Alumni Spotlight- February 2015

The February Alumni Spotlight features Beth Gordon. Beth is an awesome Chippy alum who makes her way back to the Northwoods almost every summer. We love seeing her, talking camp with her and hearing about the everlasting love she has for CRC. A huge thanks to Beth for sharing these answers and photos with us!

Which summer was your favorite and why?
1980- Patti Katz and I were co-counselors in A-Frame (not sure how/why Tom let this happen)!! Our cabin was the greatest!

It’s hard to verbalize one memory where I wash’t involved in some level of mischief along with my partners in crime…you know who you are!!

Saddle Club – my favorite start to the day.

Were you a Tan or a White?
GO WHITES!!

How do you keep in touch with your camp friends?
