S'Mores and Smiles and Some'Other Such Things

Tuesday night!



A Camp favorite!

Cause it's Cabin Choice Night!

When each and every...



Individual Cabin group...


Gets to design their own...


Wacky...


Zany...
Bonding-filled...

Quality-time-driven...

One of a kind...
.

Evening activity.


It's one of our favorite nights.


Though.


Full Disclosure:

They're all our favorite nights.

But that's not all!

Tuesday night also includes...

That most classic of Summer Camp activities. 
The cooking...

And careful construction.

Of s'mores.

In fact!

It is illegal...



For any camper...

To attend Summer Camp...

In The United States of America...

And go home without having the chance to try a s'more.

(Or we think it should be illegal, anyway.)

And since here at Lindley G. Cook 4-H Camp...

We're such sticklers for the rule of law...

We make sure that on Tuesday nights...



Every single camper...


Gets to spend...

A little...

Good old fashioned...


Time around the fire...
Debating the intricacies...

Of what exactly is...
The best method to achieve...
A perfectly medium rare marshmallow.

And then enjoying the glorious...

Final product.
Yummmm.
But here's the real secret!



It's not about how you roast the marshmallow.

It's not about the proportion...

Of chocolate to graham cracker...

It's not even about which part of the fire...

You aim your roasting stick.
 

In fact!

It's not about the s'more at all.


Yes, the secret ingredient...


 
Is not what goes into the fire...

Or what's cooking over the fire...

But who's sitting around the fire.


And when it's your Summer Camp friends around the fire...



Anything would taste delicious.
