 My Second Family is C-A-M-P Feb 23, 2007
|
reviewer: Madeleine Corliss from Andover, MA

| C-A-M-P is marvelous! I learned so much there and made so
many new friends. I had a blast. At first I wasn’t so sure I
wanted to go because I was afraid of being away from home
for almost two weeks. When I got there I cried for about an
hour and then my mom left and I started talking to people
and getting to know them and I didn’t miss home one bit the
whole time because I was having so much fun.
I made so many friends at C-A-M-P. They are the type of
friends who will last a life time. I talk to my C-A-M-P friends at
least once a month. I also talk to the staff at C-A-M-P a lot I
learned so much from them I continually have gone to them
for help on auditions and things like that. Everyone there is so
loving and we truly are one big family.
We are not just going to a camp when we leave our houses to
go to Maine we are going to a second family. On the fourth or
fifth night the whole camp had a fire at the lake and we all
talked about why we were here and how we got there and at
the end of our fire my whole cabin started crying (we were
definitely the emotional cabin). None of us wanted to go home
and our counselor was very confused she was like you guys
still have like a week here. And then we all realized that we
still had a week together and that we should have fun while
we could.
At the end of the camp we have a big performance. We do
things at C-A-M-P that you would never thing a bunch of kids
from all over America could do in not even two weeks. We all
work so hard and because performing is what we all love to do
we have a special bond that you cant find anywhere else. We
all know how important performing is for each other because
we all have that feeling.
When I was preparing for the first talent show I was thinking
OMG I am going to be able to see every ones expressions and
I will know if they didn’t like it or not but when I got up on
stage and looked into my fellow campers eyes all I could see
was a lot of people who really cared if I did well and felt good
about my performance. And let me tell you we did a lot of
standing ovations during those talent shows.
Another thing I was worried about when I first decide to go to
C-A-M-P was if the food was good. I have been to other camps
and at one of them we even had a song for how bad the food
was. At C-A-M-P we have the best food ever! it is so good. I
think gained about 5 pounds from eating so much. But lost it
all because I had the opportunity to dance at least once a day.
All the staff is amazing. They helped us through so much. I
learned so much about myself in those short weeks and I
learned that I can go away from home and I will survive away
form my parents. Which is a good thing to know because I
want to go to a performing arts high school and all of them
are places were I would have to board.
Another thing is that the classes are amazing. In the dance
class that I took we each choreographed a could of three and
put it together and it turned out great. And in my musical
theatre class I had so much fun and learned a lot about what
I can do with my voice. And each of us could give feed back on
our performances so we could get better and better until our
final performance were we knocked everyone’s socks off!
I had a blast at C-A-M-P and I can not say enough about how
amazing it was and how amazing the people I met there are. I
could go on forever about how much fun I had and how much
I love the eleven to twelve day we are there. I love being in
the C-A-M-P family and hope to stay in it for a very long time. |
