10/16 Update  -  Students have arrived at Camp Lindenmere!

Hello parents and guardians of students attending Mountain Workshop,

Your children have arrived safely to Camp Lindenmere!!

All students arrived to camp this afternoon and had lunch in the Main Dining Hall. Following lunch, students were able to head to their cabins and unpack.  Later today they will participate in their first two rotation of activities then organized outdoor play.

After dinner, students will have some free time before they attend their evening activity. They will then wind down in their cabins with lights out at 9:30 PM.

Tomorrow is a fun-filled day of more outdoor activities. We will share daily updates with you all as the trip progresses!

All the best,

CHMS 6th Grade Team

From Wednesday, October 16th to Friday, October 18th,   6th graders will attend an overnight  field trip with Mountain Workshop to Camp Lindenmere in Henryville, PA. The 6th grade team is excited to participate alongside the students as they explore nature and build connections with each other.

Buses will depart at 7:45AM on Wednesday, October 16th. Please ensure that your student arrives to school promptly at 7:30AM for check-in.

How to prepare your student for the trip:

• Review the packing list (found on bit.ly/CHMSclassroompages)

• Label all items placed into his/her bag with his/ her name and CHMS (this will help to return items in the event that they are lost)

• Temperature is variable colder than New York City, so pack long sleeve shirts and sweaters

• Pack healthy snacks for the two hour bus ride

• Please note: If your student does not have a sleeping bag, he or she can pack linens and a blanket

• Please note: if your student needs medication administered, please bring it in a labeled (student name) sealed plastic bag

What not to bring to Camp Lindenmere:  

• Candy or gum

• Toys

• Electronics, such as cameras (unless disposable), cell phones, electronic games, ipods/MP3 players

If students bring any electronic devices, they will be held by BPCS staff for the entirety of the trip.

Please note: There is no nurse at Camp Lindenmere to administer any medication.  If your student will be bringing any medication with them on the trip, please reach out to chmscoordinator@brooklynprospect.org.

*If our return is delayed, a CHMS staff member will make an automated call to all families with update arrival information.

We encourage all parents to visit the Mountain Workshop website (https://mountainworkshop.com/established-groups/) to find brief descriptions of student activities. For additional questions, feel free to email your advisor or Ms. Lindsey (glindsey@brooklynprospect.org).

During the duration of the trip, please contact the school’s main office at 718-783-1570. This is the best phone number as cellular phone reception is inconsistent at Camp Lindenmere. If there is an emergency, please contact the school and they will reach out to adults in Camp Lindenmere.
