The 2018 Winter Chimp-O-Lympics

February 16, 2018 by J.B.

Anna organized an Olympics-themed party for the chimps this morning. Negra wasn’t sure what to think at first, but once she saw the fancy drinks in coconut-rimmed glasses, she got on board.

We didn’t have quite as much snow as they have in Pyeongchang, but we managed to scrape together enough to fill a sled before it all melted.

    I believe Negra is hooting her score of a perfect 10!! That was so fabulous I had to play it twice. Hysterical and adorable. Bravo Team CSNW!!!! (J.B. and all caregivers, you have the best sense of humor 😁)

      Had to begin my morning by watching this video two more times! Can’t believe the big stuffed animals are still surviving all the chimps love (or maybe these are new stuffed pals?!) and I love the ending where Missy bites into her snow and you can see the steam blow out of her mouth! And Missy and Annie using the napkins — this is all too wonderful.

      Thank you CSNW for always delivering heart fluttering happiness to my life every day! That’s real GOLD!

    That is an absolute riot! I LOVE watching the chimps at a party, they always look like they really enjoy it. They are all gold medalist’s! Great video Anna, thank you.

    Now you have really outdone yourselves. This was so creative and clever. I don’t know how you people come up with such wonderful ideas. With all the hard work and long hours you all have, it amazes me that you put so much time into these theme parties.

    This is wonderful. You all go to such great lengths to make these chimps happy. Always coming up with new and fun ideas for all of us to enjoy. Thank you for all the hard work that goes into the party and making the video. Glad the chimps were able to have their very own Olympic experience!
