As each CLC summer comes to an end, campers say their goodbyes to staff and friends and immediately start looking forward to the next time we’ll be together as a camp family: our winter reunions!
December not only marks the beginning of the Holidays, but it also means the Chestnut Lake Camp reunions are just around the corner! We recently hosted our winter reunions in New Jersey and all of our Division Leaders and Head Counselors flew in from all across the country just to spend the special weekend with their campers!
The weekend started off on Saturday as we spent the afternoon at The Fun Plex with our campers currently in 7th-11th grades. Everybody had a great time hanging out together, riding go-carts and playing games. As much fun as the games were, the highlight was reliving the summer of 2014 as we watched the 2014 Video Yearbook together.
On Sunday, the CLC staff spent the morning bowling with our campers currently in 1st – 6th grades. The reunion started off with warm welcomes from Debbi and Paul followed by some activities and games led by the Division Leaders. It’s always great seeing how excited our returning campers are to welcome new campers into the CLC Family. After bowling and pizza, the campers came together for a raffle. Campers won prizes such as an ice cream party for their bunk, golf cart ride by Paul and a pizza party for the entire bunk in the brand new Canteen! Being able to spend time with our Chestnut Lake family makes us look forward to Opening Campfire 2015 even more…only 188 more days!
After the Holidays, we will be hosting two more reunions in Maryland and Florida. To get more information on these events, please click on the invitations below.
We will continue sharing highlights of the 2015 summer with you via The Tribal Times, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We wish you and your family Happy Holidays and a Happy and Healthy New Year!
