...4-6-year-old girls cared deeply about this wedding. Despite the absence of a reason for celebration, I pulled all the girls into the circle and we started dancing and clapping to the music. The energy that went into the preparation on previous days could finally be appreciated. My campers and I not only celebrated the accomplishment of the mock wedding, we celebrated the fun and excitement we experienced for the first three weeks in Camp Glitter Girls. I had begun preparing for Camp Glitter Girls over four months before by budgeting, sending out fliers, confirming registration and finally making sure that every camper would have the time of her life. As I danced, I celebrated the times I almost lost my patience but didn't, the times that I planned activities late into the night because I knew that only an organized schedule would ensure the success of my camp. The lessons I had learned from previous summer camps contributed greatly to this camp's success. At the age of thirteen, I first ran a camp for eight children. The next year a friend and I co-managed a camp for twenty children at a...

I don’t have time to take care of the stuff that surrounds me every day that is disposable, like coffee cups and diapers and tea bags and things that if I slowed down and paid attention to and shepherded, husbanded, nurtured, would last a lot longer. I wouldn’t have to replace them as often as I do. But who has time for that? We keep it cognitively and physically on the edges as much as we possibly can, and when we look at it head-on, it betrays the illusion that everything is clean and fine and humming along without any kind of hidden cost.” ― Robin Nagle om_ak_fall_corn little paper parents get the tipsheet email address subscribe second city summer camps ...

...Running a Camp: What is Absolutely Necessary? Every aspect of creating and implementing a workable plan to run a camp is important. There are many different factors that will either positively or negatively affect whether the camp will run smoothly or crash and burn. Some aspects of running a camp can take a few blows, but other areas cannot. This paper will debate the usage of some of the different areas that make up a camp, and whether or not they are absolutely necessary to the full affect to make the camp work. To give an adequate picture of how a camp is formed, the best way to imagine it is to think of a skeletal system. The bones of the camp are the strategic planning and design of the camp itself; if an idea wasn’t there, the camp would never get off the ground. The staff and facilities itself are the muscles of the camp. Without them, the camp director would never be able to get things done, and the participants would not gain anything from the experience. Risk management is a big part of camp life, so in a way it would be the skin. The skin protects everything inside, but can take a few blows for the greater cause. Everything else can be considered as the veins. Marketing, finance, food services, volunteers and transportation services are things that most often get over looked, but could conceivably be the most important to the overall operation. This could be because they are seen as after effects; especially for camps that have no need for them. All together...

...January 9, 2004 OP-ED COLUMNIST Enron and the System By PAUL KRUGMAN wo years after Enron, then one of America's most admired companies, was revealed as a fraud, prosecutors finally seem to be getting somewhere. Andrew Fastow, the company's former chief financial officer, and his wife, Lea, are reported to be engaged in plea-bargaining. Mr. Fastow's testimony will probably lead to charges against other former Enron executives. But it would be a big mistake to conclude that the system is working. It isn't. For one thing, the progress in the Enron case is something of a fluke — sort of like convicting Al Capone for income tax evasion. The charges against Mrs. Fastow don't focus on dubious corporate deals; they focus on her failure to report the personal kickbacks she received from participants in those deals. And it's still unclear whether the company's top executives will ever face charges. More important, in political terms the statute of limitations may already have run out. The political figures with the most direct ties to the Enron scandal, former Secretary of the Army Thomas White and former Senator Phil Gramm, are no longer in office. War and a rising market have, at least for the time being, diverted attention from the role of other political figures whose deference to corporate demands aided and abetted Enron and other corporate malefactors. And that's unfortunate. The wave of scandal was made possible, if not caused, by a political climate in...

...At summer band camp I had a great time. I learned a lot about music, my instrument, and more. This was my second year at band camp and I plan to return to learn more, and stay familiar with my instrument. The band camp was located at scarlet, about a half of an hour drive from my house. I had to wake up at 8:00, get ready, leave at 8:30, and arrive at 8:50-9:00. I usually had 10 minutes to warm up, and than we began. We started by a instructor explaining their instrument, how they warm up, and some thing about it. After that we spilt up into groups with the instructors, they would help us to play and read music skillfully as well as practice the band piece. Next, we went with other instructors who focussed on helping us read music, for example,...

The school year goes by quickly and soon it’s almost summer. On the last day of school I...

...“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent” – Joe from “The Princess Diaries” (and Eleanor Roosevelt) I have been spending seven weeks at Camp Tevya each summer since the summer before eighth grade. My mom had gotten a job as the Head of Arts and Crafts, and she brought my sisters and me with her to camp. I have never been one of those people who are always loud and bouncing around with all seventy of their friends, so it was a bit of culture shock going to camp for the first time. Everybody was very outgoing and always surrounded by their friends. I had a very hard time fitting in and adapting to the overly extroverted environment. This was doubly hard for me as a camper because I was forced to spend my entire day with the same 21 girls, all of whom had already been friends for at least three years....

...f C o n t e n t s Introduction Introduction For many seniors in the graduating class of 2012, senioritis kicked in early March. This was around the time many teachers began assigning projects and AP classes were coming to an end. The senior trip to Disney World, spring break, preparation for AP exams, and the excitement for graduation all made the seniors eager for the summer. The countdown had begun. We thought that a survey focusing on summer was a great idea to get a large sample size since many students would be interested in the topic. Even though, our main focus was the seniors and their thoughts about the summer, we also wanted to know what the underclassmen had to say about this topic. We distributed our surveys to a large population of high school students which included both genders: males and females; and all the grade levels. Personally, we are very excited about the summer of 2012. It's the last summer we get to spend with our family at home and with friends, who we probably won't see again. Most of us have spent previous summers working, playing a sport, going to camp or going on an elaborate family vacation. This led to the inclusion of questions in our survey regarding these topics. For many of us this may not be the case anymore. We will be preparing...

...Hailey Sole is having a great summer. The 13-year-old gearing up for the release of the Netflix series Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. The series is a prequel to the 2001 cult classic Wet Hot American Summer and stars an A-List cast including Paul Rudd, Amy Poler, Molly Shannon, Elizabeth Banks and Bradley Cooper, just to name a few. Many of the original cast members of the film reprised their roles for the series. The film was based at a fictional camp called Camp Firewood during the summer of 1981. It told the story of a group of camp counselors trying to live it up on the last day of summer camp. The 8-episode limited Netflix series will take place on the first day of camp (hence why it is a prequel. In the series, Sole plays...

...E.B. White Once More to the Lake (1941) One summer, along about 1904, my father rented a camp on a lake in Maine and took us all there for the month of August. We all got ringworm from some kittens and had to rub Pond's Extract on our arms and legs night and morning, and my father rolled over in a canoe with all his clothes on; but outside of that the vacation was a success and from then on none of us ever thought there was any place in the world like that lake in Maine. We returned summer after summer--always on August 1st for one month. I have since become a salt-water man, but sometimes in summer there are days when the restlessness of the tides and the fearful cold of the sea water and the incessant wind which blows across the afternoon and into the evening make me wish for the placidity of a lake in the woods. A few weeks ago this feeling got so strong I bought myself a couple of bass hooks and a spinner and returned to the lake where we used to go, for a week's fishing and to revisit old haunts. I took along my son, who had never had any fresh water up his nose and who had seen lily pads only from train windows. On the journey over to the lake I began to wonder what it would be like. I wondered how time would have marred this unique, this holy spot--the coves and streams, the hills that the sun set behind, the camps and the paths behind the camps. I was sure that the tarred road would have found it out and I wondered in what other ways it would be desolated. It is strange...
