It has quickly become apparent to me with all of the alumni checking in and sharing information, a Coppercreek Alumni blog is necessary. I have greatly enjoyed hearing from people from the decades past and catching up with their lives. I believe I am now the only person left that spans all the generations of camp. Oh, don't worry! Mike Lindskog is still alive and well, flying jets out of Houston but he hasn't worked at camp in many years now. Matt Evarts is a firefighter/ paramedic in Salinas and still spends quite a bit of time up at camp visiting but he also hasn't worked at camp for the last 10 years or so. So, that leaves me. I am feeling a little dated these days though when campers who were under my care as a counselor are now having children. Yikes! I plan on sharing information here from people who attended Coppercreek as campers, staff and family campers. I will also start to pull out the old photos from the 1960's, 70's, 80's, 90's and the 2000's, scan them and begin to post them. I am looking forward to that task!

If you haven't already done so, please sign up on the alumni page of the website www.coppercreek.com so we can keep track of you, send you newsletters and generally annoy you with correspondence! We have lots of people to track down, so spread the word. For those of you on Facebook, there is quite a Coppercreek presence there. Either research my name or Coppercreek. There are two Coppercreek groups and then lots of us just floating around giving each other grief.
