The Camp Jabberwocky community turned out in force Tuesday afternoon to honor one of the camp’s most stalwart and best-loved volunteers, Jack Knower, who died at 71 last October.

Camp Jabberwocky campers were greeted on Monday morning at the Steamship terminal by camp counselors wearing feather boas and cymbal tambourines.

Camp Jabberwocky has a new bus, named after the late Jack Knower, that will allow more campers to ride in the iconic red jitney.

As the first Camp Jabberwocky campers arrived on-Island Sunday morning, a camper leaned over the ferry railing and pumped his fists in the air. “Are you ready?” Seth called out from high above on the boat.

Camp Jabberwocky’s summer sessions begin this Sunday, with campers arriving in Vineyard Haven at 11:30 a.m. for the start of the eight-week season.

Camp Jabberwocky’s new executive director, Hilary Dreyer, is a homegrown Islander known for her work with the Martha’s Vineyard Film Festival and, more recently, the Martha’s Vineyard Community Foundation.
