We finished posting audtion results at 11 pm last night. Those results were sent to the resident halls for resident campers. The commuters came this morning to Northen Hall to see their placements. At 9 am, the high school students met in Northen Recital Hall to meet their directors and follow them to the rehearsal site. (It was so cute watching the little ducklings waddling in a line behind their "parents" for this week).
[Sometimes my vision is blurry. Get used to it. It happens.] Interestingly enough, the daily bulletin has really tiny clues that the campers look for in order to win prizes, and they seem to figure it out. Ask them to tell you who this person is.
Oh-oh. A lost camper?
Here is the junior high school gathering before rehearsal.
