Shannon and Abbi dive into the "Opening Day" section of our 2025 Summer Guide. We'll give you the rundown on the first 24ish hours of camp, as well as one of the more daunting topics: the swim test! Campers — this might be a bit more palatable for you. And listen for a shout-out at the end to some campers who wrote to us!

Sorry, campers — this one might be a little dry for you. We're recording this episode for the parents out there who want more detail on our summer guide, which hit your inboxes early March. Shannon and Abbi will break down some of the denser information, like packing lists and pre-camp paperwork. But don't dispair! We promise more classic Shabbi content in the future.

Shannon regales us with a surface-level history of Chimney Corners Camp, from its founding in 1931 to its purchase by the YMCA in 1971, while Abbot goes "wow" and "ok" to prove he's listening. We also get an EXCLUSIVE phone call with Camp Becket Director Dan Berg (all 15 seconds of his time). We'd like to shout-out one of our loyal listeners, Hannah B! Thanks so much for engaging with our episodes on Spotify. See you this summer!
