This week brought two more camps to Rutledge:
I am paired with a Horizon cabin of 9-10 year old boys. What’s really cool about this camp is that each camper has their own counselor that they try to bond with that week. My cabin is great and so are their counselors! There is one boy in my cabin who asks to do “the wave” at every meal. “the wave” is a chant that we do where a bunch of people go to one end of the dining hall and say “we’re gonna do the wave, we’re gonna do the wave. We’re gonna do the wave, we’re gonna do the wave. 1-2-1-2-3- woo!” and we try to get the wave going (there and back) across the entire dining hall! on Sunday, one of the counselors in my cabin made coffee. Now the camper paired with him makes him coffee at every meal! It’s cute.
Today is a pretty light day for me, so this morning I hung out with some kids in dialysis! The kids that have dialysis have to be hooked up to these machines that clean out their blood for about 3 hours. So I played uno with this one boy who had quite a bit of attitude, and then I played it with one of the older girls in there. The one boy asked me about silly bands, so I went and got my bag full of them and handed them out to the three campers who were awake (the other 2 sleep through their treatment).
tonight's evening program is wacky olympics. BOTH camps are doing it in two different places, so it's gonna be pretty crazy! but i'm excited. i love camp! both camps bring so much energy and excitement. i just love it!!
tomorrow is the radiothon that raises money for camp twin lakes on 790 the zone! tune in!!
