All Camp Slice

All Camp 2014

As I run up the light brown dirt, on the steep hill with my friends at my side. We give limp high fives to the older kids, who stand in a line with their hands out. I find my way through the crowd of people, in silly costumes to the food. I get in line.
While I stand in the line waiting for moderate food, my legs start to get tired from standing so long. But eventually, I get my burger, chips, ketchup, watermelon, and juice bag. I head over to a rock with my friends and sit down. As I eat the food I get more and more nervous about what’s coming soon. We finish the “meal” and head back down the hill. As I take my place on the bright green wet grass, I watch all the horses come out. We all stand for the national anthem, and the horses go around the ring.
I wait for my friends to get off the horses and we walk back up to the steep hill. As I look around I see everyone in silly costumes and bright colors. When we reach the pavilion, we all take our seats. The announcer calls up lower chipeta we go up on the stage and the music starts. We yell a song and do all the “dances” to go with it. Everyone sits down and the next group gets called up and again, and again until all the groups have gone.
We all stand up and sing a few nice songs together, then the music blasts. Everybody dances around and begs for one more song. We finally go back to the cabins, and crawl into bed. So tiered. So sleepy. So drowsy. Then we fall asleep.

  1. This sounds sort of like the camp in North Carolina that I used to go to. I love riding horses and have a lot of experience in riding. Is the food that you get a cookout? Just asking!
