End Of Camp

Camp Wanocksett

2008

OK, so the last week was a crazy one, we had a lot of "bonus" program including a huge water balloon fight, a HUGE fire, and the last dance with Camp Wa-Klo, the girls camp across the lake. The water balloon fight was as big as ever, well so i was told because i slept through it. The dance was OK, but in the beginning the lighting was wrong, so me and another staff member made a decision to change it... admin didn't like it, but there was nothing they could do about it. The dance overall went well.

Later in the week, Thursday night to be exact, we had our huge bonfire with about 250 pallets.

it was about 30 feet tall when we were done building it.



Burning bright



Yeah we may be crazy, but we are safe.




We made apple pie =)

That night me and 5 other people stayed up to make sure the fire didn't get out of hand. i was the only one that stayed up the entire night, so i slept through the day on Friday, the day of the large water balloon fight.

All the campers left Saturday, but not before the entire staff went swimming in full uniform!

Breakdown Week!!

The last time we were all together was probably the banquet Monday night during breakdown week. it was a lot of fun, and we had good food, but it also came with some unfortunate news. Our camp director of the last 3 years, who had been on staff for the last 10 years, was not coming back next year. we were all very surprised, and the general consensus among senior staff was that it was a little bit scary because we knew that we would be running the camp next year.

Overall the summer was a lot if fun, and everyone made a lot of new friends!!!
