10 YEARS TIME CAPSULE This summer we celebrated the 10th summer Kiniya has been a part of the Dudley Family.

To mark this milestone, we created a time capsule.

The silver box sat at the base of our Chapel Talk Podium in the Kiniya Dining Hall for the entire last week of 2nd session and over these 7 days it became filled with notes, drawings, poems, and treasures from members of our 2015 community.

On the last day of 2nd session, the Time Capsule was buried.

Marnie was joined by campers and leaders in front of the Welcome Center as they carefully laid the box into position.

As campers filled in the hole with dirt by hand, Marnie read :

“A LOVE LETTER TO OUR FUTURE SELVES” Dear Kiniya Community of 2025, We are celebrating our 10th summer as a part of the Camp Dudley Family and wanted to leave you with some of our treasures to discover 10 years from now.

In front of the Welcome Center, exactly 2 feet from the front of the deck, to the left of the Welcome Sign, you will find a wooden box buried 3 feet underground.

Please unearth and open this box on the first Sunday of the summer. It is filled with notes and messages from our hearts to yours. In addition, there are some treasures and some crafts, which we created. We hope you will enjoy our treasures and we hope some of us are still here to see them again!

WE LOVE CAMP AND WE KNOW THAT YOU DO TO! Please savor every moment of your summer. Time passes by quickly here and before you know it, you’ll be heading back to your homes, your communities, and your schools.

May Your Life in this world be a happy one!

Love from Marnie and the Kiniya Community of 2015.

10 YEARS

For 131 years, living rooms across the country and world have been filled at this time of year with stories about summers at Dudley.

Men and boys found connections over shared traditions and memories that transcend generations and withstand the test of time.

For the first time in Dudley’s history, this past decade has brought the voices of girls to these same conversations and in doing so, strengthened the connections between father and daughter, brother and sister, grandparent and granddaughter. But it’s done more than just strengthen connections within families. The Dudley-Kiniya partnership has strengthened our entire community and the values we hold dear.

This summer we’ve spent a lot of time looking back – recognizing and appreciating where we’ve come from and those who’ve come before us.

We’ve done so with tremendous enthusiasm for the promise of a bright future and would like to mark this moment in time by thanking Camp Dudley.

THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF FRIENDSHIP THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF SONG THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF SHARED VISION THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF GENEROSITY THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF LEADERSHIP As we stand thankful at the end of our camp season, we say farewell to the laughter, cheers and pounds on the dining hall table after meal times.

Conversations have returned to living rooms as our boys and girls recount their summer stories to their families. Connections across generations will continue to strengthen as the new memories are shared with the old. And for now, it’s wonderful to know that countless girls can proclaim “It’s my turn!” because Kiniya is a place for all generations of girls to grow and thrive!

We will forever be grateful to Camp Dudley, for having the vision and wisdom to include girls in our mission – creating an experience with a foundation of kindness and love.

It is for all of these reasons and many more that we award the 2015 Dedication of the Kiniya Spirit to Camp Dudley!

CHAPEL TALKS #19231 Kari McKinley

Of all the music we sing, I think I can say without argument, that the most powerful is the hour every Sunday evening when we come together to sing at the top of our lungs and then transition into a period of reflection and calm.

And that’s the music I’d like to talk about today; our most magical of traditions: Hymn Sing. And even more specifically, the Final Five. These are songs that have been very important to me over the years. They also hold deep meaning to many of our friends who may not have the good fortune of being able to come to camp anymore. When I decided on this topic, I wrote to some of those friends to ask them about their experiences with the Final Five, so you’ll hear some of their names and thoughts here as well.

The first hymn I wanted to talk about is You’ll Never Walk Alone: How many of you have ever felt lonely?

Maybe not even physically lonely, but maybe you were having a rough day and felt so alone in that feeling, like no one else could get it? We all have those days. For me, as an adult, I have those feelings fairly frequently because of the responsibility that comes with being an adult. There are difficult decisions to make: whether it’s at work, finances, what will happen in the future, the loss of people. When these tough moments and days come, this song becomes my mantra. As I sing or hum it to myself the calm that comes over me is palpable, meaning someone standing close to me could physically feel my relief if they tried. You all are not adults, but you will still have tough days, right? Maybe you’ve lost a pet, maybe you lost that all-important ipod, maybe you bickered with a friend, maybe you just woke up and were sad for no clear reason. When you have those moments, you too can sing this song to yourself and feel that relief as a weight is lifted from you.

