October Happenings

Hello everyone in CK land,

Happy fall to all! There are so many great things to do this time of the year. Remember the really cold weather is not too far away, so we should enjoy as much of the outdoors as possible. Maybe you can find some time to go on a hayride or go pumpkin picking. Some places have haunted hayrides if you like that type of scare. There are some farms that have amazing corn mazes. Have you ever tried one of them? They can be really wild and not as easy as you might think. Of course the fall has lots of sporting events happening. There are lots of games happening all over the area. Of course the fall is a great time to go for a hike, ride a bike, go fishing or head out to your local park to throw a football around. You don't have to be a nature lover to enjoy all the beautiful fall colors. It really is one of the treats that we get to enjoy in the northeast. (Florida does have nice palm trees to stare at)

We were at camp this weekend doing tours. We always tell you how beautiful camp gets this time of the year. It really does and walking around the lake is breathtaking. There has been some neat things done at camp over the last few weeks. The beam gym has been painted and it is now a blueish gray color. The maintenance staff has also done a lot of tree trimming so the villages look great. When we do tours we always decorate a cabin to show how it is used during the summer. This year we picked cabin two in Kalagesi. It is a fun village to show and it is a nice place to chat before heading to Lookout Point. Many times during the tours people will comment about how nice the village is arranged. Well we know how the village setting becomes part of your summer experience. Do you think there are any campers that have lived in every village? Probably not. Maybe there are some staff members that have accomplished this rare feat.
