Five generations of children have lived, played, learned and
grown together at the camps of The Aloha Foundation since
their founding in 1905.
With encouragement from strong directors, kind counselors
and longtime campmates, thousands of campers have
become competent, self-confident and resilient at camp -- more
so here than in other childhood settings, many later tell us.
Equally important, campers and counselors alike have gained
friends for life from diverse backgrounds and homes the
world over. Meanwhile, the personal qualities camp fosters
-- self-awareness, curiosity and adventurousness, honesty,
respect and responsibility -- continue to shape their adult
lives as caring partners and parents, creative workers and
leaders, and committed contributors to their communities.
And when they return to Fairlee for reunions, family camp
vacations, or just plain visits to their old summer stomping
grounds, camp alumni always marvel at the welcoming
sameness of the tradition-rich places they “left home to come
home to” in their childhoods, many years ago or merely a few.
Campers, counselors and their parents write often to tell us
what aspects of camp have had the greatest influence on
their personal development.
Overwhelmingly, three recollections stand out:
• Their inspired leaders and dedicated mentors.
• The diversity of their camp communities.
• The peacefulness and beauty of their timeless surroundings.
These nurturing camp essentials have endured at the Alohas
for over 100 years, through good times and bad. By building
generous endowments dedicated to their continuity we can
bequeath them to a second century of campers.
LETTER FROM 2014 EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
JIM ZIEN
I write this introduction to the 2014 Annual Report of The
Aloha Foundation at the desk of my home office in Thetford,
a few miles down the road from lakes Morey and Fairlee,
having retired as Executive Director of The Aloha Foundation
on December 31st, after a decade in that enviable role.
My first order of business, then, is to thank you all for the
support you have afforded, the friendship you have offered,
and the kindnesses you have extended to me over these
excellent past ten years.
When I arrived on the scene in Fairlee in 2005 the Centennial
Capital Campaign had just commenced a final push to
secure more than $11 million in funding for improvements at
Aloha, Hive, Lanakila, Horizons and Hulbert; wilderness
conservation; new ways to foster diversity in the Aloha
community; and the creation of Ohana, our wonderful family
camp. That significant fundraising initiative concluded in the
nick of time, a few months before the Great Recession of
2008 and succeeding years took hold. Providentially, the
Centennial Campaign’s success helped us to sustain the
character of the camps, the quality of their programs, the
excellence of their staffs, and the financial strength of the
Foundation through the lean years of economic recovery,
still a work in progress for many.
Here is a statistical snapshot of our fiscal journey
from 2005 through 2014:
• Annual tuitions, fees and community giving:
$4.3 million to $7.2 million
• Net assets
$15 million to $30 million
• Long term investments
$8.5 million to $21 million
• Camperships and school program sponsorships
$430,000 to $635,000
Dollars alone don’t tell the true tale, of course.
Greater numbers of summer campers, exceptional counselors,
elementary and high school students, whole families, and
community and special interest groups populate the
Foundation’s five campuses more than ever before.
The year-round staff of 34, eleven camp and operating
department directors and twenty three-employees in
administrative, development, alumni relations, communications,
buildings and grounds, and food service roles, both do and
have great jobs, thanks to the commitment of the entire
community to keep the Foundation strong, spiritually,
physically and financially.
And that’s where this facsimile you’re holding of a camp
trunk comes in, as memory and metaphor.
The memory element is easy to discern: most of us have
packed and unpacked one of these many times and can
readily recall the assortment of essentials and treasures a
real trunk holds­­—everything necessary for summertime or
school-time sojourns of adventure and joy.
The metaphor more or less follows: the trunk as a treasure
chest of a different kind, one that guarantees the continuity
of the Aloha Camps for future campers, when their time
arrives to flourish in Fairlee.
I’ve shipped my own footlocker home from the Foundation for
the last time now. But I hope you will keep the memories
coming and help the metaphor live on, by contributing
whatever you can afford to the endowment-building
enterprise known as The Gift of Generations, about which you
will read more in the pages that follow.
Aloha, friends. Carry on and keep those fires burning.
Jim Zien
Executive Director
2005 to 2014
LETTER FROM OUTGOING BOARD PRESIDENT
PETER GAILLARD
One of the great benefits of serving as a trustee for The
Aloha Foundation is the relationship trustees have with the
people who make the Alohas the Alohas. Yes, when we come
together for our quarterly meetings in Fairlee, we spend lots
(and I mean lots) of time in meetings and on the business of
the Foundation. But when I leave Fairlee for my drive back to
Connecticut, I’m more often thinking about the conversations
I’ve had and the people with whom I’ve had them. Rolling
those conversations over in my head as I drive makes the trip
home fly by.
2014 was a year of change for the Foundation – marked most
notably by the retirement of our Executive Director, Jim Zien.
As I said in my letter to the Aloha constituency this summer,
much was accomplished in Jim’s decade as Executive Director,
