Kids!

hey,
so tomorrow is the day! kids will be here!
the last month has been divided into set up and then training, so it has been a long time in a big camp with just staff. I am currently on time off, we have had a little bit of time to refresh before we start, most of the staff either spent thier time in ashland, duluth, or stayed headed home if they didnt live too far away. it was so nice to put our "weekend off" clothes on and relax.
We will start off the summer kind of short staffed, but have chosen to just kick on with who we have. We have been a little unlucky in staffing, but the staff we do have right now have been amazing in picking up how camp runs and what goes on.it should be fine, just a bit more work between a few more people. My first trip this summer will be down to the apostle islands, just west of bayfield. I will have a co counselor and a nice small group of kids so i cant wait! As trip counselor, we have been reviewing our trip program progression in general, and are so excited to be doing the trips were doing this year, and also have a tonne of ideas and locations for new trips next year.
We also just recently moved into the platform tents, it is so nice to be back in those. They are so big and cool at night, which is awesome after how hot it is here during the days.
Well its back to work at 6pm so until i write more,
Erin
