Today we slept in after last nights banquet and party. A group of us took a van to Sugar and Spice to have brunch and then it was back to camp to do paperwork and clean up our activities. Because I was doing arts & crafts and drama I had double the amount of work to do. Tracy was going to help with drama as well which was great. But luckily we had other people come and help whose activity didn't take much to sort out.
Like tennis.
Pack up your rackets and tennis balls and you're pretty much done. Arts & crafts looked like a bomb site as everyone uses all the stuff to screen print or make awards and we end up having to clean up all the mess. So Rob (and a few others) came and helped us which basically meant that I didn't even have to touch the drama area. Needless to say we still didn't finish the arts & crafts clean up. It was a really hot day so we went down to the pond for a swim which was so warm and lovely from all the great weather we have had lately.
After dinner some of us went down to the pond where Chris (who was in charge of all the lost property at camp) had a raft with heaps and heaps of socks (you could dress a small country with the amount of socks that ended up in lost and found) and some other clothes that didn't get claimed and weren't good enough to go to the Salvation Army and we had a ceremonial burning. It was surreal and oddly calming watching the socks burning on the raft just floating in the lake.
We had another night up in the pasture with a fire after that but it was just the Sangamon staff.