Feeling lonely sometimes requires finding a larger power and force than people can provide. Music is one of those

58

things. But sometimes music alone isn’t enough. This brings me to the next hymn: One Light. When I sing and hear this song, my mind goes beyond humans and pulls me into a more spiritual place.

Over the years I spent at Dudley and Kiniya I came to learn that two concepts I thought were interchangeable are actually, despite their similarities, quite different. These ideas are religion and spirituality. Religion is, and I’m quoting our old pal, Merriam-Webster, “an organized system of beliefs, ceremonies, and rules used to worship a god or a group of gods”. Spirituality on the other hand can be “of or relating to religion or religious beliefs” but it can also mean, “of or relating to a person’s spirit” or “ having similar values and ideas : related or joined in spirit.”

So, being spiritual means connecting to something and feeling the power that influences your inner being. For me, I believe in this--I believe in nature, I believe in “The Other Fellow First”, I believe in connecting with people. And I love how the song “One Light” is symbolic of that. You have the One light, which to me represents nature and it speaks of “One Lord” which symbolizes religion. It can be understood by people with different beliefs. At camp we can all sit together and sing beautiful songs that may or may not be religious to either us or the group as a whole, but we are connected on such a spiritual level. It’s an amazing thing. I hope when you leave camp you remember this hymn and are able to spread our belief- “The Other Fellow First”- a belief that can unite people from all religious and spiritual backgrounds.

The third hymn is “Climb Every Mountain.” With this hymn, there’s the obvious message of working hard to get to your happy place. But we’re going to talk about another meaning it has. I was talking just a minute ago about how

Kari McKinley

small feats for leaders are often challenges for campers.

Well, for my friend who used to work here and ran the Outdoors’ program, Bethany Silva, climbing mountains was that achievement. For Bethany motivating campers up the the Green Mountains was where she felt most inspired to be a leader. Bethany wrote to me about how “Climb Every Mountain” is a reminder that although she was a seasoned hiker long before working at Kiniya, it was coming here and planning trips for you all that gave her insight into the power of hiking and adventuring in the outdoors. It was seeing the mountains through the eyes of the campers that allowed her to see how the challenges, perseverance, and stewardship allowed her to put The Other Fellow First.

When Bethany wrote to me and used the word stewardship, it reminded me of the set of core values that Kiniya has. It’s a great word that I don’t hear often enough. Does anyone here know the definition of stewardship? “The activity or job of protecting and being responsible for something.

The careful and responsible management of something entrusted to one’s care.” Nature and the resources it provides are our responsibility. We can no longer live on the planet and consume without considering the effects that consumption has on Mother Nature. Being at camp, living in a space where we respect the land, enjoying the benefits of environmental recreation through our outdoors program, allows you a unique perspective on how important it is to protect the earth. You will return home next week, many of you to suburbs or cities where there is an abundance of concrete, malls, man-made materials all around you. By recalling the hymn Climb Every Mountain, I hope you are able to look at your day to day life in society and pick out some areas in which you may not be living as responsibly as you could be when it comes to protecting our natural resources. Remember the definition of stewardship and make minor adjustments so that you can live up to that responsibility. You will be living the Other Fellow First with the other fellow being both future generations and Mother Nature herself. It’s possible saving the environment will be the dream some of you are searching for.

Despite being the wonderful people I know you all are, it is without a doubt that we will all have times when we veer from the core values we’ve developed at camp. We will have days where we make decisions that we regret. We may have a disagreement with loved ones, we may not put the Other Fellow First, we may not be as environmentally conscious as we’d like. The fact is, you can’t grow and become a better person if you don’t have those moments.

During these periods, remember the final hymn we sing

at camp. “Now the Day is Over” can serve as a reminder to you that everyday is a new day. And in the most literal interpretation, when you go to sleep and wake up again, you are given a new day and with a new day, there are new beginnings. “Then may I arise, pure and fresh and sinless.”

