I was a camper from 1996 - 1999 and Staffed as a Lifeguard in 2000. I attended a couple Happenings and October weekends too.  I have been married for 5 years to a wonderful guy, Dave and live just outside Tampa, Florida. I have a gorgeous daughter named Charlotte who is almost 3. I hope someday to be able to share Chanco with my husband and daughter, as I'm sure they would love it.

A Treasured Champion for Chanco

I would like to take the time to recognize a person who is a cornerstone of Chanco history. He has been a part of the camp and then conference center for years. He actually has the longest consistent involvement with Chanco with the exception of probably Charlie Hughes. His influence spans several decades and he has touched the lives of Chanco campers, staff members, parishioners in every convocation within our diocese, and far beyond.

 Bill Taylor started coming to Chanco as a camper/conferee in the early 1970s. He quickly gained a reputation as easy-going and fun-loving and was one of those kids who seemed to have found a true home among the people and programs at Chanco. This was the time in his life when he heard the guiding voice of God. Inspired by the clergy and community he experienced, Bill answered the call to devote his life to Christ as a clergy in the Diocese of Southern Virginia.  continue reading »

Hello Chanco!

I first came to Chanco for an EYC October Weekend in 1997 and fell in love. After going to more retreats and Happenings, I attended the Sr. High Conference in 2000 (Love the Mark 3 girls) and was a counselor on staff from 2001-2003. I absolutely loved the job and hope all my campers are doing well.  I still wish I could take off and spend my summer in the woods!  continue reading »

My first memory of Chanco comes from a wonderful photo of myself and two friends (Stephen Adams and former counselor Charlie Biesecker) outside the dining hall of "Old Chanco" at a 1987 parish retreat. As far as I know, it's still on my mother's fridge. I was a camper from 1995-2000, including avery mischievous time on the Bike Trip and one very, very wet Grand Adventure. I was a camp counselor in 2000 and again in 2001, with one session pinch-hitting as a Nature instructor.  continue reading »

I was a camper from 91- 94, and initiated at one of the only Jr. High initiations... I took a break from camp for a few years, and then came back during college as a counselor, dance teacher, nature teacher, archery instructor, etc.... I pretty much covered all the bases.... I graduated from Longwood College (before it was a University) and have been teaching 4th and 5th grade for the past 7 years. Now I am on the Happening committee, and my am recently married to my wonderful husband Justin, who will be helping with outtrips this summer.   continue reading »
