Facebook, Tours and C.I.T. Info Session

Good day CKM friends-

Campus Kids Minisink is now on facebook!! What does that mean for you? That means you will find out all of the up to date news from the CKM office plus have a place to post your memories, hear from campers and staff that you haven't heard from and see some pictures of camp throughout the year. Maybe if we are all lucky, I can get a picture of Brad at camp this winter making snow angels. Haha that would be awesome!! If you are not yet a fan of the CKM facebook page, be sure to sign up. Also, if you have any pictures from camp please post them. Thanks Ashley for sharing some of your camp pics with us. Gold star for you.

We will be heading up to camp this weekend for tours as well as an information session for our new C.I.T. program. If you have not yet sent your r.s.v.p. for the information session, do so today. You can email Kathryn, kathryn@campuskids.com or Tricia, tricia@campuskids.com. The C.I.T. program is offered to former campers that will be entering the 11th grade in Sept. 2010. Please note: Attending the information session is not a requirement of the application process.

I hope you have all had a great week and have a fabulous weekend! Until my next blog-
Tricia

Office, Fall, Pumpkins and More

Hey Everyone!!

So, this has been a big mailing week for us in the CKMinisink office. Our 1st edition of The Grapevine-Herald went out. Not only does it have a new name but it also has a new format, thank you Kathryn. It came out great! If anyone would like to contribute to the newsletter whether it's articles, stories, interviews, word searches, movie reviews, etc...we would love it! We also sent out a big mailing to our current 10th grade campers. Once you all have a chance to read about the new programs, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Of course summer is my favorite season because of camp however I also have a great love for autumn! I love the colorful leaves falling down, pumpkins on just about every front porch, the chill in the air, pumpkin and apple pies, apple cider oohh and apple cider donuts! This weekend we are going on a family field trip with Sophie's preschool. Bill and I are excited to take Sophie and Liam on a hayride, go apple picking and then lay our blanket out with the other families and enjoy a great afternoon picnic. For those of you that have spent time with Sophie and Liam you will all know that they are going to love this!!!! Then on Sunday I am heading up to camp for a busy day of tours. I am thinking I should pick up some apple cider for everyone to enjoy and maybe some pumpkins to decorate the office!! The lake is going to look even more beautiful than it did last week. The color of autumn is all around camp!

Even though the summer is behind us it doesn't mean that we can't talk about our camp memories every day with our friends... Keep thinking camp! We have some really cool stuff planned for CKM2010 and we have our reunion coming up! Be sure to mark your calendars...Dec. 5th from 10AM-12:30PM. The reunion is for both CKM and CKCT campers and staff. Invitations will be going out next month. Yay I love the camp reunion!!

Until my next blog...
