MAIN CAMP SCOOP...
What a summer!   We just closed another terrific summer.  I understand that I sound a bit less than credible when I say it was better than last summer, but it was!  Thanks to you and all and thanks to God!  It was a hard-to-believe summer!

Family Camp was full and FUN and we are getting sign-ups for both camp and family camp for next year as usual!

JUNE CAMP ENDS SO WELL!
What a great session.  Where do we get these awesome staff!

LOOK - Here comes SUMMER!
The summer is bound to be great!  So many campers are returning and the staff is so outstanding!  The girls and boys have so many old timers and a hand full of new counselors with great gifts and other treasures to share.  I am truly pleased and excited.  Can't wait to have the old gang together again!

        The mail still brings plenty of old campers signing up.  We are so grateful to have so many returning campers and a gracious number of new campers!  That is great.  Thanks so much and keep spreading the good word.  We love what happens at camp...  By the way, FAMILY CAMP is full.

       Staff clinics and workshops have started with a climbing class last weekend and tomorrow ACA Whitewater Instructor's clinic begins.  We'll be providing much more training in rock climbing, mountain biking, paddling, wilderness, arts, horseback riding, wilderness first-aid, epinephrine administration, CPR, general camp orientation, caving and more.  We have been busy and will be for a long time to come!

        I want to remind, all you staff out there, there are some great opportunities after camp that are really great.  We will have the Envoy Institute camp and Family camp.  Both of these are great events and great to work.

        Finally, it is not too late to join us for this summer.  The applications are at  www.TwoFunCamps.com.  Bring a friend.  We are looking forward to seeing you at camp!

We have a new van in the fleet...  It's name is Glenda.

VIDEO SCRAPBOOK
The new video is in the duplication process!!!!  It is so good.  It will be going into the mail soon.  if you have a new addres (or a school address) let us know and we will send it to where you want it to go.  Before you watch it, you might take a look at the Old Spice commercial on youtube... the one titled "The man your man could smell like."  It's funny.

PICTURES:  The pictures from the summer are online at www.dotphoto.com.  You can see them by logging in with: Username: kahdalea and for the password: email or call the office.   June Camp at Kahdalea pictures are missing and we are working on getting the copies from the girls picture counselor.  We will drop you an email when we get them.

Please keep spreading the good word about camp!

Internet Photo Policy
    We have had internet photos during camp in the past and found that the staff we hired to add photos to the Internet would continually end up involved in camper support.  Here, we naturally put all of our eggs into the camper basket.  We have found trying to run an internet photo service a distraction or a pressure that we feel draws us from the mission.  It requires lots of time and oversight. 
    We have great staff and we work to answer all of the campers needs.  When we have extra staff, we focus on the campers.  It is our mission; it is our calling.  When we do superb work with the campers, we feel marketing will take care of its self.  We will put any photos we have on the net after camp or during camp if we get the opportunity.  Thanks.
