Back to the Future

Happy Monday! We are back full time to the camp office as most of you are back to school and work. So back to the desk and thus begins the planning for the future, CKM 2011. We will rock it. (Sorry for that reference but we watched the VMA last night--just a thought, but what was Lady Gaga wearing? Do you think that Lady Gaga likes to play Ga-ga? Let's get her to camp to try it. Plus she needs to meet Simon!)

So the preparation for next summer is in full swing. This Sunday will be our first fall tour day. We love showing new families around camp. Once the fall fully arrives the colors on the trees are absolutely amazing. The lake is still warm enough for a few more zips down the aqua zip line. Maybe Luke can fly back from the UK to set it up for us. (He won't mind)

So the next few weeks are busy ones in the CK office. Although it feels like we just ended camp yesterday, it is time to start thinking about dance themes, bunk group names, special events, and new crazy events for the apache relay. During the year we will send you some fun surveys to get your input. We love hearing your feedback so don't be shy.

This past weekend we met someone who was not familiar with the concept of summer camp. We spent an hour sharing stories from the summer. It felt great to relive so many amazing memories. We directed this person to our website to see some of the zany photos from 2010. I know that pictures and words will not capture all the magic of camp, but we think he will get the idea. Speaking of photos, if you have any camp pictures that you want to share---please send them along. We love adding camper and staff pictures to the CK site.

So we are all back to school and back to work. Baseball season is winding down as the Yankees head towards the playoffs again. (Sorry Mets and Red Sox fans) Football season has just started and the Giants and the Patriots had good week one wins. Hopefully, the Jets will win their game on Monday night. (I wonder if any of our campers and staff will be there)

So have a great week and we will chat with you soon.

PS. If you have not seen the movie "Back to the Future", you have to put that on your must see list. Download it today or move it up on your netflix priority list. It was made more than 25 years ago and the Flux Capacator still works!
