Session 2 began yesterday, and our 24 campers are having a blast as they prepare to leave on their treks on Sunday!  We'll post a longer update on Sunday, but for now, be sure to check our Facebook page for short updates.  Shabbat Shalom!

It's hard to believe that our very first session of Adamah Adventures will soon be over. They say that in camp time, a day feels like a week, a week feels like a month, a month feels like a year, and the summer goes by in a snap.  If I didn't believe that before, I certainly do now.  Before the summer passes us by, I want to share just a few highlights of the past three weeks.

One month from today, we will welcome our first teens to Adamah Adventures!  After two years of planning and preparation, we are so excited for our inaugural summer.  We thought we'd share a glimpse into our office.  For the past month, the UPS and Fedex men have become very familiar with our office, as our shelves have started to overflow with gear.  Read more for pictures!

Over the past few weeks, registration has really picked up!  We're very excited to welcome our first dozen campers to the Adamah Adventures family, and look forward to welcoming many more in the months to come.  We'll be traveling extensively around the South and East Coast over the next two months, and hope you'll be able to come meet us!

We'll be visiting Alpharetta, Manhattan, Atlanta, Duluth, Nashville, Miami, Boca Raton, Marietta, Raleigh, Birmingham, Ormond Beach, Johns Creek, and Sandy Springs.  For a complete schedule, read more!

The weather has started to change.  It's getting cooler, the days are getting shorter, and soon we'll switch our thermostats from "cool" to "heat."  For camp directors, that means it's time to start talking about next summer!

It's been a busy month for Bobbee and me!  We had an amazing honeymoon adventure in Thailand and Cambodia, and returned to the office August 17th.  Our marketing team had continued working while we are gone, and we've been churning out marketing materials left and right...

Bobbee and I are back on the west coast, as our crazy summer travel continues, and we have two exciting new names to announce! First (and definitely most importantly!), our own new names - Mr. Adam & Mrs. Bobbee Griff!! That's right, we finally tied the knot. Last Sunday, on a beautiful evening in Golden, Colorado, Bobbee and I were married. It was so wonderful to celebrate with our friends and family from all over the country.

Unfortunately, I have not had a chance to upload pictures from our three days in Moab, but I promise they'll come soon!

Over the weekend, Bobbee and I got a good taste of Utah's rivers. Friday we hiked "The Narrows," a very popular hike up the Virgin River in Zion Canyon. I have to admit, we were a bit hesitant to jump into a COLD river, but the hike turned out to be amazing. Hiking up a river is a challenging experience - because you have to concentrate on every step, you never quite get into a rhythm. Nonetheless, the scenary was incredible!

Bobbee and I flew to Salt Lake City on Tuesday, and after buying some maps at REI, headed south. After spending the night in Cedar City, we continued to Zion National Park. Words can't describe the beauty of this place. (It's a good thing we have a camera!) We did a day hike yesterday, and got caught in a bit of a thunderstorm. This morning, we met our guide, Greg, from Zion Rock and Mountain Guides, for an amazing morning of canyoneering.
