photos the sky is blue and the weather is warm
and the second session of International Summer Camp Montana is off to a roaring start!!
Today the entire junior section walked up to the “lac de Chermignon” where there is a large barbecue and play area.
The highlight of the meal were the marshmallows in the fire ! They played games and enjoyed the beautiful weather and surrounding forests.
Tonight on the program the juniors will play the “senses games”….

Jan Hendrik, a senior boy attending International Summer Camp Montana for the first time, gave me a letter a few days ago.
In there was a note from his mother, who attended our camp in 1977. She describes the good times she had and how much she hopes her son does too!
Together with the letter was a photo of the opening ceremony of the third session in 1977:
On the left end is Erwin Mathieu, administrator of the camp. The little boy with the stroller is me (Philippe Studer, present Camp Director). In the middle are Erica and Rudy Studer, my parents.
On Saturday 12 of July 2008 our kitchen chef Pascal Rey and his crew treated the whole camp to a truly mexican dinner.
The homemade guacamole, the fajitas, the chicken and especially the chili were all a hit!
The pioneer counselors welcomed their campers with costumes into the dining hall!
Here are some photos of this fun experience:
This past winter I went for the first time to China.
International Summer Camp Montana welcomes boys and girls from all over the world, but at the present time only few chinese families send their children to our camp.
We would like to have more guests from China to expand our international community, and because of this we already have our brochure translated into chinese!
A journalist from the chinese magazine “Bizmode” made me an interview. The subject of the article was the Studer – Mathieu family, the history of the camp and how we plan to develop our business, especially in China.
