 I was 11 years old, and a chubby, pink-cheeked, dorky little camper with a weird English accent the first year I went to Chanco ('87) and was sooooo scared to have to stay overnight at this weird place in the woods where I didn't know anyone (the OLD chanco... just to date myself a little)  continue reading »

This is so exciting!  I have been thinking about Chanco and all the people I've known, and wondered where you all are, and what's going on, and how I can get back to visit, but I didn't know about this website until today!  I was a camper from 1987-1991, then was a sailing instructor with Will Cline in 1992, taught sailing and did some out trips (Mariners, Grand Adventure, New Horizens) in 1993 and 1994.  I think college (VT) stress got the best of me the last year and I got a "real job" over the summer.   continue reading »

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 fellow alums. 

 I was a camper back when muck mouth was a real impedement to flirting at free swim.  I somehow managed to avoid to avoid stepping on a clam shell until John Gulick and I did it simultaniously during Grunt week 1995.  I read on Blue Gums posting, that he thinks someone else tells his story better.  Well that may be true, but I am pretty sure that I have come the closest to actually catching children on fire with my special "White Gas Finale."  continue reading »

What a great site!  It is wonderful to hear how everyone is doing and recollect forgoten memories...As for me, I am living in Boone, NC and working as a high school counselor.  I have three beautiful, happy, healthy daughters!  Adali (6 months), Penley (21 months) and Scout (9 years).  Scout went to first session last summer and had a BLAST!  She cried all the way home and sang to us every song she had learned!  I guess the Chanco spirit is still going strong...
