multiple roles at camp or just one?

multiple-- I like teaching and also being a cabin counselor

Lifeguard sometimes - less homesickness.

Lifeguard or dock sitter?

dock sitter

campfire or counselor hunt

camp fire

kanagaroo court or greased watermelon?

Melon Ball!
(what is kangaroo court? a volleyball type game?)


Rainy days at camp where you can still get stuff done, it's just very wet, OR sweltering, humid days but it's still very sunny out?

rainy!

(kanageroo court is what you have after a counsellor hunt and the girls get to decide who gets "throw" in the lake!)

In a power cut - lanterns or candles?

candles (remember fire safety)

Patches or swaps?

both are fun!

patches or pins?

Patches!
I have collected a lot of backless pins over camp, because they will fall off the girls' belongings all the time.


"dolls" or "action figures?"

ah most dolls scare me but I do make my own now so dolls I guess

cuddly toys or barbie/action man?

Cuddly ones.


Canoes or Row Boats?

canoes - i like to see where I am going!

what would your ideal be (regardless of reality!) early to bed early to rise - or late to bed and late up?

Late to bed and late up; there is a reason I love night week so much! (we gradually make the girls go to bed later and later, until one night they are going to bed at 2 am after a 1 am cookout!

I don't think we get to do it this year.


Storing printed camp photos:
In a scrap book, or in a photo album?
(these are, of course, the ones you don't get printed poster size and hang in your living room for everyone to see)

temporailiy into an album until i have time to scrap book them!

print all your camp pics or just the best/your favs?

Oh gosh, just the best ones. I have a really fantastic camera (Canon Rebel) that I foolishly take to camp, and I have a 2gig memory card for it, and I bring my lappy so I can empty the card when needed; If I am not taking photos, my friend is and she takes SO MANY PHOTOS.
If I printed all the pictures we took, I'd have spent half of my camp pay, I'm sure.

A "roughin' it" session or a "beverly hills" session?
(rougin' it is all primitive cooking, sleeping, etc. where beverly hills learns about make up, has a "spa" day, and takes a trip to the local mall)

primitive day

camp theather production or campfire

campfire!


backpacks or HEAVY DUTY hiking packs?

backpacks

concert or olympics

concert

talent show or campfire?

campfire
rain or snow?

Would you rather be counselor or a director?

A counselor (even if, someday, I'd like to be a CD). It's more fun and less paperwork.


Fruits and Veggies as a before-bed snack, or sweeter treats?

before bed

lacrose or boats

canoe trips or kayak trips.
