You may have realized while reading a previous article about shade that the possibilities of things to do are endless. But what happens when sitting and playing frisbee simply enough? I was just returning from a spirited game of Ultimate Frisbee when I heard what this group so aptly named "The Lurrie Call". They wanted me to photograph the numerous situations they were acting out. Would this make a good story? I asked myself. They convinced me that it would, and so without further ado, I present Shade Antics. |

Here, everyone is simply making funny faces on the steps of Van Winkle Hall. Note the excessive tongue-sticking-out-action of Dave, the nose-picking ability of Virginia, the puffed up cheeks and wide eyes of Kim, the lip-licking action of Jenna, the fish-face of Amy, and the tired Josh Katz look of Josh Katz. |
|
Then suddenly, they all seemed to witness events happening all around them in different places. |
|
Taking a lesson from the ancient Egyptians, the group meticously made a pyrmid (note Kim, a Staff Assistant, being the middle of the base: Staff Assistants are the foundation of the camp). |
|
Darcy found that Josh Katz's lanyard made a fabulous leash. | |
And Virginia found that trees are surprisingly uncomfortable to wedge one's back into. |
|
...but that it is more comfortable to do it to a camper. | |
|
|
Now it was time for some role playing, beginning with switching the roles of campers and counselors. | |
Head counselors apparently refusing to allow campers to switch activities. |
|
Counselors do like to swing their keys. | |
And campers will often try to hide from counselors during what we can only assume was a social mixer in order to stay longer and not be forced to canteen while the music outside blares. |
|
Make-out patrol. | |
Apparently Virginia lost a bet. |
|
Along with Jenna and Amy. | |
Charlie's Angels. |
|
And finally, campers (counselors playing dead). | |
If you feel as if you have wasted three minutes of your life reading a mostly pointless article, I apologize: it was a slow news day. |
