The Power of the Dudley Connection Dear Friends, On a cold March afternoon I received a visit from a long lost Eastern European friend. #15855 Pawel Kicinski, who came to us from Poland as an AL in 1991, and a leader in 1992-­94, was in the States for a con-­ ference in North Carolina. At its conclusion, he thought, “I must get back to Dudley.” Though it was 14 hours by car, the pull for Pawel was overwhelming, and as a result we spent an afternoon walking, talking and reconnecting.

Said Pawel, “I first came to Plattsburgh, NY to visit an exchange student who lived with us in Poland. During my two-­week visit, we came to Camp Dudley where I met Willie Schmidt. He let me stay all day and visit with campers and leaders. At the end of the day, he offered me a Dudley Director #13804 Matt Storey (R), with leadership job for the following summer. I came the next three sum-­ #15855 Pawel Kicinski (L) at Camp mers, and Dudley remains one of the most influential experiences of my life,” he told me. “My lessons in leadership from Dudley hold true today. My first leader #12735 Ed O’Hara was such a good role model that all I wanted to do was to be like him.

When I returned as a leader, I felt a great responsibility to do my best for the campers, my fellow leaders and for Willie, who had given me this great chance.”

Pawel’s pilgrimage to Dudley was an excellent reminder for me of just how treasured this place is for so many. We walked, visited his cabins, the new buildings and took in the beautiful views of the Lake and the mountains. We shared our mutual good fortune to be able to call this place home.

I am spoiled by the number of great folks that I get to reconnect with as part of my job. I never tire of hearing the stories from others who have found neighbors, co-­workers, roommates and teachers who also went to Dudley, and how they instantly “connected” because of their shared values and experience.

Davo and I drove over to Middlebury, VT, to have a “mini-­reunion” dinner with #18778 Blake Harper, #19279 Matt Wojciechowicz and #19304 Tommy Dils, three of our Dudley leaders. Tommy recalled that during his first week at Middlebury he ran into #19227 Jack DeFrino, #19691 Quincy Nichols and #20481 Fitz Bowen, all Dudleyites on the lacrosse team. Tommy played on the soccer team with #18538 Graham Knisley and quickly ran into #20364 Mary Claire Ecclesine and #22352 Ali Surdoval from Kiniya as well as Emily Vicks, whose brother, #19100 Dwight, was a leader at camp. “Meeting these Dudleyites so early at Midd helped me feel right at home and was a huge help . . . reminding me of my first few days as a Cub back in 2005.”

Being connected to Dudley is a rare advantage that we are fortunate to have. Let’s remember that along with it comes the responsibility to demonstrate “The Other Fellow First,” our shared value that never gets old.

Respectfully, #13804 Matt Storey, Director

. . . Forever Connected!

Greetings  From  Kiniya, Reading  through  our  Strategic  Planning  Survey  responses,  I  am  reminded  of  our   connections  to  Camp  as  we  move  through  life  and  how,  for  many  of  us,  these  connections  change  as  we  grow.  ‡ $V FDPSHUV  eagerly  awaiting  each  summer’s  Opening  Day,  Camp  is  the  place  we  can’t  help  thinking  about  during  the  depth  of  winter.  Our  day-­ dreams  take  us  to  a  happy  place  called  Kiniya,  as  an  escape  from  homework  and  chores.  Some  never  outgrow  this  phase  —  and  that  is  a  wonderful  thing! ‡ $V \RXQJ OHDGHUV  Camp  reflects  the  relationships  we’ve  created  with  our  peers  who  can  support  us  through  challenging  times.  These  relationships  Kiniya  Director  #20001  Marnie  McDonagh help  guide  us  through  high  school  and  college  as  we  celebrate  success  and  deal  with  rejection.  Our  peer  support  network  is  as  important  at  home  and  school  as  it  is  when  we  share  our  summers  together.  Even  if  we  do  not  feel  as  deeply  connected  to  Camp  during  these  years,  we  know  these  relationships  with  our  Camp  peers  never  fade.  ‡ $V ZH KHDG LQWR WKH ZRUNLQJ ZRUOG,  demands  of  work  life  may  pull  us  away  from  Camp.  But  the  regular  reminder  through  CD  News,  frequent  social  media  posts,  and  occasional  get-­togethers  with  old  Camp  pals  keep  us  connected.  Though  latent,  the  feeling  is  still  there,  and  is  no  less  important.  ‡ $V ZH IRVWHU UHODWLRQVKLSV DQG VWDUW IDPLOLHV RI RXU RZQ  we  begin  to  relive  our  Camp  years  through  the  eyes  and  the  hearts  of  our  children,  grandchildren  (maybe  even  great-­grandchildren!)  and  nieces  and  nephews.  Their  actual  experiences  at  Camp  will  vary  from  those  we  remember,  but  the  emotions  and  the  joy  are  ever  so  familiar  .  .  .  the  flame  in  our  heart  for  Camp  burns  strongly  again.   Regardless  of  your  current  stage  of  life,  and  connection  to  Camp,  please  know  that  Kiniya  is  a  place  that  you  can  always  come  back  to.  I  am  thrilled  to  be  a  part  of  Camp  for  this  very  reason  and  to  be  building  on  the  work  of  those  who  came  before.  As  I  see  Kiniya  in  all  of  its  winter  glory,  with  the  promise  of  spring  at  hand,  I  can  also  see  the  glimpses  of  its  incredible  potential  and  exciting  future.  We  are  grateful,  proud  and  filled  with  hope  and  antici-­ pation  for  the  years  to  come.  We  embark  on  summer  2014  with  utmost  enthusiasm  and  look  forward  to  sharing  it  with  each  one  of  you!

Warm  regards,  #20001  Marnie  McDonagh,  Director

Letters to the Editor . . .

The  Dudley  Admissions  Department,  under  Evan  George,  recently  received  a  very  nice  letter  of  recom-­ mendation,  supporting  the  candidacy  of  a  prospective  camper.  The  letter  came  from  Paul  Ingrey  of  Palm  Beach,  FL,  who  also  has  a  summer  home  in  Hague,  NY.   He  wrote,  in  part,  “I  have  known  Dudley  for  about  60  years.  I  believe  it  is  the  outstanding  camp  facility,  but  also  much  more  than  a  facility.  It  really  does  help  youngsters  to  grow  and  mature.�  Very  nice,  recommendation  noted.  But  then  Paul  went  on  to  say,  “I  have  an  old  friend  named  Paul  Grinwis.  It  is  my  belief  that  Paul  still  helps  out  around  the  grounds  as  a  retiree.  Many  years  ago,  I  think  in  1958,  he  brought  quite  a  basketball  team  down  to  Silver  Bay  where  I  was  working,  to  play  us  employees  in  our  indoor  gym.   That  team  included  some  Dudley  legends,  including  Phil  ‘Lefty�  Bisselle,  Alf  Kaemmerlen,  Pete  Willmott,  the  Belz  brothers,  several  of  whom  were  the  captains  of  their  college  teams  .  .  .  Colgate,  Princeton  and  Williams.  Your  counselors  beat  us  by  about  60  points  —  they  were  good!  Anyway,  I  do  have  many  great  memories  of  Dudley  and  its  ‘other  guy  first’  excellence.  Thanks,  Paul  Ingrey.�

The  editors  wanted  to  confirm  details  of  this  story  of  55  years  ago,  going  directly  to  Grinny.  Said  Grinny,  “Absolutely  accurate.  I  have  known  Paul  Ingrey  since  the  early  1950s  from  Silver  Bay  where  my  parents  used  to  go.  The  basketball  game  he  referred  to  was  in  1958.  I  believe  the  cast  of  characters  included  the  above  mentioned  plus  Bruce  Gerhke,  Charlie  Johnson  and  me.  I  forgot  my  sneakers  and  had  to  share  with  Charlie  so  each  of  us  got  to  play  a  little.  Believe  it  or  not  I  had  brought  Barbara  Watson  with  me  and  when  we  stopped  at  the  Cave  in  Hague  *ULQQ\ DQG &'$ 5HXQLRQ GDWH %DUEDUD afterwards  for  Watson some  beers,  we  could  not  get  served  as  she  was  only  17.  I  still  hear  about  that.�

THE Â CAMP Â DUDLEY Â NEWS

Pete  Willmott’s  recollection  was,  “The  game  took  place  during  Reunion,  which  explains  both  why  then  Director  Bob  Marshall  would  let  us  play,  and  also  the  attendance  of  Barbara  Watson,  who  would  have  been  at  the  Reunion  with  her  family,  staying  in  one  of  the  Frisbie  cottages.  We  stayed  out  very  late,  primarily  try-­ ing  to  find  a  bar  where  Barbara  could  be  admitted.  I  remember  the  Gerk,  in  particular,  not  being  too  happy  with  Paul.� #8891  Moose  Rogers,  Bronxville,  NY,  wrote  to  the  editors,  saying,  “We  were  looking  at  the  Fall  2013  CD  News  again  and  I  noticed  an  error  in  my  note.  It  said,  “Matt  Rogers  and  his  brother  David  Johnson.�  The  funny  thing  is  I  used  their  camp  numbers  too.

