inspiration

A friend inspired me to begin my own journal, through my time spent looking at his, so here we are...
Today was the first day of staff training for fall weeks at HTOEC. Even having worked 5 summers, I learned so many new games, questions, activities, and teaching techniques I hadn't used before. Each of these and the staff leading them, inspired me to use what I learned and I'm really excited now to continue with the fall. Even though we have just become a new team and are just getting to know each other, the excitement of the returning staff and my trust in the mission of High Trails, inspired us all to, literally, jump into each other arms during the "Birdie on a Perch" game.
