Today, Upper Seniors of the Blue Invaders share what Olympics mean as their last year as a camper.
For some campers Olympics is about winning, but we believe it’s more of the experience that counts. Everything is more meaningful because it’s your last time doing it. In other words, every moment is precious. As Upper Seniors, Olympics is a lot of responsibility, but it is welcomed responsibility. We’re finally getting to do the things we’ve watched others do since our lower junior summer. Olympics is gaining the respect of everyone who helped to mentor us over the years. We are put in challenging situations like Rope Burn and our reactions during the games are just as important as the outcome. It’s being able to lead cheers at team meetings and pass off the enthusiasm to the rest of camp.It’s a way to show our Starlight Pride. Olympics is being speechless after senior hockey and only being able to utter the words “I can’t believe I just did that”. Most importantly, Olympics is understanding what it means to be a role model to the entire girls camp.
