Last night was the first DJ dance of the summer! For those of you who aren't sure what the DJ dance is, it is a night of crazy outfits, fun music, and nonstop dance on the Outdoor Platform. Campers take turns DJ-ing for the event with music from their own iPods and mp3 players.
When I was a camper here, I always had mixed feelings about going to the DJ dance because I never felt like I was a very good dancer and I'm sure I was a little self conscious because of that. However, now that I am a counselor watching my campers get ready for and participate in the event, I wish I had never allowed myself to feel that way when I was younger. It is one of the most enjoyable and energetic nights at camp, and all the campers -- from the youngest to the oldest -- just get a chance to let go and dance. It was wonderful to watch, and I did manage to hop on stage for my personal favorite song of the night, "Party in the USA"!
Now it is Sunday, which around here means...cleaning day! Campers will spend the majority of their morning tidying up their cabins so they are fresh and clean for the beginning of another jam-packed Ballibay week. And just a quick heads up: we will have a wide variety of evening events coming up this week, so I will be on top of it with blog posts!
More soon,
