Annex Week 7

Annex Week 7

Hey Annex Families,

It feels like just yesterday I was meeting these 25 amazing girls in the parking lot and now 7 weeks later we’ve had to say goodbye. We’ve had a fun filled last week here at camp, we were woken up Sunday morning with breakfast in bed served by the subs before we headed down to the waterfront for Subsway! We had a super fun day at the waterfront with slip and slides, obstacle courses and so much more. We had a hawaiian themed day with hawaiian style subs made by the Sub Seniors! And everyone’s favorite ICE CREAM FROM PARTRIDGES!

Also that day… we had SECRET SHOW and the theme was… [Drum roll please]…. ANNIE! The Senior B girls did an amazing job putting the show together! They worked on the opening song and dance for weeks and it was absolutely amazing! The show was followed by closings from Romrec which were very emotional and I think that’s when it started to hit everyone that this was the last week! The following day we had our final campfire the girls all wore their Boston sweaters and presented the camp with their gift they had bought them from Boston which secretly linked to their banquet theme…. FAIRYTALES! I can’t even put into words how proud I am of the girls for all their hard work they put into every single thing they did for banquet. The last week of camp we were non-stop finishing centerpieces, scenery, last wills, menus, plaque and their costumes. It all came together so perfectly and the dining hall was transformed into a beautiful secret garden filled with fairytales whilst they made the ending to their summer ‘16 fairy tale! Everyone was amazed with how beautiful everything looked and the girls were really proud of what they had put together!

It’s been an absolutely amazing summer and I have loved spending every moment with these 25 beautiful ladies. They have truly made an impact on me and their rest of the counselors this summer and we cannot wait to see the impact they leave on camp next summer as ROMREC 17!!

Until next summer
