Holiday Shopping Guide - Lower Camp
We're back with more ideas for the holidays. This time, it's down to Lower Camp we go. Many of these campers are in their first or second summer at Chippewa, so here are some fun things to get ready for summer 2012!
Nite Ize Bug Light - Not a whole lot to say here, except that this is a fun little light to have hanging around your area in the cabin. Since we don't have bugs in our cabins, this seems like a reasonable replacement. About $13 for cool factor.
Why Not Games - Knots aren't just for sailors or fishermen, they're for aspiring canoe trippers as well. This is a great kit to get a head start on knots. Great illustrated cards to help keep everyone busy for a while as they hone their skills. Just $5!
Plastic Fencing Training Set - Hey campers, you can thank me later for this! Yes, I may be the fencing master at camp and yes, I may be sympathetic to all things fencing, but these are pretty slick. What swashbuckling camper wouldn't want this! While it is very cool looking, it is also very practical if you have an aspiring fencer. In reading the reviews, you will see that this set helps develop proper skills in the sport of fencing, unlike a random nerf set of foam swords! I'm a fan. And if you are real enthusiastic, opt for the wireless scoring option that will make it even cooler and more accurate for true fencers. Mask and foil set (two color choices) starts at $68 and is on sale!
Don't forget to read last year's suggestions for more great ideas, like the Eyeclops!

Photo album and Smugmug updated with lost photos.
While putting together this years photo album I happened across some photos that did not make into smugmug. Needless to say I added them immediately. I also couldn't help but notice just how many great photos we have from 2011! It was a special summer and we have a lot of pictures that capture that fact beautifully. If you haven't seen them yet you need to go check them out.
I will be finished with the 2011 photo album in a few days and will post a link both here and on our Facebook page that will you allow you to view it or get yourself one. It sure has been fun reliving last summer.

Holiday Shopping Guide - Upper Camp
Let's move right up the line to Upper Camp. These guys will be spending less and less time in camp as their trips get longer in Canada. So, I'll again be focusing on what the guys might like if they're on Canadians.
Cabela's Digital Fish Scale - I like this small scale. There are some giants lurking in the depths of the Canadian lakes and rivers and if you want proper bragging rights, then this little gadget should do the trick. Nice price at just $13.
GoPro HD Hero2 - I can almost hear the phone ringing after I post this suggestion. By far the most expensive item I have ever recommended and no doubt I may be pandering a bit to the campers on this one. But the reality is that this is an awesome video camera that has a million uses in and out of camp, especially for the active ones in the family. There were two of these cameras in camp during 2011 and the videos were great. We have some wonderful footage of shooting rapids and portaging that could only be captured with a device like this. And yes, a camper brought one of them to camp. It's lightweight and easy to operate. Though ti costs more than most things I'd recommend, it's less than other great video cameras, so it makes the final cut. This one is listed at $299, but shop around for the best price.
Fred Senior Cardboard Moosehead - Hanging above the door of Knutson Hall is a moose rack brought back to camp in the 1970s from the Bloodvein River. The name of that moose rack is the tam-a-rack. As you know, tams are a big deal at Chippewa. They are earned only on Canadian trips and it is with great pride that, upon entering Knutson Hall, a Chippewa camper or counselor reaches up and hangs his tam on the moose rack. The tam-a-rack is reserved only for tams. I realize that some moms may not want a dead carcass on their walls at home, so this is a great substitute. Grab the cardboard moose rack, hang it on the wall and each tam can hang happily in his room. It's about $50 and they get to put it together!

