First Day with Campers!

I woke up bright and early at about 7:40 to get ready to go to be to camp by 11. Today's the first day that campers will be at the camp, and I'm really excited, but a little nervous at the same time. I'm working with middle school aged girls and we're taking an off-camp trip for three days and two nights, which is going to be super fun, but definitely intimidating since we won't be in the safety of the camp's property.

We have something at camp called Secret Buddies where you pull a name out of your hat to find out who your buddy is and you leave them little notes and gifts (ideally according to their interests list) for the week and then at the end of the week, you find out who your secret buddy is. I got my secret buddy twizzlers, hair scrunchies, and "sparkling mineral water" (her favorite drink) and already wrote the little notes that go with them.

Well, that's pretty much all for right now! Here's a look at how excited I am for camp:
