Hi all,
Well, most of you may be too far away to have gone to these camps, but just curious to know if maybe some of you were close enough to go to the camps mentioned in my topic title. Both of these campsare in North Carolina. Camp dogwood is located right on lake Norman, I think close to statesville or moorsville. Camp easter is located in Southern Pines. I use to go to both of them, but stopped after I reached 19.

well law lord, I thought since you were studying the bar to be a lawyer, I just assumed you were intelligent enough to know I was talking about camps for the blind and disabled, my mistake.

Hi Dixie girl,
I can't remember who was director when I left, I remember Clinton holscloth, I'm probably not spelling his name right, he was director, but then he left. The counselors got to the point where they just weren't friendly anymore, and when they didn't have to, they didn't have anything to do with you, and all the folks there were getting more clanish. Most of the counselors were just a couple of years older than I was, and i just didn't like having people only a couple years older than I, bossing me around. I was rapidly getting to the point, where I'd soon be older than the counselors, and for me, that wouldn't work. I just grew out of it I guess.

also, they took most of the books out of the library, and that was my favorite place there, and they stopped sanding the lake, so when I got in it, my feet were always touching that slimey mossy stuff, and the ones who could swim would be so deep, they wouldn't even be touching it, and they said, that's nature, but they didn't have to step their feet in it

Also, counsellors has two L's. But that's just a quibble. The aforesaid Camp dockwood ambiguity was just my little joke, wonderwoman, don't worry. alas, too subtle for some.

Too subtle for our wonderwoman at any rate.

well perhaps it was too subtle becauseI didn't say dockwood, I said, dogwood. d o g w o o d, which is a totally separate thing altogether.
