It's nearly the end of the year, and a new semester is coming soon. However, its almost the time for people to start counting down the days to summer. Unless, they're like me and they've been counting down since August. Now you're probably thinking, "why has she been counting down that long? Summer is great, but won't she miss her friends?" Well, the truth is, I will miss my college friends. Buuuuut, not as much as I miss my camp friends and campers during the year. Therefore, here are some things about camp that I miss all year long...
1. The campers
Whether they were my campers, or they belonged to another cabin; they're the kids I'll miss all year long.
2. My Co-counselors
From session one to session two, my co counselors were the ones who kept me sane and made sure I was always doing well. Shout out to y'all!
3. Staff meetings
Literally the only reason I didn't mind getting up at 7 am every morning!
4. Cabin time
Whether that was during cabin clean up, rest period, or before lights out, cabin time is always the best time with my sweet campers!
5. The community
Whether it was being around the guy counselors or the girl counselors, camp community is the best. We spend every waking moment together, and these people become your family for the summer. Camp family is honestly the best kind of un-biological family!
6. The breaks (sorry, campers)
Considering breaks are usually spend with at least one other counselor, they can be the best. We get to relax and have adult time and it's honestly so stress-relieving.
7. Activities
Capture the flag, the critter, hikes, fishing, and many more. Seeing the campers (and even the counselors) smiles during these times makes it all worth it!
8. Meal times
We eat, we sing, we dance, we have mail time. These times are the times we look forward to because the entire camp gets to be together. Even dish duty can be fun if you're with your pals!
9. Traditions
Fishing, tribal comp, cabin traditions, and sing song are all part of the fun at Camp Huawni!
10. The nature
I mean, wow, look at this place! It's indescribable!
11. My directors
Every single one of our bosses (from our director of operations to our CEO -of fun-), each and every one of our directors make being a counselor at Camp Huawni so easy!
12. Everything... Literally, EVERYTHING
Well, I can't say anything bad about camp, so I guess I can sum it up to everything about camp is what makes it so special.
Sooo... If you think you would want to miss any of these things during the year, think about Camp Huawni! Look at our website (http://www.camphuawni.com/), and think about applying! We're a pretty rad bunch of people and would love to have you with us!