To  bring  you  up  to  date,  Dave  Rogers  and  his  wife  Kel-­ ley  have  a  beautiful  daughter  Ella,  now  3-­months  old.  On  another  topic,  I  took  the  boys  to  Scotland  for  10  days  of  golf  this  summer.  Needless  to  say  it  was  a  once  in  a  lifetime,  fabulous  trip.

Ed.  Note:  Sorry  Moose,  there  are  now  so  many  Johnsons  and  so  many  Rogers  that  we  must  have  had  a  hard  time  keeping  them  straight!  For  the  record,  Rich  and  Gay  Johnson  Rogers  have  three  sons, #15891 Alexander, #15091 David and  #13891 Matthew.

Small World #15917 Christian Thorn, New York, NY, who is with LGT Capital Partners in New York, went to Boston on business recently and was introduced by a colleague to #12625 Daniel Madison of RBC Capital Markets in Boston. Christian said, “As we were chat-­ ting, Dan mentioned that he had grown up in the Syracuse region, and I mentioned that my family had a house in the Adirondacks. He then said that he and his brother had attended a camp in Westport! Dudley?!? Go figure . . . here I am with my Swiss colleague in Boston and the guy I’m meeting with is a Dudley guy! Daniel eventually remembered his Dudley number, and immediately texted his brother #9947 Joe who is in the 9000s. #12625 Daniel has a ten year old son and lives in Newton MA outside of Boston.

#21804 Henry Gillis, St. Louis, MO, was in Orlando, FL for a lacrosse event (3D Blue Chip Camp) where Henry unexpectedly ran into his buddy #21789 Chris Dunne, of Davie, FL who was there with his dad Pete. Henry was competing with the Class of 2018 group and Chris was in the Class of 2017 group. It was a great weekend. The pic-­ ture was taken during halftime of one of Henry’s games. This past summer Henry was in Hamilton and Chris was in Williams cabins, about 25 feet from each other!

Caroline Burch, the longtime production/manufacturing director for Storey Publish-­ ing in North Adams, MA, was on a trip to visit Vicks Publishing in Yorkville, NY, which Dudley dad Dwight Vicks owns and operates. Decades earlier, when Caroline worked with #5320 Ed Fisher in getting the CD News out, she had been gifted a Camp Dudley sweatshirt. On this most recent trip, Caroline squeezed in a visit to her old home town, Aurora, NY, and happened to be sporting her CD sweatshirt on the sidewalks of Auro-­ ra, when she was stopped in her tracks by an acquaintance, Randi Shaw Zabriskie, who Henry Gillis and Chris Dunne owns a dress shop in Aurora. Asked Randi, “Why are YOU wearing a Dudley sweatshirt, PHHW DW WKH ODFURVVH ILHOG LQ Caroline???” Randi and her husband Steve are the parents of #15932 Charlie Zabriskie, Florida!

New York, NY, who is also the grandson of #5932 Rube Shaw. Charlie had just attend-­ ed a “Dudley Today” gathering in NYC and had agreed to contribute an article on “The Lost Sheep Campaign” to Dave Langston. Pretty appropriate! #20001 Marnie McDonagh ran into Majken Tranby (Kiniya ’94-­’99) in the Lululemon store (where Majken works!) on Church Street, Burlington, VT, in December. Majken’s parents, Mike and Sue Tranby, own Shore Acres Restaurant and lodging in North Hero, VT, and Majken remains close with her Kiniya friends. Her roommate in Burlington is none other than Ann Carpenter (Kiniya 1994-­2001) who graduated from UVM in 2006 and has lived in Burlington ever since! Majken promises to visit this summer. #18002 Martha Storey, taking a walk in Placida, FL, population around 1800, spotted a young man fishing. “Caught anything yet?” she asked. The young man turned around, looked at her sporting her Dudley-­Kiniya hat, and said, “Wait a minute . . . is that Camp Dudley — on Lake Champlain?” Equally surprised, Martha said, “It is.” “Wow! I’m #19918 Peter Kowalski, from Burlington, VT, and I was at Camp four years ago.” The #19918 Peter Kowalski in next day brother #18518 Jack Kowalski, who is a student at Furman University, and who Placida, FL. was recently a leader at Dudley, joined Peter and his family.

Transitions . . . Chairman Poler to Chairman Quigley

T

here  was  no  doubt  that  #11889  Dwight  Poler  would  become  a  Dudleyite.  His  grandfather,  #3043  E.  Edson  Poler,  came  in  1919  and  his  father,  #7689  Hank  Poler,  in  1948.  Dwight  came  in  1976,  and  met  his  young  leader  #11264  Mark  “Davo�  Davenport.  Dudley  lessons  learned  well,  Dwight  was  named  to  the  Board  and  became  Chairman  in  2009.

#10643  Matt  Quigley’s  route  to  the  Dudley  Board  was  less  predictable.  Largely  raised  in  a  single  parent  Wilton,  CT  home,  his  working  mom  was  invited  by  Dudley  ambassa-­ dors  Endy  and  Pat  Perry,  to  “come  over  for  a  Dudley  Reunion.�   Recalled  Matt,  “The  Perrys  were  effusive  about  Dudley  and  my  Mom  was  instantly  sold!  I  took  the  New  York  to  Westport  train  and  was  warmly  greeted  for  the  summer  of  1968.  My  younger  brother,  #11184  Peter,  came  to  Dudley  three  years  later.�

Said  Dwight  of  his  five  years  as  Board  Chair,  “We  expected  great  summers,  happy  par-­ ents,  glowing  kids.  We  did  not  expect   the  collapse  of  ‘the  Banks’  (not  financial  institu-­ tions,  but  the  banks  of  Lake  Champlain,  just  before  Camp  started!);   the  movement/ rebuilding  of  five  cabins;  a  new  director,  business  manager,  and  development  director  search;  launching  the  NOLS  program;   revamping  the  leadership  development  pro-­ gram  or  the  2013  summer  noro-­virus!   So  much  unexpected,  but  such  extraordinary  resources:   two  Directors  who  make  the  hardest  challenges  look  easy;  a  leadership  team  that  delivers  every  summer;  alumni  that  step  up  with  extraordinary  generosity.  It  has  been  a  JOY  to  be  Chairman  of  this  special  place!�

Matt  Quigley  brings  solid  Dudley  background  (1968-­74,  camper  through  JL)  and  experience  (Dudley  Board  2006-­10  and  Finance  Chair  for  most  of  his  tenure)  to  the  Board.  Recalls  Matt,  “I  had  seven  wonderful  leaders  at  Camp  and  took  away  some-­ thing  special  from  each.  On  the  coaching  side,   #8070  Ben  Nelson  stands  out  amongst  many  great  Dudley  teachers,  combining  life  lessons  with  his  ministry  of  sport  —  that  much  can  be  accomplished  with  teamwork  and  hard  work  and   we  must  learn  from  our  mistakes.  Ben  asked  for  toughness  on  the  court  but  offered  empathy  off  it,  and  he  was  always  there  for  you.�

Dudley Welcomes New Board Members Mike Bransford #13033 — Minneapolis, MN

Mike arrived at Dudley in 1981 during the Willie era. Growing up, Mike had heard countless Dudley stories but was eager to make sense of it himself. It all came together when Mike’s Cub leader, Doug “the Bug Man” Schmidt, decided to parachute (unannounced) into main campus on July 4th. In Mike’s words, “It’s tough for a 10-­year old to pin down the Dudley experience, but the impact is real. Dudley offers an amazing combination of experiences at precisely the right age – exposure to new activities and perspectives, heartfelt support and encouragement, hilarious sponta-­ neity, gratitude, rock-­solid friendship, and appreciation for the value in putting the other fellow first.”

Says Mike, “Dudley has been a bedrock in our family since my dad, #8982 Roger Bransford, stepped foot on campus in 1955. My dad grew up down the street from best pal, #8804 John Storey, in Chatham NJ, who introduced him to Dudley.” Roger relished all things Dudley and remained a fixture at camp throughout his life, serving as camper, leader, fabled painter of red rock, former Board Chairman, and CDA Man of the Year in 1997, the year he passed away. Mike shared memorable camper years (1981-­1984) with his brothers, #12743 Jeff and #13623 Steve. Mike and his wife, Gretchen, have three children: #22033 Henry, #22733 Rose, and #TBA William, who are hard at work on their own camp stories.

Mike grew up in Atlanta, and graduated from Cornell University and Columbia Business School. Mike’s career in finance has included market-­making in Chicago and London derivative exchanges, investment banking in New York and London, and portfolio/risk management in Minneapolis, MN. The family settled in Minneapolis in 2007, where Mike currently works as Vice President of Capital Markets and Risk Man-­ agement for Ameriprise Financial. Says Mike, “I am honored to serve on the Dudley Board and hope to provide useful perspective as both a Dudley and Kiniya parent.”

Jack Kotz #7951 — Kiawah Island, SC

For more than a century, beginning with camper #742 Eugene Cowlin (Jack’s grand-­ father and a boyhood friend of Chief Beckman), the family has been a presence at Dudley. Jack’s first year was 1949; he served as a JL and leader during the summers of 1954-­56. Though he was involved in the Rhythm Ramblers and edited The Last Whistle, it was a love of the outdoors that truly captured his interest for the rest of his life. Jack and his wife, Katie, honeymooned in Westport, with Director Bob Marshall announcing their marriage at hymn sing in July, 1961!

After a Ph.D. at Cornell, postdoctoral appointments, and several years on the faculty of Kansas State, Jack and Katie settled in Oneonta, New York, where Jack led a dis-­ tinguished career as Professor of Chemistry at SUNY-­Oneonta. He won numerous awards for teaching, among them being named a SUNY Distinguished Teaching Pro-­ fessor. Jack was an accomplished speaker and lecturer, as well as coauthor of funda-­ mental textbooks for inorganic and general chemistry.

As an active member of the American Chemical Society, Dr. Kotz presented over sixty talks on chemical education and the use of technology to students and faculty at colleges and universities in the U.S. and abroad. Instrumental in the revolution in education facilitated by technology, Dr. Kotz served as the Director of Educational Technology for the College at Oneonta, as well as being a member of the Fulbright Advisory Board and Board of Directors for College of Oneonta Foundation.

Jack and his wife Katie have two sons, #12190 David and #12135 Peter, who at-­ tended camp in the 1970’s. Katie was involved in civic activities in Oneonta for many years, and the whole family enjoyed camping and hiking in the Adirondacks. They lived overseas several times. Jack has retired, and he and Katie now live on Kiawah Island, South Carolina, when they aren’t traveling. Jack is an accomplished photogra-­ pher, beautifully documenting their visits to remote areas of the world.

Twenty family members over five generations have Dudley camper numbers, includ-­ ing grandchildren #19135 Andrew, #19136 Ian, #19137 PJ, #20335 Emilie, #20690 John, #21790 Mara, and #22490 Andy. Jack is pleased to be able to serve on the camp’s Board of Managers for the support and friendship that Dudley has given to him and his family over the years.

Mark Valkenburgh #15133 -­-­ “Valky” — Cambridge, MA

As a camper, leader and assistant division head during the summers of 1990-­2001, Mark became intimately familiar with Camp Dudley, and he carries many of the fond and nostalgic memories that most alums do. Mark was connected to Dudley through a friendship with the Perry family of Wilton, CT and through his grandfather, Frank Hutchins, who treasured the Adirondacks and lived by Dudley values in every way.

0DUN ³9DON\´ 9DONHQEXUJK

Today, Mark’s enthusiasm for camp is stronger than ever: “There is no institution, no mission, no community that I hold more sacred, and in today’s fast-­paced, individu-­ alistic culture, there is no motto more important than ‘The Other Fellow First.’” He anticipates bringing his industry experience, constructive perspective, and energy to his role on the Board of Managers.

Mark and his wife, Emily, live in Cambridge, MA. Mark works for Google, Inc. as an Account Executive focused on digital media. Since joining Google he has served on a healthcare-­focused team, helping clients with ongoing digital marketing efforts, and rethinking healthcare delivery and discovery via web-­based platforms. Mark is pas-­ sionate about supporting innovation through technology and efficiently connecting patients to the quality care they need. Mark previously worked in healthcare consult-­ ing and later served as a Product Manager for Johnson & Johnson.

Mark brings his love of camp, an empathy for the pressures on college-­age leaders, a deep belief in Dudley tradition coupled with a material understanding of the need for change and evolution. He also possesses an inherent bent toward diversity and inclusion, and an interest in bringing Dudley out into the world. Mark looks forward to the opportunity to become more involved in the mission of enriching young peo-­ ples’ lives and supporting the Dudley-­Kiniya foundational pillars of service, character, leadership, compassion and integrity.

THE CAMP DUDLEY NEWS

Kathy Wiseman #23372 — Williamstown, MA

Kathy became acquainted with Camp Kiniya and Dudley through her daughter #21772 Abby and other Williamstown, Massachusetts families. Kathy has seen firsthand how camp’s leadership development program has positively impacted Abby’s skills and is ready to embrace the opportunity to be a part of Dudley’s organizational structure.

Professionally, Kathy works as a Pediatrician in North Adams, MA. Her interest in health care and the well being of children has a long history. In college, as a partici-­ pant in the Big Brother/Big Sister program, in post-­college work in Africa as a Peace Corps volunteer, Kathy gained invaluable experience in the emotional and physical aspects of developing immunization, HIV prevention, and general preventive health care programs.

In her community, Kathy continues to educate younger children (booster seat use, healthy diet and exercise) and teens (adequate sleep, knee injury prevention, concus-­ sion management). She also serves as one of the school physicians for the local elemen-­ tary, middle and high schools, and is on the board of Berkshire Nursing Families as a medical advisor.

As a member of the Dudley Board of Managers, Kathy is interested in providing input on health services (both preventive and treatment based), ensuring that emergency action plans are in place, supporting programs that foster individual skills as well as teamwork, and reviewing structural facilities and how they affect health, safety and programming. Kathy sums it up with these words: “The camp has been a wonderful experience for Abby, and I would enjoy the opportunity to help assure that such an experience is available for other campers in the years to come.”

Welcome to the Year Round Staff!

Mollie Farnham #22406 Outdoor Education Director and Clinical Social Worker

Mollie joins the Kiniya year-­round staff as Outdoor Education Director and Clinical Social Worker, fresh from graduate school in New Hampshire. A clinically trained social worker, spe-­ cializing in adventure therapy, Mollie brings these skills to both Dudley and Kiniya. Mollie first vis-­ ited Dudley in the late 1990s, introduced by her now-­fiancé, #15069 Billy Stratton. After 10+ years of adventures working for other summer camps and experiential/ecological educa-­ tion schools in Colorado and Upstate New York, wilderness therapy programs in Alaska and Ontario, Canada, she was invited to work at Camp Dudley in the outdoor program-­ ming department in 2011. Mollie helped with the develop-­ ment of the 10-­day Aides experience while working at Camp in 2012. Mollie is excited to now build up programming in all things outdoors at Camp Kiniya! She is passionate about mentoring girls and young women to find comfort and con-­ fidence in their engagement with the natural world.

