I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career

Bruce stopped by our cabin in the woods at Camp Paradise and found it cleaned up and repaired thanks to the hearty and dedicated men and women at the Department of Public Services. Check out the grandeur of the Edie Estes Lodge and surrounding wilderness...






We cannot wait to bring so many active and passive recreational opportunities back to this area in 2016. We know that our staff are working on making this summer the best ever at good, old Camp Paradise. Mosquitoes, beware!

I'm Gonna Get You a Nice Fruit Basket, I'm Gonna Miss Him...

It's really happening, Harry. The humongous windows are really being installed in the Carriage House Guild Room right now as we blog! Here's photographic proof...






It's amazing, right? We cannot wait to experience the glory of the Atlantic Ocean as it meets the shores of Bev-er-lee right from the comfort of our very own Carriage House. We'll keep you posted on this project, as it develops...

In other news, the winter/spring brochure has been published and is available in Beverly households and online at www.bevrec.com. In it you'll find all the summer camp info you can handle, as well as classes that will teach you how to make terrariums (terraria?), ballroom dance, yoga journey through the chakras and much more. Got to read it to believe it, folks.

"We must resolve to live as nobly and justly as possible..."

1,2,3... 2015!

We're trying to pretend its warm out (its going to be in the single digits pretty soon), and so are doing some spring cleaning. Enjoy all of the random pictures and videos from our vault...


These brave rangers moved the old, gross couch and the rizzograph machine out of the Spirit Whisper room to make way for the new, sanitary recovery couch


By some miracle or twist of fate, Michael Schroeder (beloved camper) and Rich Slate (former Head Ranger) delivered our delicious orientation day meal from Super Sub in June, 2014


Bruce won "Most Likely to Dance Here Again" at the Senior Center's Dancing with our Stars event


Ye Olde Wooden Structure was turned into rubble and replaced with something even more awesome


Stella had an 8th birthday party at the office!


We FINALLY tried the bacon maple donuts from Half Baked and can confirm that they are worth the trip and the extra calories!
