Camp Kinderland spoken here
by Joan max reinmuth
Class of 1958

For me, the Fight for the Future included passing the New York State biology regents and becoming a Kinderland C.I.T.  As listed in the Guinness Book of Records, I achieved both.

This i know for sure:  early at camp i picked up on “shtick,” the blended verbal currency for everyday Kinderland relationships, activity and successful negotiation.

I learned how to mix the peoples’ history and satire with the essential Yiddish accent.  A sharp tool that, even when used casually, teaches “you’re smarter than you think.”  Shtick lets you steal attention without getting caught.  Shtick asks the universal question, “What am I missing?”  It adds the binder for all healthy communication.

(Compliments of Kinderland Shtick), I found everything from the FBI to the DMV could be correctly answered with, “Was Lincoln a car?”

kinderland i think of you often and always with love.
