Hello all!

It was a brutal task. Driven like galley slaves by CCAA President Ann Krannitz to work long into the night, and a couple of time she quite literally flayed the clothes off our backs, but we have completed the second CCAA Board of Directors meeting. We have made excellent progress and I feel like we are ahead of the best-case time line I expected for founding our organization!

There is a lot going on at camp this year. It has never been more critical that we get involved physically, financially, and spiritually at the camp this year. Check in on www.chancoonce frequently. Sign-in when you do it so we can tell members from surfers.

--Mr. Secretary

Highlights of the meeting:

1. We are organizing a work weekend at the camp to get it ready for the summer. Dates June 9th -15. If you are like me you have the "camp jones" this time of year. Come on out that week and pitch-in. More to be posted on the CCAA page soon: Jobs, tools necessary, materials, expertise and etc..

2. Alumni Reunion! Oct 10th - 12th. Camp has been there for 40 years. (Yes, you are THAT old) Be there or be square. And I do mean you too Linda Ryder.

3. Two newly formed committees you might join:

First is the finance committee. Get involved with our fund raising policy, planning, and execution. Help serve your fellow alums by raising money for our favorite camp. There is a lot to do and we need help. Chairman of the committee is Chuck Alley. To join just click to join the CCAA-finance mailing list (follow the mailing list link in the left column) or send me an email.

Second is the Alumni - Current Staff Liaison committee. AKA Chanco Chums committee. This is chaired by Phillip Bond. His idea is to have alums adopt current staff members as Chanco Chums. Support them, send them stuff to get them singing at lunch and etc. Interested? We should have a mailing list for you to join up sometime today. As above keep and eye on the mailing list page for CCAA-chums. Join and made a real difference for a current staff member this summer!
