Our very own General Manager Pam Caldwell Nootbaar was just featured in an article over at InMenlo.com, where she talks about her love of horses and her role as parent and Kennolyn's General Manager.
Kennolyn was started in 1946 by Pam’s grandparents, Marion and Max Caldwell, and named for their children, Ken (Pam’s father) and Carolyn. To generations of campers they were known as Aunt Marian and Uncle Max. It was their vision that created the “Kennolyn experience.” And now, thanks to Pam, more people can get a taste of what that is.
“My grandparents were always struggling to make ends meet even though they had a very successful business,” said Pam. “I wanted to figure out what would make us sustainable.
“So I expanded the camp to include events and retreats, but I knew that those activities had to benefit the camp business — almost be subservient to it. For example, we don’t do overnight retreat business during the summer because it shares space in the resident’s area.”
