It’s Cool To Be Kind
The highlight of our day was our night as we restarted a new tradition with Awards at the Amphitheater. After being here for one week, we have some amazing campers that have shined bright and it’s their turn to be recognized for being outstanding. We wanted to bring the entire camp together for this new Chenny tradition as we honor our Campers of the Week and our Kind Campers. The atmosphere was electric with sing-a-longs and dance parties galore even before the night started. To be named Camper of the Week is an honor that anyone who receives this award should feel deep pride from their toes to their nose. As every name was called, you can hear the chants and cheers from bunk mates and counselors, celebrating their friends who received this amazing honor. Campers of the week are selected by their Division Heads who look for a well rounded, helpful, kind, positive, inclusive camper who participates and inspires those around them. A huge congratulations to our Week 1 Campers of the Week.

To be a Kind Camper is to be selfless and thoughtful, to have empathy and compassion for those around you. It is to be kind to others with no anticipation of anything in return. At Chenny, our Kind Campers are nominated, not by staff but by their peers. That makes this award so incredibly special as being nominated means they made their friends feel good and there is just no better compliment than that. It costs nothing to be kind and the payback is immense. We know you at home who find their children’s name, in the list below will feel a sense of pride and you should. You have kind children and our community is so lucky have them as they are making a difference spreading kindness all throughout camp. Congratulations to all our Kind kids!!
