That's right... |
We're here! |
The Camp Family... |
Is back together... |
Back in action... |
And back at 4-H Camp... |
For Leadership Weekend! |
Cause who doesn't need... |
Just a little... |
Summer Camp joy... |
In the midst of winter. |
And as always, we start that Summer Camp joy... |
With an Opening Campfire... |
To introduce WHY we're here... |
In the middle of February. |
(Why ARE we here in the middle of February?) |
It's simple! We're here... |
'Cause we're next year's Junior Counselors, of course! |
Junior Counselors who follow a sleep-away Camp night... |
With a sleep-away Camp MORNING! |
With Camp morning table setting... |
Camp morning yoga... |
Camp morning breakfast prep... |
(Yum)... |
Camp Morning, Curtis... |
And Camp Morning clean-up! |
Cause part of WHY WE'RE HERE... |
Is to give back to 4-H Camp... |
And a great way to give back to Camp... |
Is to help give the Dining Hall... |
A Pre-"Spring Cleaning" Clean! |
(Especially because we still left out most of the stuff from Winter Gathering.) |
Yes, and as all of our former CITs... |
Have gathered to learn more about HOW we take care of Camp... |
(Back to WHY WE'RE HERE!)... |
One of the best ways to take care of 4-H Camp... |
Is to have a great time... |
While you're working. |
How much fun... |
Can you really have... |
While cleaning up... |
Two month old... |
Holiday wreaths? |
Oh, don't underestimate... |
The future... |
Junior Counselors... |
And staff... |
Of L.G. Cook... |
4-H Camp! |
We know how to have... |
TOO MUCH FUN... |
Doing almost... |
Anything! |
But back to WHY WE'RE HERE! |
We're here to team build... |
|
And to do so, |
First we need to team build... |
By getting the "Story-Telling Campfire-wood!" |
And also back to WHY WE'RE HERE! |
The participants of Leadership Weekend... |
Have (for the most part)... |
Been coming to summer camp year after year... |
Summer after summer... |
And have enjoyed... |
Playing outside... |
With almost every summer camp activity... |
We have to offer. |
And now, |
Since they've finally aged-out... |
Of our Summer Camp program... |
We only think it's right... |
To give them the opportunity... |
To have fun... |
Playing... |
Outside... |
Together... |
With some of the... |
NON-SUMMER camp activities we have to offer... |
As well. |
And ALSO BACK TO "WHY WE'RE HERE"! |
Leadership Weekend is a Junior Counselor TRAINING weekend... |
And even more important than the Junior Counselors taking care of 4-H Camp... |
Is that the Junior Counselors help take care of the CAMPERS at 4-H Camp... |
So we spent some quality time talking out... |
The philosophies, goals, and tactics... |
Of our caring, welcoming, kind and respectful 4-H Camp environment. |
Speaking of environment! You know we couldn't be here... |
Without playing... |
Some 4 Square... |
Taking... |
Some hikes... |
And just enjoying every minute... |
Of getting to be... |
Back on Camp again. |
Sounds like the makings for a full weekend, right? |
Wrong! |
Because it's only Saturday afternoon! |
And despite the time we've had... |
The fun we've had... |
And all we've accomplished... |
There's still half of a Leadership Weekend to go! |
But you'll have to come back to the blog later to see that.
