Ha. That's Hindi for Hello. No, I'm not Indian... But I didn't want to do the usual "hi!" But, hi! :)

I hail from Virginia, but my home is in Colorado. But I work summers in Jersey. (Didja follow all that?) I find these forums pretty fun and informational. See, my camp isn't really a "camp" but it falls under Christian Camping. It's more of a retreat and conference center. We hire a group of high school and college staffers for the summer to staff the center. As a staff supervisor, my job is probably close to being a camp counselor. It's kind of like high school camp but for the whole summer... and I've got 25 of them (with a male partner) that I'm responsible for. Oh yeah, this is my 11th summer in a row on summer staff.

So, yeah. I joined because there are some "campy" things we do, and there have been resources that I've found pretty helpful on camp sites.
So hi. Nice to meet you all. :)

His,

namaste actually means "the divine in me recognizes the divine in you" just so you know

Yeah, but it's the equivalent to "hi" when you're in India and Nepal. That was easier to explain and type out. :)
