At camp...

Here are some campisms for you from here at Spring Hill.

--At camp you wear everything until it smells like campfire or you've worn it twice.

--At camp showering for campers is something you encourage.  But it you as a part of the staff don't shower more than once or twice a week, it's not a big deal.

--At camp, swimming in the pool could be considered as a shower.

--Taking half an hour to an hour in the shower at camp is no big deal, especially when you're on break.

--Shaving your legs once every two to three weeks is no big deal.  But having freshly shaved legs feels amazing.

--At camp you might not want to do all  your laundry but just a couple of shirts and a pair of shorts to last you a few days, so you may find yourself washing those four items in the sink.

--Sleep becomes a precious commodity.  Get it when you can.

--You get excited for real food (AKA the home cooked stuff).

--You don't always get along with the people you live and work with.  But they do become some of your best friends who have been with you through some of the funniest and goofiest moments of your life, and also have been there when you've struggled through the hard times.  These are the people who understand and love you for being you.

--At camp, you rarely know what's going on in the "real" world.  Camp is our "real" world, so any drama and all the good and bad that happens at camp is our version of world news.