The CDA reunion is a wonderful opportunity to reminisce with old friends, connect with new ones, and learn about new initiatives that are taking place at Dudley and Kiniya today. It is also a great way to intro-­ duce others to the people, places and traditions that

make Dudley a special place for us all. We look forward to seeing you.

We would love to see you for all or any part of the week-­ end. Please let us know that you are coming — RSVP via the website so we make sure that accommodations and meals can be set up ahead of time. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you all in August!

Meet the CDA Officers President, #13820 Marcus F. Chioffi — Greenwich, CT Marcus has taught and coached at Brunswick School, Greenwich CT, since 2000, in an environ-­ ment that closely resembles Dud-­ ley. Marcus came to Camp in 1985 as a plebe, has never missed more than two consecutive sum-­ mers and has been on campus 23 of the past 30 summers as a camper, leader and staff member. He has worked on the A-­Hut, maintenance, and boathouse staffs in West-­ port. Marcus met his wife, #16964 Joanie at Camp in 1996. They are the proud parents of Jack (7) and Caro-­ line (2). Marcus also joined Joanie, who was then Leader-­ ship Director at Kiniya, for the summer of 2007 as the Kiniya Program Director. The couple worked alongside Marnie, helping to lay the transformative foundation of leadership and program which has been built upon by many others over the past eight summers. Says Marcus, “Being able to come back summers to work in the A-­hut plus working on the Camp Dudley Association with Matt and Marnie is still a thrill for me and my family.”

Vice President, #14992 C. David Ready — Brooklyn, NY Dave is the Director of Commu-­ nications for the Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn Heights, NY. Prior to joining Packer in 2004, Dave spent three years as journal-­ ism teacher, dorm parent, and basketball/lacrosse coach at Brew-­ ster Academy in Wolfeboro, NH. Hypnotized by Willie Schmidt’s reunion slideshow in his Richmond, VA home town, Dave signed up as a Junior in 1989. Over the next 15 years, he missed only one summer, and became Senior D-­Head. Dave edited both the Dudley Doings and Last Whistle and helped implement the Arts Majors program.

With his wife, Emmy, and toddler son, Thomas, he lives in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. Their niece, #22392 Victoria, is looking forward to her third summer ‘neath the Pines in 05446 at Camp Kiniya. “Outside of my immediate family, Camp Dudley has been the single most important influence in my life — personally, professionally, spiritu-­ ally,” says Dave. “I could not be more honored to serve my fellow Dudley alumni in this new role.”

The Lost Sheep Campaign #15932 Charlie Zabriskie . . . was lost then found!

R

emember  a  world  without  smartphones  and  email?  We  do  too.  The  oldest  data-­ base  at  Camp  is  an  impressive  piece  of  history—a  handwritten  ledger  holds  the  names  and  camp  numbers  of  every  Dudleyite  to  ever  grace  the  hallowed  grounds  of  Dudley.  It’s  a  treasure  indeed,  but  in  today’s  digital  world  the  ability  to  keep  in  touch  with  our  Dudley  family  requires  slightly  more  information  than  just  camp  num-­ bers  (sadly).

The  switch  from  manual  to  digital  record  keeping  has  been  a  lesson  in  perseverance  for  our  tenacious  office  staff,  as  it  requires  frequent  updates.  It  is  an  exciting  step  for-­ ward,  but  the  switch  has  reminded  us  of  a  few  things:  Â

1 Email  addresses  and  phone  numbers  are  notably  more  useful  than  camp    numbers  when  it  comes  to  getting  in  touch,  but

   Â

2 Even  if  we  have  yours  on  file,  they  might  not  be  up  to  date.  If  you’ve    changed  your  email  address  from  something  like  hotjock96@aol.com,  great   move  (Davo)‌but  send  us  the  new  one!

       Â

3  Finally,  not  everyone  has  made  a  personal  switch  to  the    digital  age,  which  means  they  might  not  even  have  access  to   the  website,  our  last  line  of  defense.  Our  outreach  to  our    Dudley  family   extends  only  as  far  as  permitted  by  the  tools  at  our  disposal,  and  our  tools  need  some  work.  If  you’ve    changed  your  email,  you  don’t  have  email,  or  your  phone    number  and/or  home  address  has  changed,  we  can’t  see  you    and  you  can’t  see  us.  And  that’s  no  way  to  be!

If  you’re  reading  this,  we’re  thrilled  you  are  connected  with  Camp.  You  know  just  how  special  it  is  to  attend  reunion  in  August,  to  welcome  Matt  and  Marnie  to  your  home-­ town,  to  read  the  CD  News  and  to  hear  about  all  of  the  exciting  happenings  at  Camp.  If  you  lost  touch  for  a  while  and  then  reconnected,  you’ve  experienced  that  visceral  thrill  when  you  first  set  foot  back  on  campus.  We  want  all  of  our  Dudleyites  to  experi-­ ence  that  feeling.

Here’s the problem:  The  ones  we’re  looking  for  are  obviously  not  reading  this.  The  unfortunate  reality  is  that  we’re  only  in  touch  with  about  25%  of  our  living  Dudleyites,  not  including  current  and  recent  campers.  Sadly,  the  others  probably  don’t  even  know  we’re  looking  for  them.  It  is  our  mission  to  at  least  triple  that  number  by  2017.  Now here’s the fun part:  We’re  compiling  a  list,  organized  by  camp  num-­ ber,  of  all  Dudleyites  for  whom  we  have  no  recent  contact  info.  Do  you  see  the  names  of  your  friends/aides/Als  and  JLs  or  leaders?   Do  you  remember  how  in-­ tegral  they  were  to  your  Dudley  experience??  Are  you  surprised  they’re  on  our  Lost Â

The actual number of  alumni  on  Camp’s  mailing  list  is  low,   but  remember  that  most  of  our  alumni  have  had  one  to  five  years  of  an  amazing  camping  experience.  They  do,  however,  finish  camp  at  age  15,  finish  high  school  and  go  to  college  or  work  before  they  start  a  family  and  think  about  bringing  their  children  back  to  Lake  Cham-­ plain.  It’s  during  those  years  that  they  can  become  disconnected.

You can see we have a lot of work to do.  How  can  you  help?  It’s  easy  and  fun!  1  Ask  every  Dudley  or  Kiniya  friend  you  know  if  they  get  mail  from  camp.                Please  don’t  assume  they  do.  Do  they  get  the  CD  News?   Do  they  get   email  or  enrollment  reminders?   Do  they  get  requests  to  support  our  Annual    Fund?  If  they  don’t  hear  from  us,  get  their  name,  address,  phone  number     and  email  and  send,  phone  or  email  it  to  us  at  camp.     Â

3 Get  out  an  old  Last  Whistle,  Spirit  or  CD  News.  Flip  through  it  and  find  two  of  your  friends.  Reach  out  to  them.  Swap  some  stories  and  then  find  out   if  they  are  connected.  If  not,  you  know  what  to  do.  Get  them  reconnected. Â

And so it goes in the the world of Dudley and Kiniya friendships.  Beginning  with  this  edition  of  the  CD  News,  we  will  be  including  this  section  of  lost  and  recently  found  alumni.  We  are  pleased  to  welcome  our  recently  recovered  “lost  sheepâ€?  and  ask  for  your  help  finding  those  that  are  still  unconnected.  If  you  have  any  information  about  how  we  can  be  in  touch  with  our  lost  friends,  please  contact  the  Camp  office  (518-­962-­4720)  or  email  dawn@campdudley.org.

Staying Connected!

EVERY DAY  somebody  on  the  year  round  teams  in  Westport  and  Colchester  has  at  least  one  conversation  with  an  alum  who  tells  a  story  about  bumping  into  someone  wearing  a  Dudley  hat,  sweatshirt  or  other  unmistakable  piece  of  classic  camp  attire.  The  question  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  your  number?â&#x20AC;?  immediately  follows.  Greetings  are  exchanged  and  tales  of  cabins,  dips,  mutual  friends,  vespers  and  hymn  sings  are  enthusiastically  told.  You  can  almost  smell  the  council  ring  fire  as  you  chat.  In  that  instant,  our  camps  are  the  most  important  thing  in  the  world.  But  before  you  know  it,  two  very  busy  people  head  off  in  different  directions.

