President’s Message – January 2015

Happy New Year! The beginning of the year brings with it the inherent feeling of a fresh start. It’s both retrospective and hopeful, all in one! As we reflect on our accomplishments from last year, it is important to celebrate and gain momentum from the successes of last year to inspire us for the year ahead.

Camp K is accredited by the American Camping Association (ACA).  Last week, I attended the ACA Leadership Summit in Phoenix.  We were reminded of the ACA’s vision: Enriching Lives – Changing the World. The ACA theme for this year is:  Imagine, Inspire, Impact. The alliteration reminds us of how important the “I” is when it comes to camp. We talk about the importance of community and the ability to come together as a group and make things happen. But the truth is, without the talents and drive of each individual involved, camp wouldn’t be the life-changing experience that it is.

We are looking forward to a successful 2015 Summer Camp, and we are already working diligently to plan for this summer. The success of our Summer Camp relies on the support of our community in making our 2015 Send-A-Kid-To-Camp Gala a success. We provide many scholarships through-out the summer and every single camper receives financial support in order to attend camp. Please mark your calendars for our Gala which will be held on May 1st.  More information is available at:  www.campk.org/special-events.

I look forward to seeing you there!
