Yesterday when M&M and I walked up the hill to the dining hall, we could hear loud cheering from the campers. I love walking into the dining hall in the morning when the kids are so excited. I am usually not yet awake and sometimes I wish they would be quiet until I've had a cup of coffee, but camp spirit is the absolute best part of my job.
Yesterday wasn't just your typical loud cheering and banging on tables spirit. As we walking into the front door, the entire group of campers and staff were in two lines with their arms outstretched making a tunnel. It was a tunnel of hot teenage body odor and they were all shouting at the tops of their lungs, but as I ran through it, it was magical.
The counselors this summer have done such an exceptional job with cabin spirit. I am often moved, actually moved by the magic of camp.
