To mark the final day of August (the last of the pure summer months, none-the-less), we thought we'd jump-start our September-Summer-Reminiscing just a little bit early with a trip to the Photo Archives of Summer 2017.
And what better way to recognize the last of the summer months than a trip back in time nearly two weeks ago to our last evening of Summer Camp 2017.
 |
| However! |
 |
| Before it... |
 |
| Can be... |
 |
| The last... |
 |
| Evening... |
 |
| Of Summer 2017... |
 |
| It needs to be... |
 |
| The last... |
 |
| Afternoon... |
 |
| Of Summer 2017. |
 |
| And since... |
 |
| We end... |
 |
| The summer season... |
 |
| With Session 7: |
 |
| S'morgasbord Week, |
 |
| Our afternoon consists of some of... |
 |
| The summer's best highlights... |
 |
| Like a mid-day... |
 |
| Counselor Hunt... |
 |
| And once again... |
 |
| Discovering a glitch in the Camp Time Machine... |
 |
| That for some reason... |
 |
| Only really seems to result... |
 |
| In our staff spilling... |
 |
| Coffee in their face... |
 |
| Over... |
 |
| And over... |
 |
| And over again. (Welcome to Camp indeed.) |
 |
| It is only after ALL OF THAT... |
 |
| That our last afternoon... |
 |
| Becomes our last evening... |
 |
| And we're ready for... |
 |
| Our... |
 |
| Closing Campfire. |
 |
| Assisted, of course, by the beautiful backdrop... |
 |
| Of early twilight Lake Shawanni. |
 |
| It's the perfect venue... |
 |
| To reflect... |
 |
| To recap... |
 |
| A completed week... |
 |
| Of Summer Camp. |
 |
| Why, |
 |
| It's even a good venue... |
 |
| To all get together... |
 |
| And... |
 |
| Sing some songs about it. |
 |
| And it's even better... |
 |
| If the Camp song... |
 |
| Happens to be... |
 |
| A brand new-song Camp song, we just made up. |
 |
| Cause every unique week of Camp... |
 |
| Deserves it's own unique... |
 |
| Original composition. |
 |
| Then it's on... |
 |
| To one of our favorite moments... |
 |
| Of the night... |
 |
The week...
|
 |
| And the summer. |
 |
| Our salute... |
 |
| To our CIT IIs... |
 |
| On their last evening at Camp... |
 |
| As campers. |
 |
| (Y'know the CIT Coordinator likes it.) |
 |
| Sure. It has the danger... |
 |
| Of getting just a little... |
 |
| Emotional. |
 |
| Or a lot emotional. |
 |
| But don't worry! |
 |
| It can also... |
 |
| Get pretty funny. |
 |
| And then, |
 |
| After it gets funny... |
 |
| It usually gets... |
 |
| Emotional again. |
 |
| That's why we then... |
 |
| Have to wrap the Closing Campfire up... |
 |
| With another song. |
 |
| And as the Closing Campfire ends, so end our closing ceremonies, and so ends our week at Summer Camp. |
 |
| Kidding! Just kidding! |
 |
| We love closing ceremonies so much... |
 |
| The Closing Campfire... |
 |
| Is only... |
 |
| Just the beginning... |
 |
| Of the end... |
 |
| Of our Camp Week. |
UP NEXT: Part II!
