International Edition

Uh-oh.

Wait one second.

What's going on here.

Oh no.

This is not our Flag Pole!

This body of water is NOT Lake Shawanni.

These aren't our birds!

This isn't the road past the cabins!

That's not the Dining Hall!

And that's definitely not Jim!

This can only mean one thing.

I'm in London again.

Yes, it's the end of January and that means it's time for my annual trip across the Atlantic to find our next batch of international counselors with the Camp America organization. 

My friend Brian, who runs a camp in New York was with me. It doesn't matter which camp. You can't go there, you already have a camp!

Camp America gave us a nice reception, high above the skyline. Camp America is the best.

And then the main event! The Camp America recruitment fair.

Applicants were lined up around the block (and around the Abbey)...

Looking forward to come inside...

And discover which of the many camps in attendance...

Would be their future summer home.

This is our table. Oooh. This looks nice. I want to go to this camp. (Wish granted.)

All right!

No more waiting!

No more suspense!

Time to meet the brave and exciting international counselors of 2016!

Meet EE Counselor, Hannah!

Meet Hannah ridiculous-style. 

Meet Creative Arts counselor, Olivia!

Meet Olivia, ridiculous-style. 

Meet Waterfront Counselor, Ben!

Meet Ben(s) ridiculous-style. 

And meet Grace, who will be Kitchen Staff!

And of course, meet Grace ridiculous-style.

It was great to get to find, meet and hire these fantastic folks in person. We already can't wait to reunite in a few short months on this side of the pond here in Stokes Forest, for a whole summer of fun. 

Welcome to the Camp Family!
