T - Trying not to keep emailing your camp director millions of questions about the upcoming summer, like what programs there will be, who has responded to their return invitations, what she has planned for pre-camp, is the packing list different at all...etc :P

U- uploading videos that you've made of yourself singing a particular camp song that you love!
theme- reasons you're excited the camp pre-season has begun! (if you don't know already, I keep posting the theme because then those who are new to the theme don't have to go searching for it and it's a nice reminder to all of us in case we forget and all, but don't feel like I'm obligating everyone to post it!)

C - Cars. High gas prices? Maintenance? Nonsense, just leave it in the parking lot all summer long and kindly ask the ranger to jump your battery at the end of summer. Be sure to clean off any spider webs before leaving!

Ugh, I hate when I'm at camp and people still expect me to answer. I have a "camp" voicemail message now that's basically "I'm out in the woods, I'll get back to you when I can!"
I - Internet. I don't miss facebook, I don't miss the internet. I do sometimes wish I had Google in my brain for camper questions, and I don't miss having to check my email.
