Tan Van, Tan Van

The memories of tan van I am sure bring tears to many eyes and spark
memories of your carefree years at Coppercreek. It is for this reason
that this post appear here first on our alumni group, and and was added to our blog
and website. Old Tanny has had a long and distinguished place here at
Coppercreek. From the sound of the gorillas on the roof while towing
the boat to the lake to "tan van, tan van" and countless early morning
trips to the Quincy pool for lifeguard training. As much as it
saddens us to do so, the time has come let tanny move on and bless
someone else's life for the rest of his years. Ebay seemed far to
cold a venue so I will hold the auction here and on our alumni group. I
would like to start the bidding at $500 and ask that you only bid if
you are serious about owning a piece of Coppercreek history. The
auction will close on Sept. 15th at lets say 10 PM. Please post all
bids as comments to this post (and include how I can reach you). I will update to this page with
any bids I recieve via email.
For anyone who can't remember:

1982 Dodge 15 passenger van
318 ci V-8
AM/FM stereo cassette (you just have to get the tape out thats been in
it since '93)
Power steering


At the time of this post, Tanny is in good running condition. There
is a small brake issue, no leakage, probably vacuum related. I will
not attempt to describe the interior condition as I could not possibly
do it justice. As you might expect we have many years of maintenance
records available to the high bidder. Any questions can be posted
here, sent to my gmail address, or to craig@coppercreek.com.


Happy bidding. Tell your friends

Fourth Session Continues

Friday August 3, 2007

Today is another fun-filled, exciting day in the world of Coppercreek camp. The day began with a variety of activities, including skateboarding on the new skate ramp for the first time ever!!! In the meantime, adventurous campers challenged themselves by hiding and seeking, kicking balls, slinging shots, to name just a few. The night life of Coppercreek will light up tonight, however, when the jungle-safari themed dance party will be held on the deck!!! Campers will boogie the night away, dressed in exotic jungle attire. This day concludes the first week of the final two-week session of the summer.

Saturday August 4, 2007

No rest for the weary! After partying our brains out last night, we find little time to rest, as the day is filled with the usual exertions and excitement of the camp’s many activities. In the air is a palpable hue of anticipation as campers and staff alike gear up and plan devious stratagems for the session’s biggest event; a massive camp-wide game of CAPTURE THE FLAG. Brother is pit against brother, and sister against sister, as campers choose sides and wage war for honor, love, wealth, and most of all; bragging rights! Even those few staff given the night off cannot resist the sheer grandiosity of this epic contest and often find themselves joining the festivities. Tonight will be a night to remember, as one team will emerge triumphant, and the other already scheming revenge for next time.
