Reasons Nineteen, Twenty, and Twenty-One

Nineteen:
At Emerald Bay we pride ourselves on "Fellowship and Comrades Lasting". F&CL is one of the things that truly defines the staff, whether they are past, present, or future.

Twenty:
At the end of every campfire we have a story, song, and Camp Director minute. The stories are an important part of camp history. Sometimes the story teller talks about Sam Prentice, the man whose grave is on North Hill; sometimes we hear about Paul C. Hansen, the man who is thought to still be alive in the hills of Catalina, eating wild boar. Or sometimes we just hear about the Wrigleys who used to live on the island. Whatever the story might be, the listener always learns something new about our home on Catalina.

Twenty-One:
We have a new tradition of having a pizza night one Saturday a summer. The dinning hall gets turned into a pizza house, where we create our own pizzas, get numbers for when to pick the pizzas up, and eventually get take out pizza in EB pizza boxes. It is amazing fun. The guys in the kitchen always have fun emceeing the event.
(Oh, and yes, I enjoyed writing "pizza" a gazillion times in the second sentence.)
