TP Reunion “Rap”
The whole gang!
As you can see, we had a FABULOUS turn out for the annual Chicago reunion the weekend before Thanksgiving! In a series of blogs in the upcoming weeks, we will give you an update about the TP boys who joined us for the afternoon to watch the 2014 camp video, flip through the new scrapbook, relive camp memories, and of course, to eat yummy treats. Jake St was the winner of the “how many more days until camp?” contest (he answered correctly that it was 216 on the nose that day)!
Christian, James, Andrew, Luke G, Jack T
The 2015 CIT’s had their first “duty” at the reunion; they helped us interview everyone to find out 1) what is the favorite thing about school this year, 2) what activities campers do when they are not in school, 3) any fun trips taken or planned, and 4) what each camper is looking forward to next summer.
