There was an enormous Y shaped piece that they noticed first. I told them that my dad and I had discussed making a giant slingshot for the slingshot range. There is a huge arrow that is above the archery range, so we thought it would be cool.

Property Manager T was standing there when I told the visitors about the wood and he commented, "I never knew that!"
Assistant Director A and 'T' have been up to something all week. They have spent a lot of time whispering and going off to work on things alone. I knew they were up to something and then I found out both 'M' and 'K' knew too.
Finally today during rest time, they all came and got me and said, "are you ready for your surprise?" They brought me to the range and there was a giant slingshot!
Possibly even better than the cool new addition to the range was 'T's reaction to the whole thing. He wasn't at the range when I got there and then we all saw him drive by, not looking at us while we were down there. He was super nervous/awkward about it. I am not sure if he was nervous that I would be mad he'd finished my dad's project or if he was just nervous I wouldn't like it. I went to the pole barn to find him and thank him and rave about how cool it turned out.
I think it is one of the nicest, most thoughtful surprises I've gotten at camp. I really appreciated the thought behind it. Plus, it's super cool looking and will make our slingshot range even better!
