Have you had a chance to meet our Camp Mary Pupkins? Ok, her real name is Vicky but my campers tell me she has all the best qualities of one of their favorite movies, “Mary Pupkins”. I needed some help to keep my campers and my family life balanced, (in that order) and Vicky showed up. My campers love Vicky! She is organized and keeps them on schedule when I can’t. As for the family part of the job, she’s a lot of fun and easy to have around.
I would love for Vicky to stick around forever, but alas, she is looking for a job in Human Resources, which is her area of expertise. Her skills include strategic planning, organizational and leadership development, and employee relations. And this is just a sampling of what she has to offer the corporate world! My loss will be some lucky company’s gain. If you have any job suggestions or would be willing to meet with Vicky, just let me know and I will put you in touch!
My New Orleans campers Dana and Daisy went home on Tuesday. They were adopted by their human parents in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. It’s amazing how far these campers have come, flourishing with the love and compassion their family has shown them! Yossi, our Bernese Mountain Dog, arrived at camp this week. Yossi is our camp Cantor, leading us with his musical tones throughout the day. Okay, I’ll bet you thought howling when I meant singing, but Bernese Mountain Dogs are really quite musical, with an amazing range of sounds. As often happens, Louisa, another Bernese Mountain Dog, also arrived at camp this week. Louisa has been camping with us since she was a pup and always arrives like she is attending her own hanging. She’s never excited to see me until after her parents commit to driving away, at which point she unleashes her enthusiasm and has a great stay at camp. Well … great might be exaggerating a bit, but she adjusts really well and makes the best of things. Dogs, unlike humans, rarely wallow. They find the best in most situations and take full advantage of them. Sure, they miss you, but they are also sure you wouldn’t want them to miss out on a good time, so they don’t!
The Bouviers des Flandres, Emma and Paris, also arrived at camp. The Bernese and the Bouviers will keep each other in good company. Ok, so we have Bernese, Bouviers and Vinny. Everyone needs a Vinny and that’s exactly how he fits into the pack. The moment Vinny disappears for a quiet moment, you can almost hear the other campers ask each other, “Where’s Vinny??” Vinny is a rather quiet and unassuming camper, but he rounds out the pack so nicely. Every pack needs a Vinny. If fact, when we find Vicky her dream job in Human Resources, maybe I will add a Vinny to my pack!
Camp is Good, I hope you are too!