If only that were the case, but to be fair, you will arise and when you do, you can learn from the mistakes you made in the previous days and in that sense you are more pure and fresh and sinless. Progress is the important part here and the fact is that progress isn’t always a clean process. But you have to be forgiving to yourself and take away lessons from days that don’t go well. This will help you be a leader.

This brings me to the last hymn, ‘Neath the Pines, which is extremely special to me because of the writer. This song not only represents camp as a whole so perfectly, but it’s also an inspiration. I’m sure that if we could bring back the Bear who was with us her first year at Kiniya, she never would have predicted she’d write a song that will forever be a part of camp. Yet her love for music and camp, along with her talents for piano, allowed her to compose this precious song. This song represents the opportunity camp provides for young children and young adults to leave their mark.

Let it also be a reminder of the home you will always have even if you’re feeling lost or having trouble fitting in elsewhere. Nick wrote to me that the recurrence of the word “home” in the song is apt as there are few places where you can feel connected and supported by so many people with no thought paid to differences, like income, cultural nuances, religion, and other social divisions, that are often so evident outside of camp. ‘Neath the Pines is a memento of this second home that will always be here for you.

By being a member of the Kiniya and Dudley family, you are now connected to thousands of other people. And it’s true, our experiences will all be completely different, but what we have in common is this wonderful tradition of music. We all share the Final Five and the ideals they can represent: we are here for each other, we accept all kinds of people from different religions and cultures, we are stewards of our earth, we all make mistakes, but we learn and grow from them, and as leaders we help others in this process as well, and we will always have this beautiful place to create new friends and memories. Enjoy your last week at camp and sing your hearts out.

Each and every summer here at camp I see many wonderful experiences and incredible memories taking place.

Everything from learning new skills, to embracing weird hidden talents on the Kiniya stage, to pushing ourselves to try different elements on the Challenge Course. But one of my favorite experiences from this summer so far, was on first session parent’s day about a week ago. We were all welcoming our parents back on to campus after a memorable 3 and half weeks. While watching many families reunite, out of the corner of my eye, I saw two older dads running to one another from across the field and embracing in a fierce manly hug.

on and we celebrate our 10th summer as Camp Dudley at Kiniya (YOHA), expanding our mission to not only influence the lives of boys but also the lives of girls. There is a remarkable full circle transition happening between generations and it has been amazing to watch a new found appreciation for Kiniya and all it offers by these older Dudley-ites.

The two of them almost in tears, reuniting for the first time in many many years, both at Camp Kiniya for the first time dropping their own daughters off.

They laughed together and were reminded of many old memories they once shared at their beloved Camp Dudley. After a very touching reunion, their own two daughters ran up and to their surprise, had met this year at Kiniya and had become close friends over the summer. As I watched this moment take place I was reminded of the incredible impact Dudley has made on the lives on many of our fathers, grandfathers, uncles, and brothers.

My grandfather, Willie Schmidt, camper #7405, continually supported the opportunity for Dudley to expand their mission to include a girl’s camping experience. He served as the Camp Director, much like Marnie, for 20 years and had 4 boys of his own and 1 daughter. Their family, my dad included, spent many memorable summers at Dudley but our aunt Beth was never fully included. She would never be a camper at Dudley like her brothers and while she worked on staff for many summers, she was never able to have that full camper experience. As the Schmidt family aged and then had families of their own, we ended up with 1 boy cousin and 8 girl cousins. Grandpa Willie instantly saw the need for his granddaughters to share in the Dudley experience and his tireless support is what has led myself and many Schmidt cousins to our wonderful girls camp.

Many older Dudley-ites have come through Cady Cabin each summer to drop off their youngest girls for the first time at Kiniya, leaving them with myself as their first Kiniya Leader. There is always a very special moment when that dad or grandfather discovers that MY OWN FATHER was actually THEIR cubby leader THEIR first year at Dudley, about a million years ago, and now I am their own daughters leader. As the summers continue

As I reflect on the support and encouragement gained from our grandfather to start a girl’s camp and I remember all the incredible memories from the past ten years here at Camp Dudley at Kiniya, we are truly the luckiest girls around.

While others may have protested a girls camp in the past, amazing men and women stood up for the Kiniya girls and have changed the lives of future female leaders across the world.

