Camp camp-ness

There isn't a good word to describe everything we experience and become at camp. If you could combine crazy-amazing-strange-happy-ridiculous into one word, that would do it. Suggestions?

Surfboard races on Luau Night


Our bay on a peaceful morning


The Photo Thing activity with the boys' cabin of Pemaquid


A visit to the seaside village of Camden


Sailing in the Tern


The harbor seals that live across the bay


Our annual hike to Maiden Cliffs for a chapel talk


Making friends with the mannequins at LL Bean

 
Team Mario on Horse Races Night


 My favorite activity every summer: woodstacking with Team Sweat 'n' Splinters



Cooling off in the river, fully clothed


A minor fear of buoys and a loyal friend


Failing and falling at parachute games


Choreographed dancing on Lip Sync Night


Trying hard not to laugh in the game "Honey, will you give me a smile?"


Tied together by a camper, "so now we won't ever have to be apart"


Our version of a gang tattoo - purple big toes - much more easily removed


I think we need help. The camp crazy-amazing-strange-happy-ridiculous has gone too deep. We may never recover.

It's the opposite of being homesick, thus "campsick" is what you & they are!!