Holiday Shopping Guide - Middle Camp
Ah, Middle Camp! Seemingly always in the middle of the heap when it comes to lining up for camp store (e.g. "Lower Camp, you're first and head right up the line" or "Let's start with Upper Camp and come down"). Well, let's break the routine and begin this year's shopping guide with the guys from Chalet.
Last year's guide had some great ideas for this age group, especially since they are really beginning to build their skills in so many activities. I thought we could take a slightly different tack with this year's ideas. So, for all of you Mom's and Dad's, here it goes, Chippewa's guide to what dudes want for the holidays:
"Don't Die Out There" Playing Cards - As campers enter Middle Camp, their canoe trips get longer and generally they spend more time out of camp at Hook Island or on the Apostle Sail Trip. A favorite past time is playing cards in your tent in the evening, so why not add a little survival silliness to the whole thing. Very fun!
JOBY GorillaTorch Switchback Lamp - I like JOBY products, like the Gorillapod that I recommended last year. This is a slick light set that is a combination lamp and head light. Great in camp and on the trail since it packs small. I have the WestMarine listing for about $39, but it's also on Amazon for all of you Prime-timers out there.
Portable Ping Pong Set - As any Chippewa camper knows, we play table tennis, not ping pong, at Chippewa. With that said, I can't imagine why this isn't the greatest thing ever. Ever hear the words "I'm bored!" Not an issue with this set...instant ping pong, er table tennis, anytime, anywhere. Not as high quality as the Chippewa tables, but not bad in a pinch. (It's worth adding that I've assumed that your nice china or Waterford crystal is well stashed and has been for many years.)
That's it for Middle Camp. Next up? Just like unwrapping gifts, it's a surprise!

Sailors' Secret Revealed
If you've been on the Apostle Island Sail trip, you know one of camp's best kept secrets. Yes, the Canadians are exceptional trips, but every once and while, a diversion might be good. In this case, it's aboard a 30 foot sloop or 40 foot cat.
Now, Yahoo Travel has posted one of the secrets. It's one of their top 10 "secret" islands to explore.
Take a look, then make sure to sneak away to the Apostles in the next year or two!

Crumbs to put on top of apples

Chippewa Wanderings
It struck me on the flight back from NYC how remarkable it is that the Chippewa family, begun more than 76 years ago with just five boys from Tulsa, now represents countless US cities and more than 15 countries. Certainly it hit me like a brick wall when I landed in Beijing earlier this month (thanks to Calvin W. and his family!) that the world is truly shrinking. Just this week, I mailed three brochure to St. Petersburg, Russia. Our one camper from Moscow a few years ago may have been just a hint of what's to come.
For three decades now, Mexican families have been trekking north to Chippewa. JP visited Mexico City not too many years ago. Now, even the small island state of Martinique is home to a Chippewa camper. Simply Amazing! Most remarkable is how relevant the Chippewa experience is across cultures. Bring boys to Cass Lake, remove technology and immerse them in an adventurous and rewarding wilderness experience, and what remains are boys who grow together.
To of our many international campers, staff and alumni, thanks for making the journey and for widening the reach of our unique camping philosophy. In honor, I attach a photo from 1981 of Ricky G., our first Mexican camper with his very first fish caught in Lake Windigo. (Turns out, his first summer was my first summer. And yes, we were cabinmates in Bunkhouse Cabin. Howdy Ricky!)

The Chippewa Train arrives in London - briefly.
Last month a brief, but fun, unofficial Chippewa rendezvous hit the shores of our Island Nation.
Long-time Chippewa Alum, Charles B (1990's) stopped off on his way from doing business somewhere in Europe for a couple of nights of fun in London - meeting up with Roger C (1990's), Jim F (2000's) and me (2000's).
As with all good Chippewans, the theme of the weekend had to be sport and competition - Friday night saw us in Central London for a spot of cricket - always a fun sight to see England winning, even more fun when trying to explain the rules of cricket to a foreign guest - apparently several 'ground rule doubles' were scored? We even managed an appearance on live TV.
Saturday brought more sports - following a morning of rugby (another England win), we headed to north London for a football match (ok, ok, soccer match) courtesy of Roger C.
So wherever you are in the world, have a look, you might find a Chippewa Alum or two

Camp Counselor or Internship?
An interesting post on USA Today over the summer argues that working at camp is more valuable than becoming an intern, especially if you are looking for professional skills. I have to say that many of his points are right on the money, in particular his summary :
"Working at {camp} has taught me perhaps the most important skill for any job: grit."
Is grit a key component as a counselor? Read his thoughts. Then come work at camp!

