No words can describe the opening here at camp. After weeks of intense rain and cold temperatures the weather finally changed and went our way. I have been experiencing opening days here at CRH since 1973 as a camper, staff member, parent, and owner for the last 22 summers. It never ceases to amaze me how awesome it is to watch the returning campers leap into each other\u2019s arms. Seeing the new camper\u2019s look of anxiety and hopefulness all mixed together makes all the off-season work incredibly worthwhile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can say with certainty that at dinner tonight the camp was one. We turned into 18 groups acting like families in every way. The kids in the dining hall were laughing and talking their way through the meal. They were walking around camp smiling and chatting – all the while singing to music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am so proud of our staff who work so hard to make sure every camper is happy and safe. Our general staff members – those who spend the entire day with your kids – are 97% former campers. They are our secret sauce in every way. Their love and devotion to camp is only matched by their ability to make everything fun and silly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will check in every night this summer with our nightly letter home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you all again for trusting me while taking this journey. My goal for every camper is to feel safe and protected here at CRH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only thing we can\u2019t control is the weather \u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love,
Woody<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
