Send Kids to Camp

Dear Camp Kenwood & Evergreen Community,
​
Greetings from the shores of Eagle Pond! It was so wonderful seeing so many of you at Visiting Day last week! Camp is in full, joyful swing, and you can see the excitement on all of our campers’ faces. We definitely aren’t ready to send them home just yet!

Today is the day! We are so excited to host the 3rd Annual Mickey’s Kids 5K Run this morning. This event is all about celebrating our camp’s spirit of generosity and inclusion, helping ensure that the magic of Kenwood & Evergreen remains open to every child.

To wrap up the race, all of our Kenwood and Evergreen campers and counselors will be diving straight into our annual Color Run! While we’d love to have everyone here with us on campus, you can cheer your camper on live from anywhere in the world.

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…
