January News from Coppercreek!

Happy New Year! We hope your holidays were spent with friends and family appreciating your blessings! We had a wonderful holiday season. After celebrating Christmas here at camp, Sutter and Ilana traveled with me to Truckee to spend the vacation working as ticket sellers at Northstar. It was fantastic. They got to live the "ski bum" life, and I had wonderful employees who I knew would be at work on time (since they stayed with me!). We all celebrated New Year's Eve on the mountain! Ryleigh, Craig, Lornie and Sutter skied. Taylor (a friend of Sutter & Ilana's) and Ilana snowboarded, Kenna and I hung out on the deck people watching and then we all watched the fireworks together at Northstar. I had the pleasure of bumping into Ryan Kirk on the mountain! It was great to see you, Ryan. I am really surprised we didn't see more of our campers. Please look me, Sutter or Ilana up if you ski Northstar. We would love to say hello.

Other happenings at Coppercreek:

Alumni Group

Our alumni group is growing by the day. We have almost 200 alumni registered so far. It has been such a pleasure for all of us to re-connect with so many of Coppercreek's former campers and staff. If you haven't had a chance to register yet, please visit www.coppercreek.com. We would love to get back in touch!

The Coppercreek Memorial Fund

We have recently established the Coppercreek Memorial Fund, a scholarship fund to give local children a chance to attend camp. For years, we have reached out to needy children in our community at our own cost. We would like to continue and grow the scholarship fund and are looking for help. If you or anyone you know might be interested, please give us a call or visit our website http://www.coppercreek.com/scholarship-donations.asp for more information.

Reunion Slide Shows

Lauren is putting together some Reunion Slide Shows. Her first one is scheduled for February 8th in the Los Angeles area. We are also looking for people who would like to host a slide show in Phoenix, Las Vegas, the Bay Area, and any other location, really! Please shoot Lornie an e-mail for more information. lornie@coppercreek.com!

So, there is the exciting news for now.