Nationally,  Woodrow  Wilson  was  in  the  White  House,  the  Panama  Canal  was  about  to  open,  and  the  U.S.  population  was  approaching  a  milestone  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  100  million  Americans.

That  year,  the  Campâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  total  operating  budget  was  $8,725.  Tuition  for  the  9-­week  sum-­ mer  had  been  nudged  up  to  $72.   A  round-­trip  ticket  from  Grand  Central  Station  to  â&#x20AC;&#x153;the  Westport  milk  stationâ&#x20AC;?  was  $8.50,  and  the  Camp  Directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  salary  was  $400.   Some  groused  that  he  was  overpaid!

Camp  founder  Sumner  Dudley,  who  had  started  with  seven  boys  in  1885,  would  have  been  amazed  that  Camp  was  expect-­ ing  245  boys  and  men  that  summer  in  their  â&#x20AC;&#x153;permanent  Dudley  homeâ&#x20AC;?  on  the  former  Roe  farm  on  what  would  become  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dudley  Road.â&#x20AC;?  Our  beautiful  location  had  been  acquired  with  the  help  of  the  NY  State  YMCA  Executive  Committee  some  seven  years  earlier,  in  1908.

Then,  Chief,  in  a  burst  of  energy  and  fund  raising  enthusiasm,  was  hap-­ py  to  announce  that  the  summer  of  1914  would  be  â&#x20AC;&#x153;bigger  and  better  than  ever.â&#x20AC;?  As  reported  in  the  Dudley  Doings,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;During  Christmas  week  the  Chief  tried  a  new  stunt  and  made  a  trip  through  New  York  State  to  hold  a  number  of  Reunions  in  the  various  Dudley  Centers.â&#x20AC;?  Stops  were  made  in  Albany,  Gloversville,  Watertown,  Rochester,  Buffalo,  and  Jamestown  for  the  first  time. Â

Lest  there  be  any  doubt  in  parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  minds  that  Camp  was  for  the  boys,  a  new  sign  went  up  on  the  front  gate  which  read,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Visitors  welcome  on  Wednesday  afternoons  from  2-­5  pm.â&#x20AC;?  Two  major  new  facilities  were  dedicated: Â&#x2021; 7KH EUDQG QHZ $YHU\ %RDW +RXVH RQ :HQVOH\ %D\ VLWWLQJ just  where  it  sits  today.   This  was  made  possible  by  a  gift  from  Samuel  P.  Avery  in  1913.

On  the  eve  of  Campâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  opening,  Chief  said,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;What  a  glorious  Camp  we  should  have  this  summer!   With  the  carpenter  shop  and  the  new  boat  house  available,  and  the  extensive  program  planned  for  this  yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  camp,  Dudley  should  experience  the  best  season  in  its  entire  history.â&#x20AC;?

The  season  itself  was  an  unqualified  success.  The  first  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Indian  Pageantâ&#x20AC;?  was  written,  charting  the  sagas  of  the  tribes  of  North  America,  and  held  in  the  Archery  Glen.

Hikers  departed  for  the  high  peaks,  including  Marcy,  Hurricane,  Bald  Knob,  and  on  the  other  side  of  the  Lake,  Snake  Mountain.

Day  trips  to  discover  the  glories  of  Vergennes,  Ausable  Chasm,  Fort  Ticonderoga,  Montreal  and  Lake  Placid  took  place.   And,  at  the  final  banquet,  much  like  those  enjoyed  at  Dudley  today,  Chief  spoke,  say-­ ing,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;It  is  not  the  programs  and  buildings  alone  that  make  Camp  successful.  It  is  the  spirit  and  the  traditions  that  make  Camp  Dudley  what  it  is.â&#x20AC;?

And  so  it  is  today  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  100  years  later.  Â

A beautiful and much larger garden peeks from behind the barn and awaits campers to come water, weed and eat what is grown. Hikes and paddling excursions to new and old sites await, and campers will be greeted with the friendly faces of alumni as well as some new (and more!) outdoor staff.

The brand-new challenge course (detailed in diagram above) offers opportunities to play meaningful games, practice problem solving skills with cabin and team groups, as well as have a thrilling good time. Built with the generous support of three generations of Dudley/Kiniya women, the opportunity for learning, fun and camaraderie that this new course offers Kiniya campers is truly amazing.

Father -­ Son Weekends

By Dudley Dad Bob McCann

To visit Camp Dudley in the middle of an Adirondack winter is a treat. I have done it with each of my four sons for the past 10 years as part of the Dudley Father-­Son weekend. The idea of the weekend is to introduce potential Cubs to the camp and build their enthusiasm for attending the following summer. The boys loved it…each and every one of them. Want to know a little secret? The fathers love it more.

Day #1: We arrive in Westport on Friday after dark. Pulling into a darkened, snow-­ covered campus and seeing MacLean fully lit and inviting is a wonderful start to the weekend. The fire is roaring, Matt and Davo are there to give a warm hello and one immediately smells dinner. The young cubs-­to-­be stand close to their fathers for about 2 minutes, then see a number of boys playing Foosball and ping pong and are off to the races. We stow our bags upstairs and watch a blur of boys, now dressed for the winter cold, run outside to play Manhunt or King of the Hill.

The fathers are left to affix a nametag and introduce themselves to everyone. With no mobile service, we all realize we will be untethered from our phones for three days. That’s when our smiles broaden and we sit happily by the fire and talk. For the new fathers, there are lots of questions asked and answered. For those lucky enough to return, it is a welcome respite from the daily grind. After dinner, our hosts lead a brief Vesper and we are encouraged to get some sleep because Saturday will be a day packed with activity.

Day #2: After a North Country breakfast, we listen to a Chapel Talk, which cap-­ tures our attention and makes you happy to be in the company of your son. The Dudley spirit begins to seep into each young boy (and father). As instructed, we dress in layers, arm ourselves with water and gorp, don snowshoes and hike out to Albany Island over a frozen solid Lake, before heading to a local hill for a hike which offers stunning views. At the summit, many of the older gang can be heard muttering for the need to “get to the gym” and be grateful that it is all downhill from here. The boys display boundless energy on the way up and down and always seem to be waiting for us to “hurry up!” By now, they are 100% sold on their Cub year and we are too! Lunch is followed by a mandatory rest period (Davo doesn’t have to tell us twice), and the boys relish this quiet time with their fathers. The afternoon ends in the cold gym, with the boys and some fit fathers, trying out the climbing wall, playing floor hockey and basketball. Finally, a spirited Fathers vs Sons Dodge Ball marathon ends the day. The fathers are there to win and the no-­

tion of a calm toss of the ball disappears with the opening whistle. While hiking, we complained about weak legs. Now, our throbbing arms re-­ mind us we are not as young as our opponents.

The dinner bell rings, we limp and they sprint to MacLean. The day ends with a wholesome din-­ ner and Vespers led by an older camper. The fire keeps us company and, before long, our sons are sitting next to us as weary as we are.

Day #3: Davo brings the Sunday papers and be-­ gins to prepare his world-­class brunch. The boys emerge from their beds in PJs (and bed heads) and immediately go to play with their new friends. We gather for an informal Sunday Service, where we are treated to a wonderful speaker and Dudley hymns. We all marvel at how fast the weekend has flown by and we didn’t miss our phones one bit. One more meal is served and the spirit of Camp Dudley has lassoed another bunch of eager campers for the summer.

Father and Son weekend had OHVVRQV IRU ERWK JHQHUDWLRQV

Driving away is always bittersweet. Each father is happy to have had an uninterrupted weekend with his son. As we all know, these are times to be cherished. We only wish it could have lasted one more day. Our boys regale us in all they did, what they learned and how they can’t wait to get back in the summer. On Parents’ Weekend, we will see them waiting for us, anxiously sitting on the hill, ready to tell us how much fun they have had.

No matter what the season, there is nothing better than Camp Dudley.

