amazing! You always spread the credit around Fatty, but you are clearly getting it done! Yeah for the Michiganders! Even the Michiganians!

@Yann, DaveT, UptheGradeinSR , ChrisD, and all NorCal Fatties:
UCDavis has a camp. We could plan a Camp vs Camp vs Camp ‘race’ next year. It gives us time to work it out…..and plan the prize.

Jason B: I didnt mean to miss you, it’s in your backyard.

Well done Elden and the Team. Next year we’ll be ‘gunning’ for you!

We rented a car, which Couch noted, “Oh good, this car will be awesome in case we need to fold cats!”

I laughed out loud at this!

I think this might be one of my favorite Fatty 100 Miles of Nowhere report of late. What enthusiasm and love in that room!

I’m still feeling the energy and gratitude from Friday. All those young people doing fantastic work – largely based on college campuses around the U.S. and likely one near you – was truly something to behold.

These kids are much more than all right. :)

“Choose Happy.”

A great summary of Camp Kesem.

I like that.

My dog offered to tattoo it for me, but I’m not sure I trust his penmanship.

Or his spelling.

I think I’ll just keep it in my head. Plenty of unused space there.

So much awesome in this post! In the past three years, I lost my dad, my brother-in-law and recently, my mom to F-ing cancer. I really hate that disease. I hope that someday, my nephew can attend Camp Kesem. He was only 4 when his dad passed away, so I’m not sure how much he will remember about his dad, but he was an amazing man who inspired so very many people with his positive take charge, f-cancer attitude. He had a motto – choose happy. Camp Kesem is definitely a way for kids to choose happy! Thank you for the wonderfully written post and photos!!!
