On Saturday the 17th of September, Dana and Matt were married in our Elmore Solomon Chapel.
The ceremony was led by Cantor Fran Goldman from Matt’s hometown congregation in Richmond, Va. Their family and friends will always remember the moment when Dana and Matt said their vows and wove their personal story into the tapestry of three generations of Blue Star campers and staff.
Adding to this unique event, Cantor Goldman shared her story as a former camper and as a Mom of two campers. Many attending the ceremony laughed and smiled as they were reminded of their own stories.
Our Blue Star family enjoyed the telling of Dana and Matt’s love story, born and nurtured at Camp. They are only the fourth couple, and the only one married in the Chapel, who are not members of the Popkin family.
All of us at Camp are honored to have watched the very beginning of their romance and to have been included in their most beautiful wedding ceremony and reception. We wish them a long, happy and healthy life together and a great big MAZEL TOV!

4th couple eh? And how many couples do you not know about?
I am Anji Storrs (nee Nunns) and I met my husband, Jerry Storrs at Blue Star where we were both staff, in 1983. We were married in England in 1984, and have been happily married for 27.5 years.