Research and the NFL
A couple of years ago, I wrote a short reaction to NFL Play 60 campaign. Now, some researchers are actually studying the impact camps can have on a sedentary lifestyle for children. A summary of the research paper suggests that camp is (as we already know intuitively as camp families) 'an antidote to the summer sedentary behaviors of young people'.
Now that my Detroit Lions may actually have a team, I see more and more of the Play 60 campaign ads. Now get out there and play....then come to camp for some 24/7 sloth-busting!

"The Meaning of Summer Camp"
Just in case you missed this Time magazine article a while back, I thought I would post it for you. It provides a wonderful perspective for parents who are considering sending their son (or daughter) to camp. A few excerpts to tempt you:
"So I wasn't looking for some fancy culinary camp or robotics camp or whatever is fashionable now, just for someplace that teaches the appropriate interactions of sticks, weenies and flame."
"This defies what I suspect is now the whole point of sleepaway camp: if 19th century campers were meant to retrieve lost survival skills--trapping, fishing, gunnery--21st century campers need to work on their social skills......For kids who are allowed to text during dinner, who have their parents on speed dial for whenever they get in trouble or need a ride, who communicate using more acronyms than a four-star general, a little autonomy is probably long overdue"
And maybe my favorite:
"Maybe it wouldn't be bad to practice distance, not just physical but psychological; let our kids take a walk alone in the woods, maybe do the same ourselves, and relish the fresh conversations we'll get to have when we are together again come summer's end."
Take a look!

Camp Chippewa Is The Place To Be
This is camper Tommy R. writing from the camp office. This year at Camp Chippewa has been great. I haven't done every activity here at camp but I really look forward to them. My favorite activity here at camp has got to be sailing. The sailing instructors are really nice and they're really experienced and its so fun learning about parts of the boat and knots and learning how to sail the boat. A close second would have to be Riflery. Learning how to shoot the rifle, hold it, and safely operate it. For those who not know the cook, Mary, sorry Moms but you have to move out of the way. Mary mastered the culinary arts just as Cap Endres mastered the perfect camp. There's the best cookies in the world made here and best food. And to the kids that are coming you're gonna love this place. I was a bit touchy about coming here for four weeks for my second year but I am glad I did. Last year I stayed for two weeks and trust me, I made a bad decision for not staying here two more. There's all sorts of activities to do from fencing to water skiing, from riflery to archery and way more. And you're gonna love the staff, Mike Thompson, the Director of camp, is awesome. Anyways, I'm already excited for next year. Don't choose language camp, or archery camp, or anything else because Camp Chippewa is the place to be.

Another Session Update...
The weather is fine, and the wind is blowing. Yet another perfect day on the shores of Cass Lake. Over the last few days we couldn't have asked for better camp weather. The sailors were happy with their breeze, the canoeists were delighted with a few waves to negotiate, and the swimmers were glad of a slightly warmer Buck Lake.
The last few days have seen the departure of several trips to destinations throughout the North Woods - just this morning we waved off Olson Cabin who were heading to the Crow Wing River, and Eagle's Nest - destination Canada and the Quetico.
With all these trips heading out, camp is much smaller (but not necessarily quieter), though a smaller camp is an opportunity not to be missed. A bright, warm Super Sunday was the perfect excuse for the whole camp to relocate to Cedar Island for the afternoon, spending several hours swimming on the sandbar and exploring the dropoff.
Today there is a new challenge ahead. The boys will be competing in Camp Chippewa's own version of the 'Amazing Race', and I am sure there will be some intense competition to be the first team to solve the puzzles and unlock the prize.
That's the news for now.
