parent would forget to forward paperwork or sign something. All paperwork had to be complete to give clearance for the camper to actually attend camp. I was shown some medication administration records as examples to build my own after.

Camping has been an American trend since the 1960s, but to Southeast Asians, outdoor activities are not considered as a “productive” activity. I immigrated from…
However, one of my favorite parts of the job is to watch kids lock their devices in the lockers for the day. It is obvious that this pulls some kids out of their comfort zone, but before long we have the campers reconnecting with each other and nature.…

The turmoil that he and his fellow prisoners were put through is almost unimaginable, and interpreting the excerpt from his novel shows in vivid detail the terrors…
