A grace is often defined as a short prayer or thankful phrase said before or after eating a meal. A meal at Camp Fuller would not seem right without first taking a few minutes to recite a four-line blessing before sitting down in the Dining Hall for some delicious camp food. Little is actually known about the origins of our three graces. We do know that they are not unique to Fuller and are recited throughout the country at other summer camps and gatherings.

Our thanks to Dan Swain and Chris Hyer for their work on the Camp Fuller Virtual Council Fire which was produced and broadcast virtually on August 22, 2020. “Sugar Mountain” was recorded at camp for this special council fire by Max Shakun, Tom McDonald, Alex Borts, Scott Rasmussen and Maddy Wood. Thanks to this special group of Fuller alumni who brought this classic back into our hearts during the pandemic. It will always remind us of our summers at camp.
