What do you do when it’s 7:30am and the power is out in the camp building? Get ready for camp anyway! That’s what happened this morning. We all came into work to find that only a few lights were on and we were running on a generator, which sadly started slowly going out on us. We found all the flashlights that were in the building so the camp teachers could start gathering their class supplies.
It was rather entertaining to walk by one of the supply closets and see a teacher holding a flashlight between their chin and shoulder while they collected stuffed animals out of the bins.
The three classes that are set up in our auditorium had to find alternate space since that room has no windows. Tables were set up right outside their classroom door, and the little spare space in the exhibit hall.
Lucky for us, the power returned just as camp kids were arriving, so they didn’t have to stay in the dim light for long.
