AngelSoft - Farm & Wilderness

Written by Kory Mathis | July 18, 2010

Named after the toilet paper (or loo roll, as my wife’s side of the family call it) “AngelSoft” is our version of hockey played with a roll duct-taped to make a puck.  The stadium is the upper lodge, and the goal is a gap in the benches.

On the 14th of July Big and First Lodge played an epic tournament.    It was one of those rare moments where the intensity was high, everyone was giving it all they had.    “Wait”  you’re thinking “You’re talking about a game named after toilet paper”  but these boys were really into it, and playing very hard.    So each goal was a triumph, a roar of victory.  Yes, each goal – including the opponents.   Because while we are a Quaker camp,  we are not against pushing our limits or striving hard.   We are non-competitive so no one is excluded, and everyone truly feels a winner and part of the group.    A tie result for many means that no-one won the match.  A “TL tie” means everyone wins.
