Started by North Park alumnus Daniel Kasnick and his wife Denisse, Camp D&D “creates environments that enhance wellbeing by discovering and developing community<\/b> for all socioeconomic levels of society including school, family, youth, and themed camps. We promote\u00a0awareness, appreciation, and social responsibility<\/b> of ourselves, others, and the\u00a0world through meaningful experiences based on\u00a0reflective practices, team-building activities, and environmental connections<\/b>. These experiences aim to reshape our world view and perspectives that will stay with us for a lifetime.”<\/p>\n
North Park students are invited every year to participate as camp counselors, animators, and crew for this creative, community-building camp during Peru’s summer, which is Chicago winter. Students travel down to Peru after Christmas to prepare the camp for the first round of campers and work with Peruvian camp staff to create a warm and welcoming environment. This nine-day trip includes prep, camp, and a few days of visiting both Incan wonders and colonial Lima. This trip is suitable for anyone with a heart for kids and a spirit of adventure.<\/p>\n
