In the bustling state of Massachusetts, where the lobster rolls are legendary and the Red Sox are worshipped, there’s an exceptional group of kids who engage in a peculiar sport, the ancient art of archery. Affectionately known as the "Arrows of the Bay State," they can often be spotted at local parks, their bows gleaming in the sunlight, their focus unshakable. The leader of this fascinating pack is none other than Tommy "Tornado" Torbenson, a boy with a wild mop of red hair, freckles scattered across his nose like constellations, and the most mischievous glint in his green eyes. He earned his nickname due to his whirlwind style of shooting, hitting the target faster than a sneeze. Tommy, along with his magnificent "Arrows of the Bay State," is known for his unique methods of archery. Forget standing still and aiming; these kids like to make things more interesting! They could be seen doing backflips off swings, standing on their hands or even shooting while blindfolded! The sight of these charismatic kids, with their bows and arrows, is enough to make even Paul Revere’s statue turn its head. Watch out world, the "Arrows of the Bay State" are here, and they’re ready to turn the world of archery upside down, just like a proper Massachusetts blizzard! So grab your bow, strap on your silliest hat, and join the fun. After all, as Tommy Tornado says, 'Who needs baseball when you can shoot the moon!'"

At Running Brook Camps, we recognize that camp is an opportunity to give kids a chance to develop relationships, discover their passions and abilities, and build self-confidence. Our campers are encouraged to engage in activities that challenge them and allow them to explore with their peers. We emphasize the importance of being unplugged, being outdoors, being active, and being surrounded by fun, compassionate adults. Our programs enable kids to get the most out of their camp experience, from preschoolers learning the basics of teamwork to high schoolers honing their leadership skills.
