CGM 2013: Staff Week Begins!

We kicked off the 2013 camp season with the arrival of our camp counselors on Friday. We train our staff for a week prior to sessions beginning - these trainings range from CPR/First Aid to planning the chapel program to making nametags to discussing the meaning of being a camp counselor and more.

After unloading in our cabins, we started out staff week with a camp tradition - Compline:

We then broke into a jam session, singing all our favorite camp songs by request:

After that we had a bonfire down by the cabins, started by our very own Eagle Scout and counselor Winn:

Jillian, Phil, and Cody, our oldest three counselors, led a discussion about camp being family:

Then the night was capped off with the inaugural trip to Sonic for 1/2 price shakes after 8. The first of many trips...

Happy staff week!
