alrite..so last weekend..went to a camp...it was a sjab camp...n it was the first time our division held a joint camp w/ another one...i thought it was really good..so herez da rundown of wut happen..
friday: everyone arrived on dis day...n da first thing everyone had to do...dey were given a map of the place..n dey had to find their thru the place to find our campsite..following a specific path given...well u may tink dat it would b easy...but when derez no flashlights n w/ everything on their backs..da campers were struggling....well sum campers got to sleep in tents outside..sum were in a lodge...n sum were in a train..i had to take care of the ones in da train..so i got to sleep in it...kool place to stay in..also ..sumtime ago..da first time we went to a winter camp...one of our officers got their van stuck in mud..n we had to pull it out of the park...well dis yr..da same offiicier got a vehicle stuck..but dis time it was a truck (cuz he had to bring all our firewood) man it took us a total of 7 hours to get it out dis time...when it was all said done finally got to bed at around 3am....
sat: everyone in their groups juss going thru the different stations..dere were axe/knife usage...fire-starting...emergency shelters...knotting n stove usage...well da typical basic camp stuff..cuz a lot of the campers were first time campers....well what was really kool was seein like 13 yr old kids....bein able to make their own fires n cookin their own food on it...yah dat was a big thing dis camp..teachin dis spoil kids a thing or two bout independence..dey had to cook two meals on their own...clean their own dishes...n many other things......campfire dat nite was amazing..due to all da firewood we had..sang sum campfire songs ...da skits dat da kids did was wicked hahaha...one of dem was completely makin fun of me tho..but i totally enjoyed it...
sat nite: so about 2am we woke everyone up...blowing our emergency whistle signal..well i can say dat i was totally disappointed in the campers...took dem around 20 mins to wake up...man if it was a real emergency...i wouldnt have waited 20mins...i would of like waited for 5 mins den i was off..to save my own butt...but i hope dey learn da lesson behind it..dat n e thing can happen n dey have to b ready....a lot like first aid..u may never need to use it in ur life..but when u do..u better kno wut ur doing....honestly tho..dey had it so easy dis yr..juss woke dem up n did very little thing..finished in an hour..man last summer..we were up at 3am..n da thing lasted till like 5 or 6am...
