work and such

i have now been at kingsley pines for about three weeks with one of them haveing been training and the others haveing been with campers, it is almost the end of the first session, which has been going on for the last two weeks. the kids that i have will start going home in the morning.
i think that while my cabin is finally starting to run smoothly and the way that it should things need to move on and the kids ned to go home. for the most part the kids that i have are all great ... you know your typical 12 and 13 year ild boys, they think that they can do anythign and that they know everytthing. and they all happen to be very stubborn so naturaly there will be soem clashes that happen when you have these people living in close quters fopr two weeks in a row.. my goal for the whole thing is for these kids to come away from this saying wow that was the best summer of my life and i had a blast, i want to com back next year. who knbows if that will happen or not but i hyope that they can walk away form this being friends with all of the othyer boys that are in their cabin

on anohter note this week was the first week that i got to really dive in a teach high ropes course, it is nice to be out of the training and see all that we learned ap[ply first hand, and i tell you what it is nice to see hoe some of the stuf that i learned in school at unity is applying to the kids here at camp... the best moments of my day are when the kids who are really afarid or hesitant to go up do and meet their goals and do it with a smaile on my face, we had two kids like that today and it was totaly worth while to stand there in the rain and belay them throguh the whole thing, to talk to them and let them ,mnow that they can do it...



well i must go as it is almost dinner and free time is almsot over i need to go and find all of my kids and make sure that they get to dinner

peace
