Liquid Sunshine! - with Cricket Snearing - The Day Camp Pod #53
It’s time to learn to dance in the rain, folks!
At day camp we don’t have rainy days, we have Liquid Sunshine, and it’s not raining until we say it is. My brother lives in Seattle, where it rains almost every day, and nobody complains. As we camp directors like to say- “there’s no such thing as bad weather, just inadequate clothing.”
Rainy days are more than a weather phenomenon, they are a state of mind, AND… they are an amazing exercise in PREPARATION- Put your galoshes on people, it’s time to get wet!