including increases in the enrollments of the residential and
day camps; growth in the financial strength and assets of the
Foundation; significant improvements and additions to the
campuses; and the restoration and successful launch of
Ohana Camp. We thank Jim for his many contributions to the
Foundation and wish him nothing but the best as he starts
the next phase of his life. Posie Taylor, our Executive Director
prior to Jim, has stepped in as Interim Executive Director.
I know I speak for all trustees when I express my deep
appreciation and gratitude to Posie for her willingness to step
into the role while we search for and select the new leader for
our organization.
Also in 2014, we entered into the public phase of our
endowment-focused Gift of Generations capital campaign.
Starting in Boston in September and with events in New York
City, Connecticut, Washington, DC, Philadelphia, Cleveland,
Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle and the Upper Valley, the
public phase got off to an enthusiastic start.
The kick-off gatherings gave alums, staff and parents a
chance to connect with and hear from one another about the
Foundation and the campaign – as well as providing some
laughter and song along the way. By the end of 2014, more
than $5.3 million of the $6 million goal had been
pledged – a phenomenal amount. Looking more broadly at
the Foundation, it can be said that the organization is in
excellent shape. Program enrollments across the board are
strong and our finances are too. Just one number indicative
of our strength: at the end of 2014, Foundation endowments
were more than $21 million – the highest point in our history.
In November, the Board said goodbye to two trustees –
Kathy Fisher and John F. Herrick Jr. Kathy came to the Board
in 2008 and was a highly engaged member who served on
numerous committees - including Chairing the Audit and
Finance Committee from 2012 - 2014. Her service as a
trustee was one of high distinction and we are sorry to see
her go. John’s board service began in 1999 (John is the last
trustee to have started in the prior century!). John preceded
me as President of the Board, though he also served – at
one time or another during his fifteen-year stint – as Vice
President, Treasurer and Chair of (almost) every committee.
We’re still not done with John, though (or maybe he’s not done
with us?), since John is co-chairing The Gift of Generations
campaign, which is not due to wrap up until late in 2015.
Also in November, my two-year term as President of the Board
came to an end. Taking up the mantle is the very capable
Anne Conway Juster who joined the Board in 2005 and served
as Vice President for the last two years. I was honored to
serve as President of the Board and I would like to thank my
fellow trustees for their generous support during my tenure.
Peter Gaillard
President, Board of Trustees
LETTER FROM INCOMING BOARD PRESIDENT
ANNE CONWAY JUSTER
Dear Camp Alumni, Parents and Donors,
As the President of The Aloha Foundation I am delighted to present
the 2014 Annual Report. Throughout these pages you will see
evidence of the quality of our programs, the stability of our
finances, and the progress of our Gift of Generations endowment
capital campaign. The report will visualize and detail the
accomplishments of 2014 and look ahead to what progress will be
achieved in 2015. As my term unfolds, I look forward to working
closely with dedicated staff and trustees to ensure the
organization’s continued growth and excellence.
I would also like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and
thank Jim Zien for his service as Executive Director over the
last decade. Jim delighted in communicating the power and
vision of the Foundation through written and spoken word.
I speak for the Board in thanking Jim for his steadfast and
gracious leadership. Jim and Helena will always be
members of the Aloha family and on behalf of the Board and
the Aloha community I wish them well on any future endeavor
or adventure.
The Aloha Foundation continues to thrive, a half-century after its
founding, supported and championed by trustees, alumni, parents
and staff. The Foundation’s volunteer Board meets four times a
year in Fairlee to guide and support the Executive Director in his or
her role as Chief Executive Officer of the Foundation. By kicking off
The Gift of Generations capital campaign in 2014, the Foundation’s trustees committed to strengthening the Foundation’s
endowment, thereby ensuring that future generations of campers, staff and participants will enjoy the same quality programs,
places and leadership for generations to come.
Final thanks are also due to
Posie Taylor for the role she has
played as Interim Director while
the Board conducts a search for
the next Executive Director. Posie,
having served as Hive’s Director
or
as well as the Executive Director,
eele, Posie Tayl
J Parry, Kwesi St
M
is ably connecting the best of the
past with the promise of the future
with her trademark energy, enthusiasm and compassion.
Things are in good order as we look forward to welcoming our
future Executive Director.
2014 was also a year of transitions. I would like to recognize and
thank my predecessor, Peter Gaillard. Peter served as Board
President from 2012-2014. Peter led the Board with dedication,
perseverance, and good humor. He met challenges and opportunities
with courage and equanimity -- and so on behalf of the entire
Board, thank you Peter.
As we look ahead in 2015, I am confident and optimistic
about the state of The Aloha Foundation, and the efforts
being made by alumni, staff and trustees to ensure its health
and success in the generations to come.
Aloha,
Anne Conway Juster
President, Board of Trustees

