Living The Moment

The brand-new Chenny Speedway has quickly become one of camp’s most exciting additions—bringing nonstop fun and high-octane joy to our campers. With remote control cars zipping around a track that’s as impressive as it is imaginative, it’s a place where pure childhood wonder comes to life. Today, I watched a group of Junior boys completely immersed in the action—racing their RC cars, launching them off jumps, and weaving around obstacles, all while bursting into uncontrollable laughter. From my spot over by the new Slip N Slide, I could hear their joy echoing from 50 feet away. They weren’t just racing cars—they were living the moment.

There’s something magical about watching kids unplug, unwind, and just play. No competition, no structure, no score—just freedom and fun. Some of the boys were running alongside their cars, others cheering each other on as they pulled off epic stunts, completely lost in their imaginations. It was racing heaven. And in that moment, the world felt perfect. These are the moments we hold onto—the ones that don’t happen on a field or court but in those in-between spaces where kids are simply being kids. No pressure, no judgment, just joy. Watching it unfold is a reminder of what makes camp so special: creating space for carefree, unforgettable moments of laughter, friendship, and pure fun.

Tonight our upper soccer field was transformed into a scene straight out of Friday Night Lights as we hosted the highly anticipated Chenny Bowl—a thrilling showdown between between boy side as our GCs and CITs took the field with confidence . The Hill was packed, the lights were shining bright, and the energy was electric from the opening kickoff.

From the first snap, it was clear this would be a battle to remember. Both disvions came to play, showcasing incredible heart, hustle, and skill. The lead changed hands multiple times, keeping everyone on the edge of their seats. The intensity on the field was matched only by the enthusiasm from the sidelines as campers and staff cheered loudly for their team and of course dance to crazy frog, fireball and Jai ho.
