Lower Camp boarded the buses this afternoon and and headed out for an awesome night at the ballpark. It was a perfect night watching baseball, eating hotdogs and popcorn and sitting in the stands doing the wave with your best camp friends. There is something pretty special about summer nights at the ballpark. It defines summertime and we had a ball tonight. It started out incredible as Evie Glickman and Austin Bernstein got to throw out the first pitch tonight. The sea of Gold and Red shirts were cheering in support of our 2 campers who represented Chenny on the mound. There was lot sod laughs tonight and a great time had by all. Another perfect summer night.

Our Seniors, Supers and CIT’s had camp all to themselves tonight as they ran the Chenny Color Mudder. These campers couldn’t have had a better time running a challenge course that included getting soaked in the slip and slide, running in the mud pit challenge course, being doused with colored powder and then jumping into the lake. They go town and dirty and had a ball. After their evening of mud and mess it was off to the Lodge for a pizza party followed by movie night. Our Navajo campers are having the summer of their lives and we couldn’t be happier for what an incredible experience they are having.

The GC’s have arrived in Las Vegas and are truly speechless from the adventures they are experiencing. It is a trip that keeps on getting better and better with every day. To be able to share this experience with their camp family is undeniably an experience they are loving. We have some very happy campers and that makes us smile from the inside out.

Chenny out.