TREASURER’S NOTE, RUDY GLOCKER
2014 was a strong year for The Aloha Foundation, both programmatically
and financially. Our operating results remained solid, The Gift of
Generations campaign drove donations and our investment portfolio
had another year of solid performance. The financial stability of the
Foundation is strong and continues to improve. Operationally the
Foundation was able to impact the lives of 7,375 participants.
The revenue associated with these programs was up 3% and the net
assets of the Foundation increased 9% year over year.
Total giving in 2014 was $2.8M. The Gift of Generations gifts are
especially important as they will help fund the Foundation in
perpetuity by building endowments to ensure the highest quality staff,
outstanding facilities and a mix of participants in the spirit of The
Aloha Foundation. The investment portfolio returned over 6% and
stood at $21.4M on 12/31/14, representing an increase of 68% over
the past three years and driven by strong performance and gifts.
This growth will supply income for the Foundation – both in 2014 and
for years to come.

We would like to thank all alumni, parents, friends and supporters
who donated to the Foundation in 2014. Your generous gifts have
allowed us to make an impact on people’s lives – not just in 2014,
but for generations to come. On behalf of the Foundation, thank you.
Related to this, we would also like to acknowledge the gifts of our
leadership team. Once again they have shown their commitment, not
only through their tireless efforts on behalf of our participants, but
by opening their wallets as well. This selfless act demonstrates in yet
another way the dedication of the outstanding people of The Aloha
Foundation. We would also like to thank the numerous staff members
who supported our campaign. On behalf of the trustees and all the
constituents of Aloha, we would like to thank our excellent
accounting staff, lead by Chief Financial Officer Jane Huppee for an
outstanding 2014. Our auditors have – yet again – made sure to
praise the department for their professionalism, accuracy and
cooperation during the 2014 audit. Our auditors praise our sound
fiscal policies and procedures which allow our program leaders to
focus on our mission, knowing our financial underpinnings are strong.
Here’s to 2015.
GIVING 2014: A BANNER YEAR
TOM MILLER, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2014 has been one amazing year for the Foundation! In total,
we received $3,010,775 in new gifts and pledges for all purposes,
including $373,465 for the Annual Fund. The Gift of Generations
capital campaign received $2,561,779 in new gifts and pledges,
raising the total of support for that effort to more than $5.3 million
by year end. Restricted giving has posted total gifts of $75,531,
including very generous gifts supporting camperships, and Ohana Camp’s continuing National Guard
Family Camp, as well as donations in support of specific camps and programs. We are very grateful to everyone who has made 2014
such a resounding success!

