Less than a week until the end of the first half. There is a positive swell coming up under us, manifesting itself in counselors holding things tight and campers stepping up for chores. Week Three was a challenging week with lots of tired people coming back from trips and staff needing days off. Staff and campers and met those challenges and are now ready to finish up with a lot of work in activity areas, special all camp games like “40 Thieves” and our final Banquet.
This morning a Senior Lodge camper led the morning songs, with first lodgers on stage holding the song cards. Later in Silent Meeting a camper spoke to the theme of “lucky and unlucky”. He felt it was going to be a great day, a lucky day, because the three morning songs had all been favorites. What a lesson to us all, to feel lucky for such simple gifts.
