Lower Camp girls really brought out the “creative” in Creative Writing this week while completing a poetry bracelet project. The girls wrote poems about Camp Starlight and then completed the project by transferring them to star shaped shrink dink paper. The resulted charms were completed by beads and, voila! Starlight thoughts to wear around their wrists year round. The bracelets were adorable (so adorable, in fact, that we included a photo of one), but the poems were amazing…so amazing that we couldn’t resist sharing a couple of them.

Camp Starlight is the best,
It really beats the rest!
I go to dance every time I get a chance.
Panic is so fun, remember you need to PANIC!
And then you need to RUN!
Bedtime may not be your favorite time,
But when a new day comes tomorrow,
It will be time to rise and shine.
The food here is great,
Especially the churros and ice cream cake.
You’ll hear everyone scream and shout,
When Olympics breakout.
When Camp Starlight is done and you go home,
The Alma Mater will be stuck in your head.
Try singing it before you go to bed.

Camp Starlight is amazing!
I always love where we swim in the lake.
We even get to make cake!
I also love the things we make.
At nighttime we tell some bedtime stories.
Our secret snack every night.
We eat bite by bite.
We also get snacks from the snack shack.
So we don’t have to pack.
