First week over and it was time for a well earned break!!
My co workers & I decided to check out the local town for our day off so we all went to the mall to watch a movie. One of the senior staff had organised a table at a local restaurant so we could all have dinner together, this turned out to be a great idea as we all got to know each other better and hear all the cool stories people had from all over the globe.
I never would have thought how close I am to these people that I only met a couple of weeks ago, I suppose that is what you get when you live in a small bubble that is known as camp.
It was down to week 2 and what a fun week it was. It was 4th of July week where all the activities were centred around red, white and blue and celebrating America's proud history. The highlight of the week was on the 4th of July where the kitchen staff excelled themselves with an a massive feast for the camp, which included ribs, chicken, burgers, hot dogs, and an assortment of salads and desserts. It was actually a struggle to get everyone ready for the evening session after the feast as most people were stuffed from eating too much. The day ended with fireworks right over our lake It was the closest I had ever seen fireworks and it really was amazing to watch.
Most of the week went along without any hitches. My campers were for the most part great kids. The only real situation I had was when one of my campers got sick and I was kept up for most of the night making sure he was alright, all ended well and he was really thankful when it was time to leave about helping him out. It made me realise what a difference I have on the campers that by helping him for the week how he would always remember me in a positive light.
Can't believe 2 weeks have gone already, the summer is passing by too quickly.
