Summer Matters

Last call for K&E Early Bird 2027

This article is part of the Camps Kenwood & Evergreen (K&E) resource library for parents exploring overnight summer camp in New England.

Hi!

Last week, I was giving a tour.

It was rest hour, right after lunch, kids just hanging around the cabins. Asked one of our campers if he’d explain the daily schedule.

“Sure!” No hesitation.

Kids here love showing off camp. They’re proud of it. This guy, Logan, then proceeded to lead the next 20 minutes of the tour.

So off he went. Walked the visiting boy around and answered every question the parents threw at him, honestly better than I could have. Amazing to watch.

Then the activities call played. He stops mid-sentence, yells, “I have to go to cooking!!!” Sprints off.

If that doesn’t sum up a kid at camp, I don’t know what does.

All in on showing a new family everything he loves about this place. All in on not missing a second of cooking. Fully there for both, and gone the instant the bugle calls.

That’s the part you can’t put in a brochure. Kids this into where they are.

One quick note before the weekend gets away from us. Today is the last day for early bird registration for Summer 2027, and registering in the window gets you three things.

  1. This year’s rate for next summer. Register by tonight and you pay 2026 tuition for Summer 2027. The best rate we’ll have all year.
  2. The Year of K&E Gear. Twelve K&E gear-drops over the coming year, one a month. Register now and your camper’s in for all of them, with the September drop up next.
  3. Payment, simplified. Pay in full ($800 off half summer, $1,200 off full summer, applied automatically) or put $4,000 down and split the rest into 10 monthly payments, September through June. E-check and ACH are free; credit cards carry 3%.

All of it fully refundable through January 1. Moving now costs you two minutes and nothing else.

​Register for Summer 2027​

You got this,

Jack

Same school of thought

Summer Matters Inspiring confident, kind kids & forever friendships Sometimes I wonder if we’re getting this right. I mean, not really, I know we’re getting it right. But it’s not like there’s a report card for camps, or a panel of camp judges showing up in August to score how we did overall. We put a lot of thought into how summer is structured. What the days look like, what kids leave with, whether all of it adds up. And then a big part of the job is trusting it’s the best way to run…

3 minutes. 3 hours. 3 days.

Summer Matters Inspiring confident, kind kids & forever friendships 3 minutes. 3 hours. 3 days. 3 weeks. 3 months. 3 years. 3 decades. Playing a little fast and loose with timelines, but that seems pretty close to what the independence milestones look like for a kid growing up. A camp friend passed these timelines on to me, and I thought they tracked. Let’s break them down. 3 minutes is the first time you feel comfortable leaving your kid out of your sight (maybe in a crib, or a playpen…

Mo money, mo meetings

Summer Matters Inspiring confident, kind kids & forever friendships I’m going to say three things, all true, and that seem completely disconnected. Most people hate going to meetings (me included). We go to a lot more of them than we think Being good at meetings is good for life (mostly) There’s a new study from Harvard about meetings and money. Researchers tracked how much time people spend in meetings and how that impacted their income. The Guy Defending Meetings The study comes from David…
