Oh My God, Kyle!
Patty Peek (not spelled "Peak") was still a counselor when you went!!??
She, and her husband, Bill was there when I went!! Bill was a character, and I recall the last time I saw Patty was up at Michigan State University, in East Lansing! Patty Peek took on the job of Camp Director at least one time during the years I was there. Tough Job!
As for Bruce, can't recall the last name to the "Bruce" I recall, but was he pretty big, with glasses and an R.T. (Respiratory Therapist) who practically would beat on you when you got him for P.D.?? That was the Bruce I remember, but he was a character, too! Him, and Bill Peek did some hilarious stuff when I was there. If this "Bruce" is pretty old, could still be the same one.
As for the Bon Fire, and who the mystery "Flames" were, that was a mystery to the younger campers, but as you got older, you could tell who some of the counselors were who went to light the fire.
Don't know any "Cheeseburgers in Paradise", but most the bon fire songs were "Kumbaya", "Head, Shoulders, ...", "Bear in the Woods", and probably some old Peter, Paul and Mary songs you could sing for the younger campers, and the older campers could tolerate!!
Beaver Call-"I'm a Beaver, You're a Beaver, We are Beaver's all, and when we get together, we give the Beaver Call! *Slapping right hand on top of head* then giving some odd indian-like sound to imitate the beaver's tail hitting water-
I guess after nearly 10 years, It's easy to recall again after almost 25 years, eh?
Because of the rifle range, I had gotten into the hobby of air-rifles. However, the biggest calibur rifle I owned was .22 cal. Was there a female counselor by the name of Lu Beltman? If so, she was the leading counselor on the rifle range, and I had worked with her and another female counselor on the range.
I recall the most popular game was four square. There was the "King's square", and you had to foul out everyone else ahead of you, and avoid being fouled, in order to get to the square.
I got some pretty old photos that I had scanned on my computer!
Candice (ImmortalGoddezz), I didn't know you were from the Michigan Area?!
