SCOPE Midwest held its Annual Benefit Dinner “All You Need is Camp” at Briarwood Country Club in Deerfield co-chaired by Dayna Hardin and Dana Kite, directors at Lake of the Woods and Greenwoods Camps. The event raised more than $125,000 to help send Chicago-area children to one of 13 SCOPE partner camps. Partner camps are all nonprofit overnight camps throughout the Midwest, including House in the Wood, a summer camp through Northwestern Settlement. More than 250 guests attended the event that featured cocktails, dinner, live music by Robbie Gold, and a silent auction. Allen Schwartz, previous owner and director of Banner Day Camp, was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award for his positive impact on the lives of thousands of youth and his contributions to the summer camp industry. Also honored at the dinner was Sydney Martin, who founded Giving Rocks Foundation when she was just 10 years old. Giving Rocks has raised more than $700,000 to help find a cure for a rare form of pediatric cancer. Sydney’s mother, Traci, accepted the award on her behalf. scopeusa.org/midwest