has gathered momentum. Campaign Co-chairs and Trustees Fran
Rosenfeld and John Herrick, who introduced the Campaign and its
lofty and long-term goals to hundreds of Aloha alumni, parents and
grandparents at the regional kickoff events.
The campaign attracted widespread and very generous support,
aiming to build the permanent endowment in three critical areas:
Leadership Excellence (Staff Salaries); Campership; and Campus
Stewardship. Fran and John engaged their fellow Trustees in a
variety of roles in support of the campaign, from developing print
communications and hosting regional events, to invaluable work as
solicitors and stewards. In total, the Board has contributed more
than $1.5 million toward the success of this effort, leading the way
with their own very positive example.
The campaign is now well into the public phase, when we reach out
to Aloha family members across the country and across the planet,
engaging all and sundry in this ambitious effort to secure the
strongest financial future for the camps. The campaign will close
its books on December 31st and we are confident that the
$6 million goal will be met and surpassed!
Thank you, again, to all who have given so generously in
support of the Aloha camps,
Aloha and Skol!

PAPER AND PENCIL
LANAKILA
Barnes Boffey, Director
What could be simpler to pack than a pencil and paper, and yet why
even bother? You don’t have homework! You don’t have to take class
notes!
Because paper and a pencil let you go to special places. As well as
having camp all around you, you get to have camp in your head…
Creativity Camp!
You can draw a picture of your tent-mate, or a frog, or the Viking
Ship! You can write a poem about the fog on the lake or the power
of Council Fire. You can design a shop project or plan a tower to
lash at campcraft. You can write an article or draw a cartoon for the
Lanalog! You can play Battleship or Tic-Tac-Toe or Pictionary. You
can write a letter home or to the Aloha girl you met at the dance!
You can keep track of what you want to carry up Mt. Moosilauke.
You can keep a journal of the memories from the summer!
There are literally hundreds of things you can do, and each is an
expression of you. I love writing and thinking and planning, so I
have a pencil and paper in my car, next to my bed, on my kitchen
table, and in my office. I love to make what’s in my head come alive
on paper.
So next to your flashlight and knife and socks and bug repellant,
put a couple of pens, a pencil and a big ol’ pad of paper. I’ll bet you
use it up in the first ten days. When you do, come see me. I always
have plenty.
Peace and Skol.

SUNGLASSES
HIVE
Kathy Plunkett, Director
When you pack your trunk for camp this summer, do not forget to
put in a pair of sunglasses! Yes, those all important, sometimes
stylish, maybe just fun, pieces of eyewear. “Why?” you may ask.
First, as we all know, sunglasses really and truly protect our eyes
from the harmful rays of the sun, and of course, I want you all to be
able to look at the world clearly your whole life. Other uses for your
sunglasses at camp are limitless.
You can use your sunglasses to help you look at the world in new
and different ways. With each new person we meet, each new skill
we acquire, and during every moment at camp we have opportunities
for wonderful and amazing growth. Each of these moments offers a
chance for us to learn something new about ourselves, about those
around us and about how we live together in our summer community.
We might see how we have grown by living with a tent family, or
maybe it will be how we see sailing or archery, or trying a new food!
Wearing your sunglasses this summer will help you remember that
with each new challenge we take, each new person we meet and
befriend, we see the world and ourselves in a new way. So, put those
sunglasses on girls. Your Hive summer will give you the chance to
look at the world in a new way.

NAIL POLISH
ALOHA
MJ Parry, Director
That’s odd… nestled among the much loved green shorts, white
shirts, flannels, books, and the beloved Aloha tie, often sit several
bottles of bright, glittery nail polish. Nail polish seems like an odd
thing to be in the trunks of even the most die-hard Aloha maidens,
but there it is, nail polish.
Having experienced the significance of nail polish my very first summer,
I know why it’s there. Early in the session we had a “free night.” One
of the girls’ choices was to hang out in the tent field. That night as I
was visiting units, the girls in one of the tents invited me to sit down
and have my nails painted. Of course I said “yes.” That’s when I
learned the secret power of nail polish – it’s a connector.
How does it work? On the surface the process is simple: girls
offering to share, making a color decision together, holding a hand
steady while it is being painted, and finally, celebrating the end
result together. This all happens with an overlay of conversation
and laughter that evolves naturally from doing something together
that requires some risk and trust. What a simple and powerful
vehicle to facilitate girls’ focusing intentionally on one another,
getting to know each other in fun new ways, while sowing the seeds
for deeper friendships!
So while we value our simple lives at camp and willingly leave
behind electronics, makeup, and the newest fashions, I’m all in
favor of packing a few bottles of magic nail polish.

