Camp Chippenstock is surrounded by breathtaking scenery. Each year we get letters from satisfied campers like this one from Tommy Molina:

A study from scientists at Yale University showed massaging sore knees can significantly reduce pain and improve mobility.
US-based pain specialists, AM Relieve@, took inspiration from rigid knee braces and flexible knee sleeves.
They created something truly groundbreaking called The Ultra Knee Elite TM. Physical therapists and users everywhere are shocked at the results.
The Ultra Knee EliteTM combines the support of a knee brace with the flexibility of a knee sleeve. By adding 2 side bolsters the knee is secure and protected from twisting, buckling, or overstretching.
A cutting-edge knee ring and acupressure pad actually massage the knee every time you move.
Plus the snug compression material used in the Ultra Knee EliteTM provides a gentle warming sensation that helps melt knee pain away fast.
The Ultra Knee EliteTM is discreet and comfortable, so it can be worn all day under clothing without anyone noticing.
It’s easy to see why AM Relieve@ has over 93,000 happy Ultra Knee EliteTM customers.
And because AM Relieve is committed to helping people in pain, they’ve made it affordable for everyone.
For a limited time only, AM Relieve@ has slashed the price of the patented Ultra Knee Elite Compression Sleeve by up to 73%.
