Jello, Flour, and Water, oh my!

Staff Week is coming to an end, Camp McGovern, and we welcomed our new friends with a #ThrowbackThursday camp wide game and the long awaited naming ceremony. It took hours to find the right names for our team members, but after much debate and several votes we came together to give the staff some well earned names (looking at you, Spinach). We've all worked very hard this week to learn new things and form a team that everyone could be proud of. 

Between First Aid training, programming, team building, games, and campfires, the McGovern Family has had an exciting week. 

Today has been filled with a flurry of paint covered staff, making a beloved part of camp fresh and new again. I won't tell you where, just know that it's a place I used to spend almost every day in my first two years on staff. All our campers will definitely be excited to see it all bright and beautiful. 

I want to list all of our staff members so that you know who I'll be talking about this summer:

• Twist - Director
• Spinach - Program Director
• Sassy - Assistant Director
• Marvel - LEAD Coordinator
• Urban Legend - Head of Care Staff
• Polaris and Boost - Head Counsellors
• Switzerland - Nurse
• Snackpack, Crescendo, Acrylic, Anakin, Acoustic, and Hoola - Female Counsellors
• Boost, Dragon, Tech, Aslan, Zookeeper, Mahogany, and McFly - Male Counsellors
• Linoleum and Shimmy - LEAD Counsellors
• Minnow - Lifeguard
• Ohana, Pterodactyl, S'Mores, Greyjoy, and Ink - Care Staff
• Coach and Graphic - Cooks

Everyone is bursting with excitement and ambition to start the summer sessions and our old friends have been telling so many stories to help each other learn the spirit of Camp McGovern. Pull out your water shoes from the back of the closet and start singing camp songs, it's time for an unforgettable summer.
