Camp Directors Model for Beau Ties’

Behind the Scenes of Beau Ties’ Spring Catalog Photo Shoot

When Beau Ties Ltd of Vermont contacted us here at Keewaydin to see if our Camp Directors would model for their Spring 2014 catalog, we were all in. But, when the first photo shoot had to be canceled on March 13 due to 20 inches of snow, it seemed like Spring might just never come. After clearing the road to the Fraser Dining Hall on Songadeewin’s campus, the shoot was rescheduled for March 18. These photos take you behind the scenes of that cold day in March, where our fearless leaders were put in the spot light. Look for Beau Ties’ upcoming catalog to see the final product!
