Favorite all camp/special program to do at camp: I love the play but I also really like Glen’s Game. I tried SO hard my first year to get the climbing wall stamp and i finally got it and i was so proud of myself. Glen’s game is super fun.

Earliest camp memory: Hmmmm that’s a hard one. I would say being shown the basketball courts my first day as a camper by a counselor and just staring in awe of how many hoops there were.

If you had a super hero power, what would it be: Easy, Super Strength. I would say i would be superman but superman is every super power so that would be cheating the question.