Winter Leadership Trip By #17676 Dylan Pollock

There is no better way to end a year than by going on the AL Winter Leadership trip! Our December expedition had 10-­graduated ALs, #16119 Marlon Fisher and myself, spending a week camping at Stacy. The group was part of a trail crew, went ice climbing, camped in the Ad-­ irondack Park, and still had time to dial in their leadership skills.

Four years ago #15509 Scott Steen developed the AL Winter Leadership trip. With the help of #15093 Ryan Joyce, the program started from Pine Lodge. The mission of the trip was to give $/V JDLQ DGGLWLRQDO OHDGHUVKLS VNLOOV ZKLOH RXW LQ WKH ZLOGHUQHVV 1RWH WKH VLPLODULW\ the boys another opportunity to have an experience EHWZHHQ WKLV SKRWR DQG RQH WDNHQ DERYH FLUFD ZKHQ &KLHI ZDV WKH GLUHFWRU SPRING 2014

such  as  the  Aides  and  sharpen  their  leadership  skills  before  the  summer  of  becoming  a  leader.  It  was  part  of  a  graduated  process  of  growth.  Steen  felt  the  mix  of  winter  sport  blended  with  leadership  development  was  just  the  right  environment.

THE Â CAMP Â DUDLEY Â NEWS

Each  day  the  group  was  broken  into  different  teams.  The  Leaders  of  the  Day  made  the  major  decisions  of  how  the  day  would  be  organized,  times  for  meals,  and  made  sure  that  the  group  was  prepared.  Cooking  groups  were  assigned  by  day,  and  at  night  a  pair  of  boys  would  give  a  Vesper.  From  the  beginning  to  the  end,  the  ALs  ran  the  trip,  and  that  was  the  beauty  of  it.             This  winter  trip  was  like  no  other.  For  the  second  year,  the  expedition  was  based  out  of  a  winterized  yurt  in  the  Stacy  wilderness.  Although  at  times  we  worked  hard,  it  was  all  fun.  The  first  day  in  Westport  we  joined  the  Champlain  Area  Trails  crew.  Recently,  Chris  Maron,  Director,  has  been  building  a  trail  that  will  connect  Westport  and  Essex.  We  spent  our  day  lopping  and  sawing  away  trees,  manicuring  the  beastly  wilderness  into  a  trail  that  could  be  a  new  Cub  hike.             On  the  second  day  we  met  two  guides  from  ADK  Rock  and  River  for  some  ice  climb-­ ing.  The  company  has  their  own  private  wall  we  climbed  the  entire  day  by  ourselves.  It  is  amazing  to  have  ice  axes  in  your  hands  and  spikes  on  your  feet.  Many  of  the  guys  stepped  out  of  their  comfort  zone,  finding  the  challenge  of  climbing  a  60-­foot  ice  wall.  It  was  incredible  to  see  how  they  were  willing  to  push  themselves.             Even  with  all  the  fun,  we  were  able  to  slow  down  and  have  a  Dudley  moment.  On  the  â&#x20AC;&#x153;down  dayâ&#x20AC;?  the  crew  spent  the  morning  wandering  a  snow-­covered  campus.  In  the  afternoon  Davo  made  a  guest  appearance.  The  rest  of  the  day  was  spent  discussing  leadership  and  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Leave  No  Traceâ&#x20AC;?  practices.             The  last  section  of  the  trip  was  a  day  and  a  half  in  the  Johns  Brook  Lodge  region  on  the  Adirondack  Park.  This  winter  the  park  was  covered  entirely  with  ice.  The  only  means  of  travel  was  with  crampons  (spikes  for  shoes).  In  the  late  afternoon  on  the  last  day  three  members  of  the  team  climbed  to  the  top  of  Lower  Wolfjaw  for  a  panoramic  view  of  the  park.  In  the  morning  everyone  packed  their  bags  and  hiked  out,  ready  to  spend  New  Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  with  their  friends  and  fam-­ ily.  After  lunch  and  the  returning  of  gear  the  trip  was  complete.             As  it  all  came  to  a  close,  I  thought  about  how  well  Dudley  integrates  leadership  train-­ ing  into  each  stage  of  camp.  Seniors  become  Aides,  each  year  learning  and  gaining  more  responsibility.  It  is  exciting  to  think  of  how  much  has  changed  since  I  was  a  Cub  back  in  1999,  and  wonder  where  it  will  be  10  years  down  the  line.  I  might  be  biased,  but  I  think  we  have  something  very  good  when  it  comes  to  our  wilderness  leadership  trips.

Kiniya  JL  Leadership  weekend Marnie,  Kat,  Mollie  and  summer  staffer  #20194  Mea-­ gan  Oliver  hosted  our  third  JL  Weekend  and  it  was  a  huge  success!  We  had  11  young  women  join  us  in  Westport  for  a  weekend  of  leadership  training  in  prepa-­ ration  for  their  first  summer  as  employees  of  Kiniya.  It  truly  felt  as  though  this  weekend  together  marked  the  beginning  of  Summer  2014.  Chef  Gail  prepared  our  $V FROG DV WKLV ZLQWHU ZDV LQ :HVWSRUW WKHVH KHDUW\ .LQL\D JLUOV ORYHG meals  and  our  beloved  Dining  Hall  songs  and  claps  were  rehearsed.  The  highlight  of  the  weekend  included  their  JL  leadership  experience.  snowshoeing  up  to  Yurt  Village  where  Lang  Fu  had  prepared  a  fire  for  us.  Each  and  every  JL  that  was  in  attendance  was  clearly  dedicated  to  her  upcoming  role  and  incredibly  enthusiastic  for  the  summer  ahead.  Yoha!

Mother/Daughter  Weekend March  has  become  a  very  special  time  of  year  for  Kiniya  as  we  welcome  several  different  groups  to  enjoy  some  time  together  in  Westport.  This  year  our  Mother/ Daughter  weekend  had  a  record  number  of  attendees  and  the  weather  could  not  have  been  more  perfect;  sun,  snow,  and  sunsets!  Saturday  was  filled  with  activi-­ ties,  camp  songs,  and  sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;mores,  a  snowshoe  trek  up  to  Yurt  Village  and  even  a  walk  on  Lake  Champlain.  Not  to  mention,  the  skill  level  of  friendship  bracelet  mak-­ ing  has  really  improved  over  the  last  few  years,  way  to  go  momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s!  It  is  incredible  to  watch  our  girls  in  their  element  of  Camp  and  share  some  of  our  traditions  with  their  momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.  Coming  off  this  wonderful  weekend  together,  we  are  counting  down  the  days  until  we  can  be  with  our  Camp  family  once  again! .LQL\D GDXJKWHUV ZLWK 0ROOLH OHIW DQG 0DUQLH ULJKW HQMR\HG WKHLU special  time  at  Dudley  with  their  mothers  in  late  March.

Leaders on the Lake

We asked Dudley and Kiniya leaders how they heard of Camp, their favorite memory, a little known fact about themselves, their favorite time of the day, their favorite meal, and what they were excited about for summer 2014.

#20410 ELENA LICURSI Bronxville, NY, Connecticut College

When I was eleven, a good friend applied to Kiniya. I begged my parents to send me too and the rest is history.

Watching a friend eat eleven corn dogs in one meal.

It was bold and deliciously impressive.

I can do “the worm” (a dance move).

The porch where all the leaders gather before meals. I’ve had Vespers there and the view is spectacular anytime.

After evening activity when the sun goes down!

Do seven layer bars count?

Another summer with so many people I adore and love.

Also to be a leader at the same time as my brother!

#18754 CONNER SMITH Westport, CT Georgetown University

Through my dad and grand dad. Camp was always on the docket for the Smith boys, and I was a Cub in 2002.

The Harry Potter manhunt in the summer of 2012. An outstanding cast of senior lead-­ ers created a fantastically wacky Extravaganza.

Everyone on my mom’s side is Amish. Two of my cousins used their Rumspringa to come to camp and experience life outside their community.

The boathouse! It’s a great blend of chaos and safety. I loved running the rowing program.

2nd whistle. The camp is still quiet, but I love knowing that we’re about to have the best day ever, and I can help make that happen.

