Witty CampDay 1
“Calm down Sher!” Nic, my best friend told me.
“I’m sorry I’m nervous.” I arrived hours before and have been making sure everything is set up. Right in front of the mess hall stood a small stage that Nic, Ryanne, (another one of my good friends,) and I stood off to the side of. All the campers and counselors were standing before it. I took a deep breath and walked up a flight of stairs onto the platform. A roar of applause hit my ears as I was blown back by the wind. I held my lace dress down just in case.
“Hi everyone! My names Sarah but you can call me Sher, which you may know me as already because that is one of my two accounts. I am so excited you are all here and wanted to be here. I am looking forward to an awesome summer! I hope you all got a notification letting you know which cabin you’re in if you haven’t please find me immediately after I am done speaking. This summer we will have some planned events like a dance that will be held in the mess hall. Each day you will have at least one special task to do that you will do with your cabin. You will find out the tasks when you receive a unique note from me. Now if all the counselors will hold their signs up so those who are in them can find you and once you have your whole bunk you may pick your cabin. I am the story cabin counselor so those of you in mine can just stay here. AND once you get to your cabins you will find your first ‘Sher’ note. Thanks!” I took a deep breath and walked off the stage as everyone clapped and dispersed.
“You were great!” Ryanne greats meet as I finally plop down on the ground. A few other campers walking by said ‘hey’ or other various things. “I better go before I lose track of my cabin! See ya later?”
“Okay! Make sure Audrey knows dinner is at 6!” I called to Ryanne as she jogged to catch up with the funny cabin. Right before she gets there she does a cartwheel and then she fell but turned it into a ninja roll.
“That girl never ceases to amaze me.” Nic’s astonished. We burst out laughing.
“Do you really think this is going to work?” I ask her. She stares out in the distance, blank, for just a minute then turns to me and says;
“I think you’re crazy enough that it just might.” She smiles. I have to look up to her because I’m really short. I reach up and give her a hug and she starts walking up towards the cabins. I turn and notice a small group formed still in front. I recognize a few from writing their notifications. This must be my cabin.
“Welcome story quote campers. Since all the other cabins are taken we get cabin number two. So everyone grab your bags and follow me.” We start heading towards the second little house on the hill. The twenty of them go right up the side of the incline. I throw open the little door to find what’s in all of them, eight bunk beds and two single beds, ten cubies on the wall, and a doorway leading to the bathroom. The ten of us filed in and each took a bunk. I notice one of the girls looking around with a questioning look on her face. I read her name tag; xostoriesxo and that_awesome_girl (Randi). I just started reading one of her stories! She finally speaks;
“Where’s our ‘Sher’ note?”
“Right here!” I whip it out of my back pocket. “Would you like to read it?” The girl nods and I hand her the little envelope that she opens carefully.
“Your first task is to paint your cabin. -Sher.”
