Session 3 Check-In Day Alumni Parents Gathering

Coniston Ambassador Kelly Condon and Alumni Danny Rudnick will host a session 3 alumni parents gathering at their side-by-side Lake Sunapee homes. This gathering is a fantastic opportunity to reconnect with other alumni parents and share your experiences after campers are dropped off at Coniston.

Way back when Kelly and Danny were campers they would occasionally visit each others’ family cottages on Lake Sunapee. They never imagined they’d wind up next door neighbors one day, but that’s just what happened and now they look forward to co-hosting an alumni event following session 3 drop-off!

Some snacks will be provided, but please feel free to bring a dish or a bag of chips to share. This event is BYOB.
More details to come soon.
Tentative Time: 3 pm – 6 pm

GivingTuesday 2025
2025-12-02
GivingTuesday is a global celebration of generosity held each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. It’s a day when people around the world come together to give back, through donations, volunteering, and acts of kindness.
At Coniston, GivingTuesday is one of our major Annual Fund campaigns. It’s a chance to raise funds that help more kids experience the magic of Camp.
WHY IT MATTERS THIS YEAR
This year, our goal is to raise $40,000, which will help send
15 kids to Camp next summer. That’s 15 lives changed, 15
new friendships formed, and 15 young people growing into confident, compassionate leaders.
Even better? Bar Harbor Bank & Trust is generously matching
the first $5,000 raised, doubling your impact right from the
start!