Breakfast on Doughnut day. It may be early, but I’m not about to weigh sleep against fresh doughnuts!

Mind blowing extravaganzas, close championship games, coaching rowing, time at Brody, you name it!

#20412 CLAIRE LYNCH Westfield, NJ Kent Place School

The Bob McKeowns were neighbors and recommended Camp for my twin brother and me.

The Kiwi candle sendoff is a great memory. I feel com-­ pletely content when I walk into the water and place my candle on the lake.

I’m a Girl Scout—starting in kindergarten, and just earned my Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouts.

Definitely the Dining Hall!

Vespers. I have learned a lot about myself and others through Vespers…a great time to reflect on the day and get excited for the next.

Pizza Night, with fruit salad, and Caesar salad.

My 8th (double Kiwi) summer! I’m excited to be a role model in a community that has helped shape me so much! I can’t wait to use the new adventure course!

#21084 PAUL LICURSI Bronxville, NY University of Vermont

From my twin sister Elena, who attended Kiniya the year before.

As an aide, Hymn Sing fell on Independence Day. The energy was unbelievable ... I’ll never forget it!

A little known fact? hmmm . . . I have unbelievable dance skills.

North Point is my favorite place at camp.

Mornings are my favorite time. I wake knowing that I have another day in the best place on earth.

Best meal? Swedish meatballs.

I am most excited for 2014 Opening Day...to officially start camp.

riting  in  late  February,  I  eagerly  look  forward  to  longer  and  balmier  days  and  a  summer  of  fun  on  Lake  Champlain!  It  has  been  a  tough  winter  in  many  parts  of  the  country,  and  the  thought  of  the  hot  rocks  down  by  Swim  Point  serves  as  a  wonderful  antidote  to  these  cold  and  darker  days!  Dudleyites  have  been  getting  excited  about  their  up-­ coming  summers  since  1885.    Dudley  will  celebrate  its  130th  summer,  and  across  Lake  Champlain  in  Colches-­ ter,  VT,  Camp  Kiniya  will  begin  its  96th  season.  We  can  say  proudly  that  the  more  things  change,  the  more  they  remain  the  same.  While  there  are  many  exciting  changes  afoot  for  the  summer  of  2014,  more  impor-­ tantly,  Dudleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  motto  remains  unchanged  and  carries  as  much  weight  today  as  it  did  a  century  ago.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  Other  Fellow  Firstâ&#x20AC;?  is  a  life  standard  that  has  guided  over  23,500  Dudley  and  Kiniya  campers,  not  only  dur-­ ing  their  summers  of  fun  but  also  as  they  returned  to  their  communities.

100  years  ago,  Director  Chief  Beckman  greeted  the  leadership  team  and  arriving  campers  to  the  1914  season  saying,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;What  a  glorious  Camp  we  should  have  this  summer!   With  the  carpenter  shop  and  the  new  Avery  boat  house  available  and  the  extensive  program  planned  for  this  yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Camp,  Dudley  should  experi-­ ence  the  best  season  in  its  entire  history!â&#x20AC;?   Chief  Beck-­ manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  enthusiasm  of  a  century  ago  is  echoed  today  by      Directors  Matt  Storey  and  Marnie  McDonagh,  as  they  anticipate  the  arrival  of  over  1,000  campers.  We  all  believe  that  this  will  be  â&#x20AC;&#x153;the  best  summer  yet!â&#x20AC;?

As  we  approach  the  summer  of  2014,  we  are  confident  that:

Annual Giving at Dudley

#10555 Dave Langston, Development Director

T

he Annual Fund Campaign is the centerpiece of the development efforts here at Camp Dudley YMCA, Inc. Your generous support of the Annual Fund last year helped more than 250 Dudley boys and Kiniya girls have the summer of their lives on the banks of Lake Champlain, in Westport and Colchester. Without your gift, they would have missed out on the joy of Dudley.

While unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund are predominantly used for scholarship (75.5%) the Fund is flexible enough to be used for operational expense priorities such as leader/staff training and development, immedi-­ ate facility costs and related program expenses.

The ethic of giving back to Dudley can be traced all the way to our founder, Sumner F. Dudley, who was described by Camper #1 George Peck as, “A man who knew no limit in doing for others. He would impoverish himself for those in whom he was interested…he was the most self-­sacrificing man I have ever known. The spirit that characterized his life is what we know as the Dudley Spirit.”

That same Dudley Spirit, which Sumner Dudley personified, led to Camp’s offer-­ ing a scholarship program as long ago as 1934, when we know from our history that “A scholarship fund of $784 will benefit 24 boys this summer.”

We are grateful to the more than 1600 individuals and organizations that sup-­ ported the Annual Fund by contributing more than $927,000 in fiscal year 2012-­ 13. Thank You! This broad base of contributors who support our Annual Fund with gifts ranging from $0.50 to $100,000 is truly impressive. We could not do our critically important work without the generous financial support of our Board of Managers, alumni, parents, leaders, staff, friends and so many others.

Our challenge now, in 2014, is to boost the number of individuals who we can count on to support the Annual Fund. That’s one reason why staying connected and helping your friends be in touch with Camp is so very important. The 2013-­2014 Annual Fund drive has been called “The 1885 Donor Challenge.” Our goal is to report at least that number of Annual Fund supporters to the entire community when our year ends in September.

Because you are connected, you know the value of our scholarship program, the quality of our leaders and the great condition of our campuses. Your gift makes that excellence possible! Please use the envelope enclosed in this magazine or go online now (www.campdudley.org/givenow) to make your gift today as the start of the 130th season is fast approaching. Thank you for being part of this faithful community.

Sincerely, #10555 Dave Langston dave@campdudley.org SPRING 2014

Working  with  the  Finance  Committee  of  the  Board  of  Managers,  we  budgeted  for  â&#x20AC;&#x153;break  evenâ&#x20AC;?  this  year  on  revenues  of  approximately  $4.3  million.  Our actual revenue experience reflected: Â&#x2021; +LJKHU WKDQ H[SHFWHG UHYHQXH DOORZLQJ 'XGOH\ in  Westport  to  post  a  budget  surplus  in  excess  of  $300,000.  This  in  turn  was  based  on; Â&#x2021; 7KH VWURQJ 'HYHORSPHQW HIIRUWV RI 'DYH /DQJVWRQ and  Dawn  Gay,  and  tremendous  support  from  the  Dudley  family,  resulting  in  a  record  year  for  annual  giving,  and Â&#x2021; 7XLWLRQ UHYHQXHV H[FHHGLQJ RXU IRUHFDVW DV WKH demand  for  Camper  and  Aide  positions  continued  to  grow  and  as  we  budgeted  annual  increases  in  the  3%  range.  Our  NOLS  (National  Outdoor  Leadership  School)  and  German  Exchange  revenue  were  â&#x20AC;&#x153;right  on  track.â&#x20AC;?   We  also  experienced  higher  revenue  than  budgeted  for  our  off-­season  programming.

Utility costs were down due to the relatively mild winter as well as our switch to propane as the pri-­ mary heating source for Maclean Lodge. That said, we expect our utility costs to be much higher this year with the northern American cold wave.

Our budget surplus was used to make the final payment for the Bank Stabilization (Erosion Control) Project, which was deferred by the Contractor from FY2012, as well as the pending Solar Project for Beckman Hall and some potential new uses being considered by the Camp Dudley Board of Managers.

Camp Dudley at Kiniya, Colchester ,iÛi ÕiÃ\ Kiniya now has revenues of approximately $1.7 million.

As with Camp Dudley in Westport, higher than expect-­ ed revenue resulted in a budget surplus of slightly more than $60,000. Most of the increase can be attributed to the record setting year for Annual Giving as well as higher than expected miscellaneous revenue.

Expenses: Overall expenses ran true to form with the exception of slight increases in staff development training, food costs and utilities costs (our propane vendor sold out and the new vendor raised our prices significantly before we were able to switch). Development expenses were lower than expected due to the same reasons listed for Camp Dudley in Westport.

Funds from the surplus were used to offset additional costs of capital projects.

The Beckman Society

he Beckman Society is named in honor of #310 Herman C. “Chief” Beckman, who envisioned camp as an ongoing and vibrant legacy.

