Campers Arrive Today

For those who don't know, I'm working at a camp for kids (and adults) with special needs this summer. The camp is called, "Camp Krem."

This week was training, and I really had a great time. We have about 70 counselors, and I have had the majority to spend time getting to know the majority of them over the course of the week. Fifteen of the counselors came over from Ireland for the summer.

Training consisted of everything from team building activities to sign language and learning how to lift someone from a wheel chair. On Friday night, most of us went camping for a night in Big Basin.

Our first campers arrive today. I'm actually heading to Sacramento in a few minutes to pick up some campers this morning. Our first session goes until next Thursday, and we will have the oldest campers of the summer. I think most of mine are older than thirty.

Well, that's all for now.

Oh, and I have another video. This is from a team building activity that we did, in which each group had to build a boat to carry one of their members across the pool. All we had was cardboard, pvc pipe, a tarp, and duct tape.
