We have been absolutely swamped with CVs for resident dry-cleaner.  We thank you for your support and encourage you to apply, but please note the position is not officially available for another three weeks.

Bitter:Sweet

After a terribly drawn-out process, Boris the resident dry-cleaner finally got his green card.  We are all thrilled by his tenacity in his daily dealings with our undoubtedly fickle bureaucracy.  Though happy for his new status, we at the kamp are also sad because he decided to return to accounting-- his profession before he emigrated from Moldavia in '93.  We will host a green-visor party this Friday as a thank you and a send-off for our friend, dry cleaner, American citizen.  Hurrah!

Word of the Day

Callipygian

What's your name?

An attractive lady named Keri called in and asked to serenade our late lunch laxers and evening squash players.  The counselors gave it a bilateral thumbs up and asked that she perform for all the kampers.  She agreed. We are excited.

A few counselors visited a kamp in Brooklyn called The Sloper this past weekend.  Culturally speaking, The Sloper's mission is to expose their kampers to the myriad local institutions of wonderment.  Concerning the flagship attraction, the area hosts one of the tallest cock-towers in the world, which incidentally hosts a phenomenal flea market on the weekends.  We are planning a voluntary trip when the weather warms.  Sign-up sheets will be in the lobby.

Here's to Rick

We would like everyone to take a moment today to thank the lanky one for help with feeding the ferocious kamp katz this past weekend.  Cheers, guy!

Chicken Parmesan

Kamp Koop hosted a Chicken Parmesan dinner-party for key investors this past Friday.  The dinner went well and it looks like we finally have a sponsor for a new facility north of the main grounds where we hope to build a Romanesque bath structure in time for the 2012 summer ornithological summit.

Absence Notification

The Directors of Kamp were on extended leave for the past few weeks.  We collectively apologize for what was most undoubtedly a conspicuous lack of commentary on the message board and would like to buddy-up with a kamp sponsored scavenger hunt in DC.  Departure date is currently TBD.

We've been having so much fun.  Also, don't forget to dance with the hippopotamus tonight.

The Breakfast Burritos

...are missing.  Although we know the no-snitching rule is widely observed by most of the campers and counselours, we'd like to serve brunch.  Please bring them back to the dining hall and remember: amnesty is a cornerstone of our institution.

Afternoon Activities

...will resume today.  Please note that Miss Margene's pickpocketing class is completely full.

Afternoon Activities

...are canceled. Spend your time learning about current events.

Guest Coach

Micky Ward, i.e., The Fighter, recently gave le Kamp Koop's evening squash players a few pointers.  Here is a direct quote from the lesson:

Micky Ward: Yeah. You know, racquetball you slug it out. I hit, you hit. Squash is a chess game, you know. I'm gonna pick my shots to take him down. I'm goin' drop, cross, drop, cross.
 

Bobby: What is drop, cross, drop, cross?
 

Micky Ward: Well, I hit him a drop shot. Then he's gonna go up to protect himself, so it opens up the court and I'm gonna hit him with a cross shot. And he goes back down the court, I go back up to the drop shot. He goes back up the court and I hit him with the cross shot. You know people don't know squash. Thinking you do a lotta damage hittin' somebody with a drop, but you actually do more hitting them with a cross.

Bobby: Wow!