Members of the Beckman Society share that ideal and through their planned gifts assure that future generations of young men and women will thrive at Dudley and Kiniya.

Society members reached 60. Since then, we have welcomed additional friends, broadening support across all generations of Dudleyites. As of February 28, 2014 our membership stood at 76. A remark-­ able accomplishment!

News & Notes #5080 Bob Shaw, Delmar, NY, reported that he became a great grandfather in October 2013. Amelia Grace may be the next in a long line of Shaw descen-­ dants to attend Dudley or Kiniya. Bob is recovering from a broken collarbone but at 96 is doing just fine.

He was at camp in 1934, worked on the K-­Crew and remembers the tents around the main campus. #6208 Les Cizek, Fort Bragg, CA, was awarded “best turning” at the Sonoma County Woodworking show for his bowl, “Sparky,” which he donated to last sum-­ mer’s Dudley auction. Photos of the bowl and show will appear in Fine Woodworking magazine. #6439 Carol “Chick” Lyttle still resides in Roswell, GA, with wife Lynn. Chick recently recounted the story about how he became “marooned” in the Atlanta ice storm for 13 hours, all because he wanted to go out and get a sandwich for lunch. The story ends well and is a testament to the fact that you never know when you’ll need to use those survival skills practiced during Dudley wilderness trips. Ed. Note: We seem to recall that WKH VDPH WKLQJ KDSSHQHG LQ RQ &KLFN¶V ILUVW KLNH LQWR the High Peaks! #6766 Harvey Monroe, reports that he has moved to a retirement community in Albuquerque, NM. #6867 Jack Benfield, Pawleys Island, SC, just turned eighty and though he says he can’t remember what he did yesterday, he can remember all his years at Dudley with great pleasure. #7083 Michael Poler, Rowayton, CT, who, despite weekly choir practice at church, STILL showed up for the Darien Reunion, but had to leave before the low number award for the evening was announced. With a low 7000 number, Mike could just about feel that brand new Dudley shirt coming his way. But alas, duty called, and he went to practice. Getting home afterwards, he immediately called his son Tim, who told him that the low number award went to a #11212.

Outraged, Mike went directly to the Director, with an email that said, “Matt: What was #7083, chopped liver?” The Director quickly approved an appropriate

sartorial honorarium for Michael. #7211 Steve Muller, from Lancaster, MA, reported in December that he had just turned 80! Another Dudley-­ ite joins the Octogenarian Club! Way to go Steve! #7234 Lee Gammill, Ross, CA, wrote, “All is going well in California. I understand Camp Dudley is just as great as ever. One of these days I will get back there again. Jane and my grandchildren are in love with their respective camps. I miss the East Coast from time to time but right now I am down in sunny Indian Wells, southern CA, playing a lot of golf and trying to stay out of trouble.” Gams #7370 Tom Crowe, Canton, GA, reported at the Atlanta “Old Boys” gathering in February that his relocation to greater Atlanta, from Bonita Springs, FL, is pretty much complete. “Carol and I have five grown children and seven grandkids that we get to spend time enjoying.” #7582 Stu Updike, Madison, WI, reports that the DEXCOM company he formed with brother #8276 Charlie and the late #6077 Don Tredwell is doing well. DEXCOM is a bio-­ medical technology company that produces a product that allows diabetic patients to receive a constant read out of medical information that can be lifesaving. Stu would be glad to provide more information to any interested Dudleyites. #7593 Tom Walton, Queensbury, NY, had not only his 50th wedding anniversary with his wife #14593 Judy last summer, 7KH :DOWRQ IDPLO\ FHOHEUDWLRQ but also his 75th birthday.

Tom, who still looks like he’s a 21-­year-­old Dudley leader, assembled his entire family for celebratory SPRING 2014

This year, Tom and his wife Judith are leaving for an 18-­month service project to the North Adriatic Croatian Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-­Day Saints, as Tom says, “replacing fear with faith.” #8612 Pete Trowbridge, Sr., Gilbert, AZ, and brother #7716 Tom Trowbridge, Orinda, CA, made it to the 2013 camp reunion, playing in the George Nelson Golf outing at Westport C.C.

Frank reported that he still serves as a “glorified camp counsellor” in his duties as a faculty member at Westmin-­ ster. Frank has had a great Frank Finsthwait run at Westminster, where he has taught, coached and advised, starting in 1967.

#8665 Mike McCutcheon, Ephraim, WI, reported in from the deep freeze of Wisconsin’s winter that he con-­ tinues to fight fires with his Ephraim Fire Department, including a doozie on Christmas day.

Said the 2EVHUYHU, all summer long!

“As a teenager in the Champlain Valley of New York, Adam Hainer sold vegetables from his home garden at a farmers market.

But he didn’t imagine farming could ever provide his livelihood until he met Melody Horn, his future part-­ ner, at a now-­defunct micro-­greens farm. They wound up starting Juniper Hill Farm in 2007 on land his grandfather once farmed along the Bouquet River near the Essex County hamlet of Wadhams.” Adam and Melody started with three acres and now have 20 acres of certified naturally grown vegetables and flowers in operation. Two years ago, Hainer tried a new twist on the CSA model by setting up a workplace delivery program, focusing on larger employers to the south in the Glens Falls and Saratoga Springs areas as well as to the north in Plattsburgh. Attend a farmers market in Elizabethtown or Keene Valley this summer and you’ll

THE CAMP DUDLEY NEWS

Lizzie (Long) Lang, Brooklyn, NY, (Kiniya 1995 – 2002), has co-­founded a not-­for-­profit company called KITE (Kids Inspiring Tomorrow’s Education). KITE’s mission is to break barriers in education by providing students around the world with supplies for success.

“KITE decided to start our supply line with pencils.

Although pencils may seem inconsequential to most, they are a hugely understated necessity, unavailable to

millions of children. A charter teacher in Zimbabwe said it best, ‘a pencil is like a jewel and this could be shared by two students; an eraser is like a diamond.’”

Lizzie wrote: “A few weeks ago, Emily Blair, co-­founder, and I drove down to Baltimore to deliver our first round of pencil donations to KUVA, Kipp Ujima Vil-­ lage Academy. We had 470 pencil packs and sharpeners in tow and an eagerness to get to the school that for months had been just a name we recited as KITE’s do-­ mestic pilot partner. Our efforts were finally coming to fruition, and when walking down the school’s hallways, painted with colorful, bold words, ‘excellence,’ ‘reach,’ ‘college bound,’ feelings of inspiration and a sense of peace came over me. As 86% of KUVA’s students come from families living below the poverty line, these are the words they live, walk and breathe. Equipping these kids with motivational tools, as well as literal tools is key in order to succeed in their education and break out of this cycle of poverty. It was in that moment where I said to myself, this is why KITE was started. Our visit with the school where we spent time with the students and distributed the pencils validated that feeling times 100.

Principal Lucas made our time extra special, providing us the opportunity to share KITE with a small group of 8th graders and get their feedback on our work. They too shared KIPP (‘Knowledge Is Power Program’) with us and proudly rendered KIPP’s seven strengths that build a student’s character — zest, self-­control, curiosity, optimism, grit, social intelligence and gratitude. It was an exciting and invigorating moment that confirmed -­-­ kids have all the potential in the world. Today, we are proud to report we have passed our pilot with flying colors. We are so grateful for all of the support we have received in our very humble beginnings, and all the more motivated to continue building and learning, collaborating and innovating, and hopefully, inspiring others.”

Phil Longo (father of Kiniya Leader #20859 Liz Lon-­ go), Bedford NY, met Lizzie Lang for the first time at an Art Show where she was selling Kite pencils. The Longo’s have known Lizzie’s parents, Terri and Nelson, for many years but Phil noted, “It was great to finally meet Lizzie!” He added, “My Elizabeth is totally into her service and mission. We laugh at home about the similarities between our Liz and Lizzie Lang – they are

both Kiniya girls, both grew up in Bedford, and with a similar name and common interests! That’s one to add to the ‘small world’ department. We’ll see you in just a few months. If we ever see the grass again!”
