âAt some point in the summer, counselors will need to clean up camper vomit. This is phenomenal practice for college.â
me, to the kids i worked with last week: welcome to medieval camp everyone! can anyone think of any fun medieval activities we might do here at camp this week?
kid: well, they used to do this thing where they would take your body and make it into four pieces and i think it was called quartering.
me: thatâs called torture! we will not in fact be participating in torture this week! âŠanyone else?
9 year old: âYou havenât eaten your Oreos yet!â
Director: âI havenât finished my dinner yet.â
9 year old: âThis is campâthere are no rules!â
Director: âWell if you insist.â
12 year old: âA mosquito bit me on the butt and Iâm NOT happy about it.â
Camper: âCan I use that porta potty over there?â
Camper parent: âYes. It even has hand sanitizer in it. So you know what that meansâŠit smells like tequila!â
Staff 1: âYour hair is so cute! Why donât you ever wear it down?â
Staff 2: âI literally look like Lord Farquaad right now.â
Child: *glances at the fireâs ashes*
Child: âoh hey grandmaâs hereâ
Staff 1: âThis fork only has three prongs.â
Staff 2: âThat makes it a trident!â
Staff 1: ââŠI was going to say itâs a threekâŠâ
At the end of week debrief when prompted âWhat did you learn this week?ââŠ
Staff member: âI learned all about high ropes activities. Specifically, that Iâm afraid of heights and have trust issues.â
7 year old camper to counselor: âCan I speak to your manager?â
Counselor: âWhat for?!â
7 year old: âWe didnât sing the underwear song!â
Camper 1 *singing*: đ¶ âIâm so excited to showerrr!â đ¶
Camper 2: ââShowerâ is a blessing word for me.
Camper 1 *still singing*: đ¶ âI havenât showered since Tuesday and then I went in the lake and horseback riding and Iâm sooooo dirttttyyyyy and now I get to showerrrrrrrrrrr.â đ¶
Staff: âWe need to send that one to a recording studio.â
7 year old: âIâm kind of missing my parents right now.â
Other 7 year old: âI literally already forgot I even had parents until you said that.â
7 year old, super casually: âThose are second class cabins.â
Staff: âExcuse me, what?â
7 year old: âI read a lot about the Titanic and they had first class, second class, and third class. And those cabins are definitely second class.â
Assistant Director to Camp Director: âOh, PSâshould I be concerned that you keep a knife in your sleeping bag?â
A brief summary of questions asked by the children at camp open house:
Do I get to go swimming?
What happens if I throw up?
What food do we eat at camp?
Which way is north?
What kind of suitcase should I bring?
Can I bring my iPad?
Is that the lake?
Do you have a credit card?
Where can I go hiking?
Q: What is your favorite part of camp?
A: âBeing surrounded by bugs reminds you that youâre not really at the top of the pyramid. Itâs humanizing for so many people to be freaked out by bugsâŠexcept for the Australian counselors. And thatâs why they terrify me.â
Camper: âWhat does your tattoo say?â
Lifeguard: ââI refuse to sink.ââ
Camper: âOh, so youâre basically a pool noodle.â
âŠand then she just swam away.
