Amesbury: Jack Kulik, 12, uses a clam shell to scrape away the inside of a canoe--after the inside had been burned out--that he and others at the summer program at Camp Kent in Amesbury have been making. The pine tree was downed by last December's ice storm, and it was hoped to get the canoe afloat this year, but will have to wait until next year as Thursday is the last day.
