We are in the home stretch and although I have never questioned what that aphorism means in my mind it defines the time right before the end, when you have the biggest reward and are most engaged. So, in my mind, we are really on the home stretch! From the Variety show last night through the end of camp is normally a blur of wonderful experiences.
The variety show last night was great, with amazing performances and skits we had close to a 3 hour show last night. Our first year staff did a terrific job of hosting the show, introducing acts, and in a good spirited way.... making sure that the older staff got heckled! We had great performances from so many campers, Ian Goodine, Trevor Norve, Ashley Field, Manny Camargo, Isabella Perfetuo, and many more took the stage to share their gifts with the rest of camp. Many standing ovations were handed out and everyone headed back to their cabins after vespers with a song in their heads.
Today we really start to get into the best morning group conversations, then we head to Cabin Wars (which has taken on a life of it's own over the past 10 years, the costumes, theme music, and level of intense competition is outstanding), and to end the day we have our formal dance. I'll check in during the dance to say hello, have a wonderful day and THANK YOU for sharing your teens with all of us for the week. The staff at camp gets just as much out of the campers as we hope that the campers get from us!
