Are you a seventh grader? Did you sign up for Camp Kieve last year? Then you are in for a blast! Starting next week, seventh graders will ride on a luxurious coach bus heading towards Nobleboro, Maine. The destination they will be heading to is Camp Kieve, the camp where the seventh graders will get memorable lessons on leadership. They will be taught numerous things that would help them in realistic scenarios. These various lessons will be helpful to the seventh graders because they might face the same situations in today’s world. For example, at Camp Kieve, you might be taught about working with strangers that you’ve never known! You’ll have to learn how to be supportive of your teammate, despite the fact that you’ve never even talked with the person in your entire life! This will probably be a paramount moment in your work life. At work, you might have to work with people you generally don’t find pleasant. This will help seventh graders learn vital skills in teamwork.
Camp Kieve will be an experience to the seventh graders, but they must prepare in order to fully enjoy it. They must bring certain personal items-shampoo, sunscreen, and extra socks, e.t.c. Mostly items that would be helpful in the household. Think about it. You do not want to stink the place up with your odor. While you do have tons of things to bring, however, you cannot bring electronics or any school supplies. Just for your sake, don’t bring any expensive things like the non-cheap variety of shoes. Especially if they are the high heel variety. They are going to be ruined since we go outside everyday, no matter the weather. Trust us. You do not want to mess with Mother Nature. Your shoes might look like you came from a warzone. Other than that, just make sure you keep your memories with you!
At Camp Kieve, you’ll be assigned to different cabins. Each cabin is cozy and are in good condition. They have indoor plumbing, electricity, and over 16 bunk beds. Homesickness may occur as these cabins are much different than your home, but adjusting to your new surroundings is easier than most people think. Your window might also have a nice view of the lake! That’s great!
That’s all folks! Camp Kieve will probably be the best time of your life, so for sixth graders, better sign up! You will regret not taking the decision to make another good opportunity to yourself for the future. As the Butterfly Effect goes, one little choice in the past greatly impacts the future, no matter how small. Think of what I said as you will. The world you see today was impacted by the smallest choice, so joining Camp Kieve will also impact the world too. Seems impossible, but is true. See you next year or next week in Camp Kieve!
