Independence Day, plus Podcast 06: Sam Barriskell and Brittany Manzano

A lot of activity has happened since our last formal post (plenty of Twitter posts have been added. You can see them at the top of the blog, or by following the GSC Twitter Feed). For starters, it rained a little bit on our Independence Day celebration -- dubbed "Spoonapalooza" -- but that wasn't enough to ruin our day. We began by celebrating Uncle Tom O'Neill's 2 year anniversary as Director of Golden Slipper Camp, then had a spirit contest, which was won by Bunk D. The day ended with an Independence Bash, DJed by Aunt Sarah Beebe.

We also recognized our the Honor Bunk in each village. The Honor Bunk is the cleanest bunk each week. The winners for cleanest bunks were:

Strauss - Bunk D
Vogelson - Bunk 6
Friends - Bunk G
Kadden - Bunk 8
Council Girls - Bunk P (Waitresses)
Council Boys - Bunk 14

Thursday night was Slipper Book of Records, and we are busy updating our record book. We'll share that here once it is ready. During the activity, I interviewed 10 different groups of campers about their first week of camp, their counselors, and anything else they wanted to share. I am working hard to prepare those files for the internet. The first one is ready and you can listen to GSC Podcast 06 by clicking the link. It features Sam Barriskell and Brittany Manzano, two campers who are having a lot of fun at GSC!
