Orientation is just a memory, the air is warming up, and the aspen trees are turning a summer dark green. These things let us know it is June, but they aren't anything like a camp full of kids. Last week 70, this week 150, who knows for next week. There is a special buzz about this staff. They are so eager to love and counsel; it is very encouraging to sit back and just watch their enthusiasm for the kids they have been entrusted with. I'm in awe of them. During the spring I remember trying to figure out why we were so short on staff applicants and why we were scrambling to find staff even through late April. The only thing I could think of at the time was perhaps this is the Lord's way of providing. This job is not easy. I am a sound engineer, a game coordinator, a zipline runner, a public relations specialist, and a million other things because I am a camp director, and having a staff that didn't feel drawn here would be terribly difficult. They are...and they know it. They prove themselves by their actions.
