Reason Eighteen

Staff activities. Fun to be in and fun to watch. Some favorites: lip sync, Halloween and Christmas in July, Pajamajamajam, broom ball, assassin, and much more.

Reason Sixteen and Seventeen

Sixteen:
We used to play beany baby baseball during Aquacade. It was Handicraft versus Trading Post, but players rotated out depending on the demands of their area and needs of the Waterfront. Instead of me describing the game, simply imagine a broken canoe paddle, a damaged beany bear, and a few eucalyptus trees in the middle of the diamond.

Seventeen:
Staff photos from most of the Emerald Bay staff are hung in the dining hall. It is always fun to look at them and see who you recognize. I have found my father, my first director's first year photo, and more. I know that pictures for the upcoming summer's Business Director, Program Director, and Ranger Director are in the dining hall. For two of the three of them, it is the picture when they were CITs, the other is as a ranger. Even my first staff photo is in there.

Reason Fifteen


We have many amazing hikes around camp, going to Arrow Point, Parsons, and Silver Peak, just to name a few. They each are unforgettable in their own way. I love hiking to Arrow Point to watch the sunset. Silver Peak is always a lot of fun. One of my favorite memories is hiking their in the late afternoon on the Fourth of July. When we got to the peak we were able to watch the firework shows from places all along the mainland.

Which ever hikes you chose to take when visiting EB, bring a camera! This is one of the pictures I took from Silver Peak.
