Julia Peltz

9th Summer

My name is Julia and this year will be my 9th summer at Chippewa! I am from Glencoe, Illinois and am currently a senior at New Trier High School. Outside of camp, I like to go on walks and hang out with my friends. One thing not a lot of people know about me is I was Ms. Rodeo in 2021!

This summer at camp, I will be teaching waterskiing and sailing! I like teaching these activities because I love to be out on the lake and they have been my favorite since my first summer. My favorite camp meal is paninis and my favorite Cathy’s flavor is Pirate’s Booty. Tan & White is my favorite Evening Program because I love how involved and passionate everyone gets! I love being a Chippy because Chippewa has given me my best friends and it is a place where I can truly be myself. I am most excited for the summer of 2026 because I’ll get to be back with all my friends and campers at the best place ever!
