My name is Samantha but people at camp call me Sam. This year will be my 10th summer at Chippewa! I am from Chicago, IL and am currently a senior at Francis W. Parker. Outside of camp, I like to hang out with my friends, play for my school’s field hockey and softball teams, and write for my school’s newspaper. One thing not a lot of people know about me is I love pickles.
This summer at camp, I will be teaching sailing. I like teaching this activity because a lot of my best memories from camp occurred when my friends and I were sailing Dam Lake. I will also be teaching fishing which is a hobby I took up last summer at camp! My favorite camp meal is chicken fingers and my favorite Cathy’s flavor is Raspberry Sorbet. Tan & White is my favorite Evening Program because I love the variety of games and people you get to work with. I love being a Chippy because the Chippewa community truly accepts me for me. I am most excited for the summer of 2023 because it is another opportunity to smile, laugh, and make memories with my age group and campers.
