Today was Circus Day and the Magen Boys dance so energy was high (due to a perfect combination of junk food and adrenaline;). Obviously the kids had a great time, but from a director’s perspective I witnessed a few moments that warmed my heart and affirmed that all the work we do training our staff and cultivating our culture is paying off:
- Multiple staff on day off participating in Circus Day for the fun of it
- Seniors piggy-backing Juniors between booths and letting them go to the front of the line popular booths
- Campers and staff helping clean up after the chaos without being asked
- Two 13 year old boys “slow dancing” with each other at the dance
- A dance circle around one of our campers with special needs who was rocking out
I’m going to bed proud and grateful and excited to see what the next 2 weeks has in store.
