The Summer of 2008 is Underway

Hello Slipper Family!

It's only June 22, but the summer of 2008 is well underway. Currently, all 120+ members of our staff are here and making sure that GSC is ready for the arrival of campers on Tuesday afternoon! We have staff from many states across America -- Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Colorado, Virginia, California, Texas, Florida, and Washington, D.C., to name a few. We also have staff from several different countries, including Israel, Germany, Czech Republic, Australia, Great Britain, and Sweden.

Friday night we played a Staff Trivia Game, and last night we had a Staff Campfire complete with stories, games, skits, and sung songs featuring Uncle Adam E. on guitar and Uncle Jarad singing. Myself and the rest of the staff have been having a great time here in Bartonsville, but we can't wait for Tuesday when the rest of you arrived.

Check this blog regularly for more updates on the world of Golden Slipper Camp, which will include news, questions, and other items created by our campers and staff, as well as podcasts featuring campers, staff, and evening activities. Also, be sure to check out Golden Slipper Camp's pictures, which will be taken by Aunt Katie from Australia this summer! Also, be sure to join our Camper & Family Social Network or Staff/Alumni Social Network (18 years or older, please) so you can follow our video updates.

In the meantime, feel free to leave a comment if you have any ideas or news you'd like to share with the Golden Slipper community!

Sincerely,
Uncle Brando

As the mom of 2 second year campers, McKenna & Patrick Gibson I am so appreciative of this site. It allows me to deal with my separation anxiety (thankfully, none on their part this year!) and see my kids on daily basis. You guys are simply the best! Thanks for all that you do. Enjoy first encampment. With warm regards, Mary Gibson.
