N- necklaces- earning beads and all for activities and for years at camp (my new camp has them!)

KP is Kitchen Patrol- it's the setting up of the tables and at least at my old camp it's wiping down the tables again after the meal and sweeping.

P- Passing plates to another foot at another table (at my new camp we call it stacking I believe, but my old camp calls it passing)

Kapers at my old camp (and my new camp too, I believe) is chores. So KP would be the all-camp kaper for that unit for that day.
