Our 2025 Grauer Summer Camps began on July 7, with Tricia Valeski leading the Culinary Camp in the Grauer Teaching Kitchen. Tricia described the first few days of the camp:
"On Monday, we made delicious homemade pizza and ice cream. On Tuesday, we made homemade pasta with marinara and pesto sauces. We're looking forward to cooking more delicious dishes during the rest of the week. On Wednesday, we received a tour of the Grauer Garden from Stephanie Murphy, and harvested some vegetables to use in the kitchen. The students in our camp have been so enthusiastic and positive, which makes it fun for all of us!"

It begins in an attic full of old boxes we're clearing out, but it ends with a deceptive question every one of us is going to have to answer: What deserves to survive us?
