Video from Rick Recht's Performance

The summer may be over at GSC, but reliving the fun is not! Throughout the year we'll be updating this blog with news, pictures, podcasts (plenty that were recorded during the summer as well as newly recorded ones), and videos from the summer of 2008 and beyond!

This first video is provided by Rick Recht and captures some of the fun from his July 22 performance at Golden Slipper Camp.

Rick Recht Rocks GSC (Podcast)

On Saturday, July 22, GSC turned into a concert arena as Rick Recht arrived and rocked out for several hours. The fun started before dinner, when Rick met with several bunks to say hello and teach them some of his songs. You can hear the Rick Recht PreConcert GSC jam session in the first podcast below.

Rick received a thunderous GSC welcome when he entered the Dining Hall during dinner, and enjoyed us celebrating a GSC-style birthday. He was so overwhelmed by our spirit as we danced to Listen To Your Heart that he and his band learned the song after dinner so they could cover it during dinner. After that it was time for his concert, which was awesome and featured many campers and counselors singing or playing guitar on stage during different songs. There are many pictures on the GSC Photo Site, specifically in Rick Recht Set 1 and Rick Recht Set 2.

Finally, afterwards, Rick met and chatted with each GSC camper while signing autographs. Some of the podcasts below contain interviews with campers during the autograph session, while others feature songs and cheering from bunks that were waiting to meet Rick. Enjoy!

Welcome to 2nd Encampment!!!

We are now 24 hours into 2nd encampment, and life is AWESOME at Golden Slipper Camp!

The camp-wide fun started when seven buses of campers arrived at Golden Slipper Camp. We meet as a camp family at the main campfire site to officially start the encampment, and then dismiss each bunk one at a time. Each bunk stops by the flagpole first for a bunk picture!


The fun continued last night with the GSC Welcome Show, which is when our counselors and staff members put in skits, sing songs, and otherwise act silly to welcome the campers to camp. Be sure to check out the pictures from the GSC Welcome Show!

Tonight is a big night at GSC: Rick Recht is performing a concert right here! Be sure to check back tomorrow for pictures and a report of the performance! As always, we welcome your feedback, ideas, and suggestions for GSC or the blog! And if you haven't checked out Twitter yet, be sure to join and follow the Golden Slipper Twitter feed!
