Sounds

Much of the experience of Pinewoods is about sound. Walking around Camp, you notice both the human sounds – dance classes in session, folks jamming on a cabin porch, a group singing in the distance – as well as the sounds of Pinewoods’ natural environment. We invite you to sample some of the varied sounds of Pinewoods in the playlist below.
