6-18-14

194.
That is the number of steps between the bunkhouse and the bathhouse, which we all utilize daily. 
At least we have a bathhouse. 
We have a bit of a walk to the kitchen facility as well, for meals and fellowship, but again, at least we have a kitchen to use. This experience has taught me to count my blessings.
After today, the interns move to the Willis Dorm, located across the campus, where the bulk of the fishing camp activities will be held. The showers and kitchen are cleaner and all within short proximity (as in down the hall) from where we sleep. All the interns rejoiced over this fact; hopefully we all have a better appreciation for our commonly abused luxuries.

This week has mainly been focused on training the interns in First Aid/CPR and refreshing the lifeguards in their certifications in preparation for the main weeks of summer camp. Tomorrow, all interns, CITs, and volunteers that will be spending nights in the same lodging as campers will have background checks and fingerprinting done, as per UMC requirements.

This weekend is promisingly eventful, with plans for dinner at my grandparents, thrift store shopping competitions, hair dyeing, care package creation, piercings, bonfires, and pit-bull puppies!
