Thanks for coming out to summer camp this year.

I think my favorite thing was watching counselor Burton being chased by all the beavers after messing with their dam.

Do you have something that really stood out to you?

We plan to send out more newsletters throughout the year so be sure to stay tuned.

Regards,
Zach and the rest of the camp counselors

Summer camp may be over but that does not mean the fun has to end!

P.S. Needless to say it was a horrible idea to try and bathe that badger. It wasn't too bad until Counselor Augusta got shampoo in its eye.
I know that stings a bit but I thought the badger overreacted. I mean it just started swinging at us and unfortunately Augusta fell (she was not pushed, I swear) into the badger.

P.P.S. The good news is that she should be out of the hospital in a few weeks.

Letters from Camp:

Hi Campers,

Now that the poison ivy outbreak of 2011 is behind us let's focus on fauna for today.
A local trader has allowed us to borrow a badger to teach an animal husbandry class.

It's kinda smelly so I think the first thing that we should probably do is give it a bath.

Letters from Camp:

Hello campers,

Those of you returning from the nature hike, I hope it was an enjoyable and informative experience of how to identify flora and fauna.
I’ve identified the plant where we had our picnic and it was, indeed, poison ivy.

On the plus side, the aid station just got in a shipment of calamine lotion! Be sure to swing by and pick some up.

Letters from Camp:

Good day campers,

The Water Balloon Olympics were a great success. No one was mortally wounded this year and only a couple campers ended up crying.

Reminder: PB&J sailboats are still sandwiches so please don't try to use them as a sailboat on the lake. All you are really doing is feeding the evil minnows. So thanks for that.

Letters from Camp:

Hi campers,

We hope that you guys enjoyed yesterdays talent show. Wasn't it nice to have all that sliced watermelon as a refreshing treat after the show?

Also please note that we have replaced archery with a class on how to turn your normal PB&J sandwich into a PB&J sailboat. Yum.

P.S. Beware of beavers today. One of our counselors (cough Burton cough) started dismantling the beaver dam so he could build us a new canoe. Have you ever seen angry beavers after you’ve stolen all their twigs?!


Letters from Camp:

Hello campers.

Well I made a valiant effort to retrieve the canoe but I ran into a nasty gang of minnows. There must have been at least a hundred of those man eaters.
I mean really, I was lucky to escape with my life.

P.S. There was some loud commotion last night coming from outside of bunkhouse #4. I’ve been questioning people, but nobody’s talking.
I am convinced that it was the minnow gang.