BINOCULARS
OHANA
Vanessa Riegler, Director
When you pack everything you think you need for Ohana Camp,
whatever you do, don’t forget your binoculars. They will be able to
bring you the detail that you have been missing. Of course you can
take them on bird walks in the morning, you can look out across the
lake as you stand on the lodge porch and yes, they will make your
sister’s face look funny when you turn them around!
And of course, don’t forget to stop, breathe, and take in the view;
enjoy the surrounding beauty of the place you inhabit.
But there is more…
When you head to Ohana, be sure to pack your binoculars. And don’t
worry, we have plenty to share if you don’t have your own.
Look inside to find the courage to try something new, and see your
family in new ways as they do the same.
As you rekindle old friendships and embark on new ones, picture
your world at home as connected, intentional and as much fun
as Ohana.
LOOK + SEE + PICTURE + VIEW = VISION.
Take the Vision of what you want camp to be for you and your
family - then go and make it happen.

WATER BOTTLE
HULBERT
Jason Knowles, Director
What is the most important piece of equipment a Hulbert instructor
or participant can have? Spend ten minutes at camp and you’ll see
for yourself. Everybody is carrying a water bottle. Some may have it
in their hands, others in their back packs, but before going out on
any program everybody fills their bottle.
Not only does a water bottle help keep you hydrated while you hike
a mountain, but what could be better than a cold sip of water on
the summit as you take in the splendor of the view? Imagine that
adrenaline rush after you’ve just come down the zip line on the
ropes course, it’s that water bottle again that helps bring you back
in to the moment and prepares you to take on the next challenge the
course has to offer.
Whether through team building or on the archery range, our staff
and participants remain healthy and hydrated as they focus on fun,
team work and conquering the challenge at hand.
Whether you’re visiting us for the day or a week, make sure your
back pack has a water bottle, or better still, bring two!
Aloha and Skol,

CLIFFORD LOVERING
HAPPY WANDERER ENDOWMENT
--------------------------------------------------------------
For camp alumni, Clifford Lovering (A*43,52-84,H*44,L*47-50,93-94)
defines the Aloha spirit. For decades, Cliffie drove the camp trucks
and vans carrying campers to their wilderness adventures. Handing
out his famous fireballs and patiently listening to another round of
“Hi Ho, The Rattlin’ Bog,” Cliffie was the driver and much more. He
cheered and encouraged in times of challenge, he supported in times
of trial, he befriended always. In 2014, the following donors made
gifts in Cliffie’s memory to The Happy Wanderer Endowment, which is
part of the Foundation’s endowed support for camperships.

DAY PACK
HORIZONS
Tracey McFadden, Director
Horizons campers travel back and forth between home and camp
every day with a backpack on their backs. In that pack they bring
to camp everything they need from home to prepare them to get the
most out of a day at Horizons.
On the return trip home each day the pack is even fuller! Along with
a soggy towel and bathing suit, parents may find a weekly activity
schedule to hang on the fridge, a note from the counselors, or an
overnight permission slip.
The pack carries not only a fresh bathing suit, towel, and water
bottle, but may also contain decorations for the cabin, costumes
for the show, a book to read during quiet time, or a favorite game to
play with friends. There are also things in the pack that may be a
little harder to see: an idea for a skit, a story to tell on the overnight,
a song to teach the group, jokes to tell your friends, and a little
nervousness along with plenty of excitement about trying new
things and making new friends.
The pack is the perfect place to stash camp treasures such as a
friendship bracelet from a cabin mate, a natural fairy crown, a
colorful gimp lanyard, an archery medal, or a sparkly rock from a
mountain hike.
What really makes those packs bursting at the seams at the end of
each day are again the things we can’t see: the skills learned, the
confidence gained, the friendships forged, and the memories made.
