| 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? |
