all summer, I'm not that crafty and there is no point in making a new one if it is going to be exactly like the old one! In fact, I've used the same design for mine (and colors too) for the last 3 years! It's almost like my trademark or something!

oh, question!
save the best for last or eat it first? I'm thinking in terms of a meal, not including dessert!

SKIP IT!!!! The vids bored me something stupid! And the quizzes confused me... Course that might be my grasp of the English language that caused that!
Reading/Training before Pre-camp or not?

not!
if you could plan staff training would you focus more on fun stuff for the camper - games, songs and crafts or getting people certified in lots of stuff

I would certify as many people as I could without sacrificing too much of the fun stuff!
yes mash the videos bore me to death. I love how as soon as I started to completely freak out the email with the info came to me. Oh goodness I'm a bit of a hot mess sometimes.
