LINDY PERRY: CAMP MOM
AT THE BEGINNING OF CAMP I LIKE TO REMIND THE
girls that we are a family here at Wavus. I have had the pleasure
of watching most of these girls grow up from a young
age. This summer I got a little teary because my first cabin as
a counselor (Mohawk 2013) made it to Maine Trails. I was
also thrilled to have 14 campers come back as counselors this
year! Every year on the last day of camp I like to take a picture
with all of my campers. I give a brief timeline of when I had
each group and get a family photo together. As a counselor I
often had the younger age group first session but as you can
see this year some earned their blankets and paddles, some
hiked 200 miles and some are in the back in green Wavus
polos. I have great pride in being a role model to my campers
and smile every time I am called “mom” or even “grandma”
around camp.
Although my years as a counselor are over, I love watching
my camp children continue to grow at Wavus.
