TO THE KNIGHTS IN THE DAYS OF OLD…

Well, I was quite confused again when I woke up this morning; clearly I still haven’t gotten used to Sundays, when the campers and counselors get an extra half hour of sleep!  At the chapel service, the camp community listened to a beautiful talk reflecting on relationships with

A PLACE WE’RE ALL TOGETHER

I think I stayed up a wee bit late last night dancing under the full, radiant honey moon!  The bullfrogs were singing loudly, and the moonlight was just so brilliant that I couldn’t resist. Thankfully, an enormous breakfast of eggs, hash browns, bacon, and an oatmeal bar helped

FUNGA ALAFIA!

It’s Friday the Thirteenth, so today I was in charge of making sure no funny business occurred (except for my own mischievous games). Since I am an expert in tricks and foolishness, I decided to cause a little turmoil around camp (all in good fun, of course). I pranced over to

WE’RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER

Thursdays are always a highly anticipated day at camp! Campers and I anxiously waited all week for handmade pizzas, bag supper, and movie night. The Junior Counselors spent the morning making delicious pizzas for lunch and the girls swapped ideas about what movie would be shown.

OVER HILL, OVER DALE…

  I woke up early to scout around the camp before the sun rose this morning. The lake was shimmerinin’ in the mornin’, so I decided to take out a paddleboard before the bell. I heard an alarm go off around 5:45 while I was out on the lake, and I peered down from the tree I

OH OUR GUESTS, OUR GREETINGS WE EXTEND…

As I was resting on the camp gates this morning, some unfamiliar visitors who were not wearing greys and greens pulled into camp. I didn’t know who these friendly new faces were, so later, I crept up on some counselors to eavesdrop and learned that the ACA reaccreditation visit

CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES (ALRIGHT!)

  As I sat up in the trees tonight, I heard loud applause coming from Castle, so I swung by just in time to get a front row seat for the big Talent Show (in the rafters, of course).  I watched as the girls danced with glee, sang with cheer, played instruments with pride, and

FLICKER OF THE CAMPFIRE

  When my alarm went off this morning at 8:00, I was extremely surprised that I didn’t hear the usual cacophony along the front line.  Most days, excited chattering wakes me up anyway, not my alarm.  About thirty minutes later, I finally heard the bell and made my way down

…AND BINGO WAS HIS NAME-O

There was a camp that had a Tajar, and that Tajar is me-o!  I’m feeling full of folly after returning from an exhilarating evening program: Bingo Night!  Winning numbers were called, music was blasted, dance parties ensued, and spirits were high as campers and staff dressed in

CAROLINA MOON

This morning, I started off the day lounging in a bush and watched as campers shoved envelope after envelope into the mailbox.  There are going to be lots of lucky parents and friends receiving their first letters of the session!  Occasionally, some first letters report that your
