<\/p>\nDear CLC Family,<\/p>\n
The buses just rolled out with all the campers and counselors headed back to the \u201creal\u201d world. As the summer of 2018 just officially ended, it\u2019s amazing to already hear the Blue Team sharing memories from the summer, and I imagine that all the campers and counselors are on the buses doing the same. It\u2019s truly heartwarming to hear how one great story leads to another which leads to another as great memories keep coming back to all of us.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
At CLC, we always say, \u201cIt\u2019s not the minutes, it\u2019s the moments.\u201d This is never more evident than at Closing Campfire as every bunk shares their Bunk Memories with the rest of camp. With all of the great, camp-wide traditions we have at CLC, one might expect many of the Bunk Memories to be the same from bunk to bunk\u2026but they never are\u2026<\/p>\n
G8 Talent Show, Counselor Makeovers, Ross\u2019s Bedtime Stories, Bunk Ball, Compliment Wall,<\/em> These are just a few of literally hundreds shared at Closing Campfire and thousands of others that don\u2019t make their list because we limit it to ten. If you\u2019re thinking you need a CLC Decoder Ring in order to understand them, you\u2019re not the only one! But that\u2019s part of what makes our summers at Chestnut Lake so special\u2026unique moments shared with friends that we\u2019ll never forget\u2026friends that we would never have had in our lives had we not spent our summer together at CLC.<\/p>\n While Chestnut Lake is a very special place for us all, let\u2019s take the opportunity when we go home to bring a little CLC to the rest of the world. We probably don\u2019t have beads at home and definitely don\u2019t have line-up, but why not find a reason to compliment someone new every day. We won\u2019t have campfires every Friday night and don\u2019t have Community Service patches at home, but why not write someone a note to let them know how they\u2019ve made a difference in your life. And while we\u2019re all excited to see our friends at school and work when we get home, why not go out of our way to introduce ourselves to someone new\u2026after all, who knows better than us how special new friends can become.<\/p>\n \u2018Til 2019!
