Camp Names

Staff training has concluded.

The best part of staff training is when new staff pick their camp names.

This year, we had the following:
Wonk
Oasis
Astro Boy
Fresh Prints
Kno Phun
Outhouse
Contagious (but spelled in some different way)
Salmon
Not bad. The goal now is to name a junior counselor "Duotang," one of my favorite Canadian words. I don't know if it will work out though. If only Phen was here, she can talk anyone into any name. It's true.

who had what name? And I was also thinking...what about hymnal for a camp name?

Fresh Prints is my favourite. Oh so clever. I like the name Rock Salt... how about Rock Salt? I think so.
Also, I am jealous because you are at camp.

Sounds like fun. I like camp names, have fun at camp.

my first camp name was going to be "LEGION" but that got canned for obvious reasons...

You just have to get some people on your side and talk it up like it's the coolest. You have to be committed, that's the main thing. After all, this is your camp legacy we are talking about

all you have to do is make people think it's a really cool name. You have to be convinced that it's cool and then be able to convince other key cool camp people to think it's cool. Celia's right about the committment. You can't laugh as you deliver the name. That's a total giveaway.

So where's the update. Did you name anyone? Who named the most? Did anyone try to be finnigan jr?
How is camp in the rain?
Talk to me!!

BUCKO!
You are a funny geek, but er love you anyways. And it is spelled Kontageous. And just so Phen doesnt freak out.... there is a duotang, but fannypack failed. There are, however, a few unnamed juniors coming.
Xeno and Kontageous
