That week at camp was the single highlight of my year (even more exciting than Christmas). Archery, tubing, and camping were fun, but my real passion was arts & crafts. I was kind of an indoors kid: I'm sure this doesn't come as a surprise to you. My afternoons were filled with magazine collages, glitter, and mastering the exotic art of Popsicle Stick Box Making (this is a staple camp craft right here). Each summer, I brought home a fresh collection of friendship bracelets, painted ceramic animals, and dream catchers to decorate my room and enhance my indoor lifestyle as I endured the fifty-one week long wait till I could return to camp.