Here at camp we are part of something bigger than ourselves. Some of us are part of a long lasting camp legacy full of grandparents, fathers, and mothers who have been at camp. And some of us are just beginning our own legacy by being the first generations of campers this summer.

Together we are all celebrating ten years together and we need to make this summer count. We cannot plan out all the days of our summer but instead need to embrace the outstanding opportunities we have here at camp. Each and every day we will strive to do your absolute best, give it our all, and remember to have fun because in 20 plus years you could be the old mom running across the campus to reunite with your long last friends of today.

Together we are all celebrating ten years together and we need to make this summer count. We cannot plan out all the days of our summer but instead need to embrace the outstanding opportunities we have here at camp.

I don’t know if this is obvious or not, but I’m not exactly what most people would call a “girly girl”. While you would definitely find my two sisters doing each other’s make up, or playing dress up, that’s not what you would find me doing.

My favorite things to do when I was younger were far from playing with Barbie’s. They included digging up worms and scooting around my neighborhood finding road kill to poke with sticks. Yup, I actually did that.

Because I was never focused so much on what I looked like, or interested in what other girls my age were doing, I was often the outcast. Growing up around my sisters strong interest in beauty made me feel especially different.

They would spend hours in the bathroom getting ready for any occasion and always made us late to everything. Meanwhile, I had no problem throwing on basketball shorts and a t-shirt, one that was 2 sizes too big for me, and calling it a day.

Because I was the way I was, I often found myself assigned the role of the football star in every Taylor Swift dance I’ve ever been a part of and on the rare occasions when I was forced to put on a dress, it often took people by surprise.

If I had a dollar for every time I heard “I didn’t know you owned dresses”, I would be a very rich girl. I’ve never really been bothered by these comments because I am perfectly content with who I am. Just as when my sister decided to pursue her interest in beauty and become a cosmetologist, my family supported her.

I’ve always had the stereotype that I was less feminine than other girls just because I didn’t have an interest in fashion and makeup.

And let me tell you, my parents calling me “their favorite son”, and playing on the boys soccer team, didn’t exactly help either.

62

Sarah Thomann

Over the years, my sisters have gotten over me refusing to be their model, and have come to appreciate all of my interests and the things that I am passionate about. It’s clear that my sisters and I are different types of girls; however, we both have mutual respect for each other and understand that neither one of us is better than the other.

I believe that every girl in this room is their own unique type of girl. Even if your interests include hair, makeup, sports, or anything else, you are no less than the person sitting next to you. I’ve learned to embrace the type of girl I am and I am so happy with who I have become. So, whether you want to wear dresses every day of your life, or a backwards mets hat, you are your own form of girl. Everyone should embrace who they are, and who their friends and family are, because there is no one character that is better than the other.

As Dr. Suess said; “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than you”.

SENIORS LET ME CLEAR MY THROAT…

To tell you the truth, its nearly impossible for me to type these words without screaming aloud myself or inevitably reminded of the booming cacophony of sound that comes from all of you when we do our Senior cheers. I miss cheering and singing and screaming so much with all of you, it makes studying for midterms in the silent library here at school rather unbearable. So for all of you I give to you the Soundtrack of Our Summer, a mix-tape of all the happy wonderful memories we shared together on the shores of Lake Champlain.

Soundtrack to Our Kiniya Summer 2015 • 05546! Morning Dips, Hey Kiwi Disks • Deep silence across the lake during a stellar summer sunset “Can Dominoes deliver to our cabin?”

• An Endless loop of songs from the Lilo and Stitch soundtrack during our Senior Luau Ganza!

• Shouts of “JURY DUTY!” and the other unfortunate proclamations of impending adulthood at our Game of Life Ganza • “How long until we reach the top?” followed by “WHOA THIS IS SO COOL” on Senior Overnight Hikes • Squeals of anxious delight when you pull the rope on the Giant Swing and fly through the air • The controlled chaos that occurs when someone yells, BIRDY ON A PERCH! • Creative cheers that echo across the campus even when you can’t rhyme your team name (Orange Door hinge I’m looking at you) • The excited whispers of watching our lanterns float in the night sky during our last nights at camp And of course the bonus track, “If you find your far away from Kiniya girls who hold you dear, close your eyes, hear the soft, sweet whisper… beckons us home to its shores” Much Love and YOHA!
