Someone here at F&W asked me today “How was your weekend?” and I just had to blink and cock my head quizzically. They mentioned the photos on the F&W facebook page for Friday’s Interdependance Day, and things started to click. Friday was ages ago in camp time. We had an amazing song to share with everyone, complete with trucking in our piano onto stage, crazy costumes and unbelievable volume and enthusiasm.
“We got no iPods but we got some bomb cooks, you and me we’re rocking Timberlake. Unplugged in mud and hanging with our best buds you and me we’re rocking Timberlake” (To the tune of “Bad Romance” by L.Gaga)
Friday’s celebration ended with homemade ice cream cookie sandwiches, square dancing and a bonfire. We kept the celebrations rolling into the next day with a small banquet celebrating our J1 campers who left us too soon on Sunday morning. That evening was a great Council Fire with songs, raps and a touching bead ceremony that deserves it’s own special write-up.
Sunday morning was Senior Lodge Trip pack out, J1 departure and in the evening… FIFA Night. Staff then had a weekly all-staff meeting until midnight.
That weekend had a week’s worth of special things. Or perhaps a month’s worth.
