In his seventh-week Tree Talk, Chase Carmody speaks to the boys and counsellors about what it means to buy in and how that commitment can make all the difference in a person’s life. “Buy-in,” Chase says, “is what remains when the excitement wears off.

Townley Chisholm reflects on how the limited time we have at camp, and in life, creates joy, meaning, and responsibility to be kind to one another.

Third-year counsellor Teddy Marquet reflects on “You’ll Never Walk Alone” by Gerry and the Pacemakers—Liverpool FC’s anthem—and how its message echoes his experiences of support and community at Pasquaney.
