VERMONT - PITTSFORD







So we got back to camp at lunchtime after our day off and just had normal activities. It was pretty hot so in the afternoon there were barely any kids at Arts and Crafts (naturally there were none at Drama) but that worked out well as I had face masks to cut out for the social that night.
You might have read in my blog about an Australian called Farney. He has been coming to camp for something like 22 years. He is great friends with everyone here and just happens to be the person at camp that everyone hangs shit on.
And he takes it well. Usually just shakes his head at them.
So Jed decided that the theme for the social this week should be Farney. Everyone had to wear a white t-shirt and either jeans or cargo shorts as that's basically what Farney wears all summer. Then he got a photo of Farney's face, had it copied up, got the C.I.T's to cut them out and then I spent the afternoon (with some help) cutting out the eyes. Farney then went over to B.C. to do some accounting for them and we all got ready (as did everyone at B.C.) and then walked over there. It was kind of freaky seeing about 300 people all looking like Farney.
When someone went to get him out of the office and he saw everyone, he was speechless. So the music was all Farney stuff (60's) until they changed it as the kids had never heard it (let's face it, a lot of these kids have not heard much 80's music) and stopped dancing.
Jed ended with John Farnham's "You're The Voice" (incidentally he Farney isn't related to John) which all the Aussie, Kiwi's and a lot of the U.K. guys knew but barely any of the Americans.
