the Sci-Tech Alumni Newsletter
Our favorite tree on the Main Lawn at camp!
OCTOBER 2024
Hello Sci-Tech Alumni and welcome to our first ever Sci-Tech Alumni Newsletter! As our community of former camper and staff alumni grows, we are so excited to share updates about our peers and upcoming events with you. We will be distributing this newsletter every ~3 months, highlighting our amazing alumni, sharing the news about exciting life changes, and informing you about upcoming alumni events. As you’ll see below, we aim to keep these newsletters short, sweet, and relevant. So relevant in fact, that we want you to submit your own news for us to share with the community! In this newsletter:
- Learn about pioneer camper Isaac Berman
- Check out our new LinkedIn group
- See what your fellow alumni have been up to recently
- Mark your calendars for the Game-A-Thon, from December 15-18!

Isaac Berman
Our featured Alum this month is Isaac Berman, a Pioneer camper, counselor, and Video Game Design Lead Instructor! He graduated from the University of Chicago and is now working as a video game designer in Albany, NY. (Currently he’s working on Gang Beasts!) He is also a member of the Sci-Tech alumni committee, helps coordinate the Game-a-Thon fundraiser for the scholarship fund, and is helping organize the soon-to-launch Sci-Tech Game of the Month Club (stay tuned for more info). Fun fact: Isaac was the first camper to stay the full summer!
