SUMMER CAMP

Most summer campers have their arrangements all line up and now that school is out they're ready to go. It may be a little late to formulate plans at this point but one never know how far and where the worldwide web may float on your screen with an invitation. I've just read an article about a camp being held throughout the summer, giving an opportunity for all age groups at different times of the summer.

"At the sound of the morning bell, upper and lower bunks spill campers from open air cabins scattered through the woods. We stretch our bodies before moving to a meditation grove at the edge of the woods for a few minutes of quiet before breakfast. Outdoor play, games, crafts, sports for kids and workshops for adults sees the morning flit by. Family camp activities fill the afternoons, punctuated by gatherings when we sing songs accompanied by guitars.

After lunch there is sports and after dinner the evening sounds of campfire revelry and talent shows fill the evening air. Why is it so special? Camp seems to meet you and offers gifts, wherever you are in your life, stripping away the superficial aspects of life, - television , excessive sugar, computers, telephones and junk foods, and gives us a taste of freedom by accentuation with what we love most, experiencing what it feels like to live close to nature, served food that is good for the body, spend most of the day with family and friends, eat, learn, quiet moments and play with the same group of people," continues Corinne Cayce, great granddaughter of Edgar Cayce who has attended camp each summer, first as a camper and then as a helper.

"As cars are packed at the end of camp there is an indescribable ache in the heart, a longing to linger. Campers are allowed to touch that place within themselves that is most loving and most awake," adds Corinne.
