Camp Week 1: A Chillier Gereatric Week
One week of camp down...
So, here's how it went...
First of all, there was the Pre-camp training.
It went the same as usual. We got training on all the aspects of camp. You know, you know. Several new oounselors including a girl whom I was friends with in high school: Amber Atkinson. We even did musicals in high school together. There is one new guy: Justin Brown. He's cool, but much younger, than Mitch, Zach and Myself. Several other ladies too.
This year, we did do that drill I had been dying to do. I got Justin exactly, the same way Jake Feits had gotten me two years ago, playing the same camper he had played. Cristen, Nicole, Mitch, Zach, and Fred played bad campers too.
Wow.
I am also officially a cart driver. Something I had let slide through my first year, but really started to want badly, last year. But I gave my first Kon-o-Kwee cart tour this year.
Great!
Anyhow, the weather this week was much cooler than past gereatric weeks I remember from the past. The past ones, were deathly hot. Unfortunatly as a result of the cooler temperatures,and older campers, there was no swimming this week. I didn't even make it to the pre-camp swim, because of my stupid Summer courses. Two good things about that though:
1. The water was deathly cold.
2. Not being there, I had no chance of drowning anybody.
Still, despite that and rough sleep duty, and another mishappening here and there, this was a pretty good week. Now, I'm at home, re-studying sign language. That deaf camper, from last year, is coming Week 7, and this year, I'm on my own with him. Andrea's gone for good, and I'm not sure Jess will be there either.
Well, until next time.
