It has been only 5 days since we’ve arrived here at Chenny and it feels like we have always been here. There is a comfort, a familiarity, a sense of home and it’s only been 5 days. This summer has started out with so much positivity, so much incredible energy, tons of kindness and an overall vibe of complete happiness. You can feel it and it is real is as real is. When you see kids skipping to breakfast, holding hands, feeling totally comfortable sitting on the shoulders of their counselors, laying in laps of their friends at line up, getting form one activity the next from piggy back rides, you know the feeling is just pure comfort and security. And we all just got here only 5 days ago. It happens quick and it lasts all summer long. These connections have happened and the magic of this place is no illusion – Everyone is feeling the Chenny love!!!
Our athletes gave it all they got today on our courts and fields. They played hard, they played fair and we couldn’t be more proud of our kids today.

We honored our campers of the week tonight and and there is nothing like seeing their faces when their names are called. Every week, the Group Leaders choose one or two campera from their division (based on division size) to honor and highlight. To receive this honor is saying that these campers have great character, are good friends, are helpful, have positive attitudes and are just great kids all -around. It is an incredible honor to be named Camper of the Week. A huge congrats to our amazing campers of the week on this first week of camp.

Kindness runs supreme here at Chenny and it was an honor to announce our first KIND CAMPERS of Summer 2024. They deserve the recognition as these campers have spread kindness all throughout camp and seeing their genuine happy faces when we called their names tonight was priceless. Congratulations to these awesome kind kids who are making an impact with how they treat others and how they too value being kind. And we couldn’t just stop at campers because our counselors have also brought the kindness. Being kind costs absolutely nothing and the payoff is absolutely huge.
