| WHERE ARE YOU? In a remote valley of the West Virginia Appalachians. |
| Tiptoeing out of the cabin, you pause at the bottom step as a
Phoebe flies in to feed her young under the eaves. You head down the
path for a walk.
Coming out into the field, you surprise some deer who are
grazing there. They freeze in place and then bound into the nearby
thicket. You cross to the pond, smell the crushed mint underfoot and
stop to pick a leaf to chew on. Dragonflies are already patrolling
their territories, and Red-spotted Newts are floating just under the
surface. Crouching down, you catch a newt and let it walk back off your
hand into the water. Along the bank you see fresh digging and tracks --
a raccoon has feasted on a turtle nest and left the eggshells
everywhere. |
| HOW DO YOU KNOW? From the BCWS staff, and from doing a
project
of your choice.
The "polar bear" swimmers arrive and invite you to join them
for a wake-up dip. Then you all return to the main lodge, but stop
suddenly: a harmless Black Rat Snake is lazily crossing your path. Then
the old farm bell rings, so you continue on to breakfast, leaving him
to his. |
| WHO ARE YOU EATING WITH? The whole camp fits at 6
tables, including the dynamic, inventive staff who help make up this
friendly, non-competitive community. And the food is really good!
As you talk, joke, and sing with others at your table, you wonder what will be offered for choices that day....Leaf printing tee shirts? Sinkhole hike? |
