~Camp Evergreen In Character~
-
Well, it's that time of the year again. Time for the counselors to be re-hired, the activities to be planned, and the campers to arrive. Here at Camp Evergreen, we do all of the typical camp things: roasting marshmallows, throwing eggs and shaving cream at each other, and swimming around in the maybe-a-little-less-than-clean lake that we're hanging out around; however, there is something a little unique about Camp Evergreen:
It's run by college students!
The camp was established as a way to give college students a 'leadership opportunity', but honestly, we don't know who thought that that was a good idea. When we were given full reign of the camp, we were given a very strict rule book... which may or may not have ended up in the garbage can shortly after the sponsors left. Now, look, we still follow the basic rules: No fighting, no blowing things up, no leaving the camp grounds alone-- we're just a little more relaxed on things like curfews, boys and girls being alone together, no cell phones, and things of that nature.
Well, campers, Camp Evergreen opens in just a few days, and it's time to claim your spot. It's going to be a wild summer full of new opportunities, growth, friendships, heartbreak, and even a little bit trouble.
Counselors:
If you are interested in being a counselor, your character needs to be in college and at least past their Freshman year. (19+) Each counselor will be designated a group of campers that they are "in charge" of, these are the campers that you will become the closest to. While you will not be monitoring their every move, you will be in charge of walking with them to activities and checking in with them to make sure that they are enjoying their stay. Counselors will also have to take part in the meetings that the director has each morning where they plan activities and talk about any issues that have come up. Counselors will stay in a cabin with their campers.
Campers:
Since our camp is focused on high school students, if you're interested in being a camper, your character will need to be high school age. (14-17) Other than these qualifications, you have free reign to design whatever character you want. You will have a few rules that you need to abide by: No drugs or alcohol, no fighting, no swimming unless there is a lifeguard present, no going off alone, and a few other small things that will be addressed when camp begins.
Well, that's about all!
Since this will be a much smaller summer camp and there will only be small groups with each counselor, it allows campers and counselors to create their own little family. Everyone will get to know each other for better or for worse, and when it comes time to leave, it'll be rough. BUT, for now, let's make the most of our time together!
Some important info:
